(I could have said, Robbing God Shortchanges You and Others Too)
In this video I chart and explain the life of...
An unsaved person,
A person saved at an early age and faithful for a lifetime,
A person saved (either early or late) but living a vacillating life of sin and repentance.
The more often and the longer that a believer turns from God, the less likely he will return in repentance and the more of the will and calling of God will be lost to that individual.
We are not called to master our own lives, we are called to surrender our lives.
Even in God is willing to forgive us time and again, we err in thinking that we are necessarily going to repent and return to God after we have rebelled and turned from following Him.
Straying from God robs a person and others. The wanderer loses time with God, graces from God, the leading of God, the blessings of God, the power of God.
They lose personally. they lose in their marriage, they lose with their children, they lose with their friends, they lose on the world scene of winning the lost to Christ.
