Dominion and fear are with Him, He maketh peace in His high places. Is there any number of His armies? and upon whom doth not His light arise? How then can man be justified with GOD? or how can He be clean that is born of a woman? Behold even to the moon, and it shineth not; yea, the stars are not pure in His sight. How much less man, that is a worm? and the son of man, which is a worm? (Job 25:2-6)
Bildad's response is partially correct, without the mercy and grace of our GOD, we cannot be saved or made righteous. He is Holy and just, and sinful man cannot exist with GOD, nor can we save ourselves. It is not in our power or by any means within ourselves to pay for our sin against GOD. But with GOD all things are possible, and He Himself provided for our Salvation. We are justified through repentance of our sin and our faith in Him and His finished and perfect work on the Cross of Calvary.
When we turn from our sin and acknowledge what it cost us and Him who is Holy, and receive His redemption by faith alone, we are born again and made righteous in His sight. We are redeemed, not to continue in sin or to sin all we want, but to live in Christ the life and liberty that man was meant to live. We don't invite Him into our life, but receive a brand new life and are made a new creature in Christ, to live in, through, and for Him who is our life.
GOD loves us and is not willing that any should perish. He offers redemption through His Son to all who will believe and receive it by faith in Him and trusting in His Word. Man apart from GOD is nothing but in Christ we can and do accomplish His will and do His work as we who are His are His workmanship, His servants, and His people.
GOD calls His servants to minister to those around us who are hurting and in need. As ambassadors of the King we are to take the Word of righteousness and reconciliation, rightly divided and fitly spoken to this lost and dying world that they may see Christ in us, the hope of Glory. GOD commands His children to love one another as He loved us. As the people of GOD we are to fellowship with one another and disciple one another in His Word for the perfecting of the saints, for the work of the ministry, for the edifying of the body of Christ. GOD has commissioned His people to take the Gospel of Jesus Christ, in the power of the Holy Spirit, to this broken and sinful world. As we go where He sends us, we proclaim the Good News of forgiveness through repentance and reconciliation with the Father through faith in His Son, that those who believe that Jesus is the Christ might have life in His Name.
For GOD is not willing that any should perish, but that all would come to repentance and the knowledge of the Truth. Jesus loves you and wants to establish a covenant relationship with you that is real and personal. Surrender to Him on His terms and He will give you a brand new life of discipleship and fellowship with Him that is abundant and everlasting. GOD calls you to trust Him and what He has already done for you to pay your sIn debt. He has provided the only way of reconciliation with GOD, forgiveness from GOD, and Salvation through Jesus Christ, the Son of GOD who is GOD the Son, to give you a new life in Christ. Turn away from yourself and your sIn and turn to Him alone for eternal Life, now and always.
In Christ,
