Only One Truth can Change You!

Only One Truth can Change You!

In the story of the prodigal son, the critical elder brother related to his father based on his performance, as did the Prodigal Son.  One believed he deserved his inheritance and the other knew he was undeserving of ever being a son again.

While one son boasted he had kept and obeyed his father’s laws and commandments, the other son confessed his sins and failures.

You aren’t accepted by God based on how holy and good you have been or rejected by God based on how sinful you have been.  It isn’t your performance, positive or negative, that earns you anything from God.  it is all about the Father loving you as you are.  The incredible thing about God’s love is it never leaves you in the same condition it found you.
