PASSED ON

The inheritance of the spirit is one without any tax. It is a combination of elements from the one all mankind receives to the ones we get from our family.

What is passed on is all the parts of desires that compose our nature. Some we have from what we are born with.

Now some choose to ignore this fact. They presume that born again means God will change ever flaw in our lives.

In extreme cases this becomes an attitude where one actually decides they never sin any longer. Not that we should boast when we do, but neither is it wise to pretend.

It really is hard to always be able to understand how some think. They make it sound as if it is possible to be perfect in this life.

Thus is the regrettable decline that life takes when we stop accepting the need for forgiveness. To think we are so mature we never do anything wrong.

But the sadness is when nothing can change that view. There are no words you can say to somehow free the person from that deception.

So they just end up continuing to live in that delusion they have no real problems. And this always get worse.

There is no end to where it will spread in one’s thinking. Eventually you can’t even admit to any mistakes.

I am grateful that the Lord has helped me to embrace the concept of grace. You don’t have to be perfect, just forgiven.

And you never know when some attribute that was passed on will cause a problem. It will always be a possibility.

So what happens will depend on the person. There are those that will come to a point of truth and others who don’t.

How sad it is when this happens to the bad. When a person just never is willing to accept being saved and a sinner.

So instead they will just keep living in that world where not facing the truth is their form of bliss. And happy with that choice.

Meanwhile for those willing to listen. There is the joy of walking free. Not by some excuse, but with truth.

Including the fact that it is okay to be yourself with all the flaws that exist.
