Jeremiah 22:19


"He shall be buried with the burial of an ass, drawn and cast forth beyond the gates of Jerusalem."


This verse speaks wicked to me. If there is a man who has died and is sentenced to be buried like a useless animal and cast from the pure land of Jerusalem itself, it clearly means that he has a history of wicked and evil that fills his pages. To not be seen worthy in the eyes of the Lord is an obstacle that sends chills down every human who thinks of the second coming and judgement day. To know that you could be the person who is cast off beyond the gates of Jerusalem is the scariest knowledge of all. I suppose if you are worthy of committing the sins, you are worthy of living with the consequences that follow with them.


Sometimes it can make a person wonder what is considered a sin. What is the difference between a huge sin, a little sin and everything in between? Who has been given the right to punish those who have done wrong? If someone has done wrong, do they have the chance to redeem themselves before they are sentenced to everlasting hell?


The answer is no one. No one on this earth has the right to judge any other person. The only person who can judge you is yourself and your heavenly father when judgment day comes to pass. If an obstacle or temptation comes into your life and you fall into the depths of that temptation, your mind automatically knows right from wrong and you will know that you have done wrong.... After all, you carry the spirit of the lord because he sent you here on purpose. I believe that there is a chance for redemption. It's called repentance!!!!
