Re: Sinful housework
So at the judgment many religionists will be gearing up to see God judge them on how well they kept their little list of commandments. However, as each thought and action is reviewed, the eyes of God will be looking to see how each thought and/or action demonstrated that one loved Him by loving others. God will not be impressed with hairstyle, dress, ornamentation or the lack thereof. God will not note what church one attended. Nor will God be impressed with how "moral" one seemed to be. God will simply be looking for one thing... love. If a thought and/or action was grounded in a love for God and a love for others... one will be rewarded. If not... one will suffer shame and loss.
Sadly, for most religionists their little lists have become standards by which they judge others... not love others. In this there is a total reversal. What was intended to impress God through religious performance becomes the very thing that brings condemnation.
