Description: Episode 47 of The Grace to Love Again I have given her time to repent of her sexual immorality, but she was unwilling. And God says to us, I have given her or him time to repent of their unbelief, but they were unwilling and unbelief, even though we have not understood it, is a far greater sin than sexual sin. There is a time when sex is good and godly, it is a gift given to us by God, created by God. There is never a time when unbelief is good or godly and it was not created by God, it was created by Satan. He says that we show him contempt, the one who made us. We haven't understood that this isn't just an issue of, well, I either have strong faith or I don't, and if I have strong faith, God will answer my prayer. But if I don't, I guess He won't. And, well, maybe I can live without that. No, that is not what the issue is. The issue is that you do not believe God, or you believe God. And apparently if you do not believe God, it is a great wickedness against him. You cannot believe God for eternal life, like you you've never seen God, you've never seen hell. You've never seen heaven. So you can't be afraid of, Oh man, if I, you know, I'm afraid of this place called hell, why you've never even seen it. Well, because you have faith. I really want to go to this place called heaven and have eternal life. Why you've never seen it. Nobody's even proved to you. It exists. You have faith, you believe, and you bank your entire eternal destiny on this thing called faith, being sure of what you hope for and certain of what you do not see. But when God tells you to trust him for a check or a spouse or a new job or a new career, or this trip to wherever that church where you are? I have I I don't know. And when the first little circumstances come up and contradict, we begin to doubt it is a terrible, terrible wickedness that we have inside of us.
