WORKERS OF INIQUITY

'Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have I not prophesied in thy name? And in thy name have cast out devils? And in thy name done many wonderful works? And then I will profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity.-Mathew 7:22-23'

What is obvious from the above passage of the bible is that, some Christians will not make heaven. Although, today they go to church and attend every bible classes and religious seminars, they will still not be allowed into the kingdom for their refusal to love Jesus. Jesus said, 'if you love, obey my commands'. If you are a christian, it therefore means that you must live your life in accordance with the principles and values taught by Jesus. 

How can the world know that you are living in accordance with the principles and values Jesus or not? lets look at them below: Each individual could be described in two ways. Either as a worker of iniquity or worker of goodness. 

A worker of goodness:

1. Kindness: A worker of goodness is a kind person, always willing to share what he has with others


2. Loves God and his neighbors: will not be involved in an act capable of affecting others negatively.
3. Selfless: Put others ahead of himself
4. Act as servant to all: Will rather serve than to be served.
5. Work to ensure others enters the Kingdom of God

What defines workers of iniquities are as followers:

1. Selfish & greedy: They want everything for themselves. Even when its glaring that they have enough, they would want more to the detriment of others
2. Love for self & idols: They only love themselves, material things they own and people that help them achieve their aims.
3. Slavers: They would enslave their fellow men solely for their personal gain.
4. They are liars/killers/thieves: They would lie, thief and kill any body that gets in their way.
5. Worship of Idols: They worship whatever gives them pleasure . 


You are chosen, sent with gifts to bring about changes in the society and bring God’s children to the Kingdom of God. Some of these gifts include your offices on planet earth and must be used to ensure social justice for all. Iniquity could mean any of these words: Wickedness, Evil, Sin, vice, injustice and crime. These words all could also be summarized as great injustice. So, if you are a worker of iniquity, then you are actually someone who has done or that is doing great injustice to his neighbour or the society at large.

The world needs the people with goodness in them that would bring about divine ordained changes in their lives. Chose today to be one of those with goodness of heart!
