Disobeying God is sin. With sin, no man can reach God. Disobeying the word of God does not have excuse before God but only lead to consequence. Is sin and sinning your way of life? Adam and Eve violated the word of God and there was no reasonable excuse for their sin. Truly, Adam did not ask God for woman helper it was God\u2019s idea for Adam to have an helper as documented,<strong> <em>\u201c\u2026But for Adam there was not found a helper comparable to him.<\/em><\/strong><em> And the\u00a0Lord\u00a0God caused a deep sleep to fall on Adam, and he slept; and He took one of his ribs, and closed up the flesh in its place.\u00a0<sup>\u00a0<\/sup>Then the rib which the\u00a0Lord\u00a0God had taken from man He made into a woman, and He brought her to the man.\u201d (Genesis 2:20-22)<br \/>\n<\/em>God\u2019s response to Adam\u2019s sin and Adam\u2019s excuse for his sin is recorded, <strong>\u201c<em>Then the<\/em><em>\u00a0<\/em><em>Lord<\/em><\/strong><em>\u00a0<\/em><em>God called to Adam and said to him, \u201cWhere<\/em><em>\u00a0<\/em><em>are<\/em><em>\u00a0<\/em><em>you?\u201d<\/em><em> So, he said, \u201cI heard Your voice in the garden, and I was afraid because I was naked; and I hid myself.\u201d And He said, \u201cWho told you that you\u00a0were\u00a0naked? Have you eaten from the tree of which I commanded you that you should not eat?\u201d Then the man said, \u201cThe woman whom You gave\u00a0to be\u00a0with me, she gave me of the tree, and I ate.\u201d<br \/>\n<\/em>Adam\u2019s excuse does not count before as the Lord God dealt him with the consequences of his sin. Be warned, know and understand that sin and sinning is not excusable before God. As a temple of God, are you taking care of your temple God? It is written, <strong><em>\u201cDo you not know that you are the temple of God and that the Spirit of God dwells in you?\u201d (1 Corinthians 3:16)<\/em><\/strong> For real, as a believer, do you not know that you are the temple (House) of God? As regard to the temple of God (you) the bible stated, the consequence of not knowing to take care of the temple of God, <strong><em>\u201cIf anyone defiles the temple of God, God will destroy him. For the temple of God is holy, which temple you are.\u201d (1 Corinthians 3:17)<\/em><\/strong> Are you defiling the temple of God in you? It is important for man to be keeping the temple of God. God will not accept any excuse for the failure to be keeping temple.<br \/>\nJesus, by His word and action clearly demonstrated the intolerance against not keeping the temple. Once, He drove out those who bought and sold in it. (Luke 19:45) Jesus declared the violation of the temple, <strong><em>\u201cMy house is a house of prayer, but you have made it a den of thieves\u201d (Luke 19:46)<\/em><\/strong> Are you violating His temple or you are elevating His temple?<\/p>\n<p><strong>Prayer for today:<\/strong> <em>Ask God for the grace not to be a failure in all the calling of God upon your life.<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>FAITH CAPSULE: Sin and sinning is not excusable before God.
