Circumcision of the Heart

 


    Judging other people reveals a hard heart.  It condemns our own sins.  It displays contempt toward kindness, patience, tolerance, and repentance.  A stubborn heart is an unrepentant heart that stores wrath and judgment.
    We all will have troubles in life.  We all have to deal with people we do not like.  We are still expected to do good as a Christian to receive glory, honor, and peace without favoritism.  This heart displays that the law is written on it.  It is revealed by the conscience.  
    All secrets will one day be revealed to be judged by Jesus, not man.  Ask yourself some questions about how you live your life.  Is it for your pleasure or for God's Kingdom.  His judgment embodies the truth of the laws.  
    The mosaic law alone will not save you, but it does design morals.  You need the law to live within you, so that the morals become alive.  The way of Jesus must be taught and honored.  To not do that, then His name is blasphemed.  Only our hearts have to be circumcised to be in obedience to God.  It is the badge of spiritual circumcision.
