we all have a past... I don't care how righteous you are now... because man is born into sin... you still have a past... your past may not be as shady as someone else's... but it is not clean either...
do you realize that God does not see degrees of sin... the bible tells us that if you have committed one sin then you have committed them all... He sees murder the same as He sees a lie... He sees adultery... the same as slander... there are no better sin or lesser sin... we ALL have fallen short of the glory of God...
the bible tells us that David had a heart after the heart of God... he had a heart LIKE God... yet David committed murder and adultery... and he had a heart like God... bigger than that... when he confessed his sin and turned from it... God was gracious and forgave him...
what is it that makes us judge someone else? what is it that makes us decide someone should be this or should not be that... what is it that makes us keep dragging up someone's past when we don't see it as their present? just like you want your past to remain in the past... so does everyone else...
Job was a righteous man... and when He questioned the authority and plans of God... God said to him... WHO DO YOU THINK YOU ARE??? did you form the earth... did you make man? can you stop the day from going forth?
if God has allowed you to be placed in authority... allow God to order your steps... if you are not in authority and cannot make decisions... there is a reason God didn't put you up there... know your place and stop trying to do someone else's job... because I promise you that 'VENGANCE IS MINE SAITH THE LORD...' and the wrath of God is no joke...
