It’s your Call – Why is the Secret not Revealed?

June 25, 2016

Abraham the failed leader discovered a Spiritual Secret that Revolutionized his life.

Many religious people are completely oblivious to this Secret even though it is plainly revealed in the Scriptures, and as such get caught up in Legalism by following rigorous Ascetic Rules and formulas.

This newly discovered Secret by Abraham, empowered him to overcome the serious challenges he faced in his life because of his numerous failures.

Religious people like to paint a picture of Abraham as a perfect Saint, which he wasn’t, and it comes as a shock to them when they realize that he had many flaws, and was just as much in need of Grace as any of us are.

For those who think that the main purpose of their religion is to follow a set of very strict rules about indulgence avoidance, the Secret becomes seemingly difficult to understand and commonly misunderstood.

Why haven’t more Believers discovered this Secret?

No amount of Religious Point Scoring can redeem you from Bad Karma, or earn your passage on the Stairway to Heaven.

Those chasing virtue through a “holier than thou” attitude completely miss the point about what Abraham discovered spiritually.

This Secret is completely revealed in Paul’s Letter to the Romans, but you cannot see it if you think that Paul is talking about Rule keeping.

To understand the Spiritual Secret requires a New Way of looking at things.

It is not a matter of how well you have been following the Rule book.

In Romans Ch 4 V 1 MSG,

“So how do we fit what we know of Abraham, our first father in the Faith,

into this NEW WAY OF LOOKING AT THINGS ?”

Why is Paul talking to the early Church in Rome about Abraham, who made every ‘mistake in the book’ ?

Is Paul referring to Abraham in his Letter to the Roman Believers as a good example of somebody who followed the Rule Book to the finest detail, without failure or mistakes?

Did Paul say ,

“I want you to look at goody-two-shoes Abraham, because he never said a lie, and lived a perfect life without making any mistakes that all of you Sinners do. Abraham followed the Rule Book with extreme diligence and because of this he is our example for all you naughty people to follow.”?

Obviously not, yet this is the way that some religious sects interpret it.

In fact, Abraham lied about his wife Sarah, and betrayed her.

Paul shows us clearly what was revealed to Abraham in Romans Ch4V1 AMP,

“What then shall we say that Abraham, our forefather humanly speaking, has found?

Has he obtained a favored standing?”

What did Abraham discover?

V2 “For if Abraham was justified , that is acquitted from the guilt of his Sins, By Works, those things he did that were good, he has something to boast about, but not before God.”

V3 ” For what does the Scripture say,? Abraham believed in, trusted and relied on God, and it was Credited to his Account as Righteousness, as right living, as Right Standing with God.”
