Because you can be sincerely mistaken

I read a track one day while walking down a link road heading home when someone I think a woman handed me a life track titled Sincerity is not enough. 

In this track a story was told about a patient in a New York hospital being prepared for a minor surgery. The trained anesthetist was administering a controlled mixture of oxygen and anesthetic gas when the tank of oxygen emptied, and a new tank was substituted. 

Almost immediately, according to the police report, the patient died. The attending surgeon and hospital officials suspected some kind of accident and called the coroner. 

An autopsy revealed carbon dioxide poisoning. Upon examination, the replacement "oxygen" tank was found to contain carbon dioxide! The tank had been mislabeled before it reached the hospital.

How could such a tragic mistake happen? The manufacturer was sincere, the hospital was sincere, the anesthetist was sincere, the surgeon was sincere, the patient, certainly was sincere. No one wanted the tragedy to happen. But all were sincerely mistaken about the "oxygen."

After reading such a track by then I was already born again but I don't reject tracks or anything related to being born again because it acts as a continuous reminder of the journey I have embacked on so after reading this wonderful track I renewed off-course my life to God afresh. There are many who feel sincere, live sincere, work sincere, even talk sincere but also sincerely neglecting the Son of God in their life's. We have even entered into a debate concerning those who died being very sincere with life but never ever accepted Jesus as their personal savior where they may likely end in heaven or in hell. The point still remains that Jesus is the way the truth and the life am not trying to judge the sincerely died souls but if there is any other way to heaven perhaps they certainly will be accepted. Enough of talking about the died to avoid divergence of your conscience, now its is you have you been sincere with life maybe even pray life the Pharisees who prayed saying Lord I thank you because am not like this public can..... Have you been a sincere religious Christian following the philosophy of men. Am here to reveal to you that you are sincere wrong because sincerity is not enough.

You know, I have been around mega churches and around religious folks I found out that those children who where groomed in church, grew in church, worked in church either in the choir or in any given post in the church are likely to fall into this category of sincerely mistaken folks. Yes, many of which were born into church not into Christ and if you make a very good survey you find out that actually they were never born again. They just flow with the activism of Christian living and mindset of looking sincere. 

That said, so am I against sincerity? not at all, then what are my trying to express. The simplicity of accepting Christ as our Lord and personal savior then live our sincere life to his glory. You know that feeling of seeing a certain person afar and in your mind your are like wow I want to be like that guy then God willing you finally made your way to him or her and discovered that actually not all that glitters are gold. That is exactly how a sincere man is without Christ. And you know the devil is really cleaver in building a very great wall of philosophy in their subconscious mind that they are in perfect condition and their life's pleases God. I pled with you my friend to break out this moment from that dourngoen of sincere life without Christ.

Lord, I ask that you reveal the state of the souls of my readers. Make them come out of their shell of being alone and know you on a personal ground while living everyday of their life with the witness of your Holy Spirit that they are now sincerely right. in Jesus name I pray. Amen. 

Thank you my friends for coming this far.
