Filthy Rags

God refers to us as filthy rags in comparison with his holiness. He is not talking about our souls, but about our flesh. It is a stench in his nostrils. Our flesh is sown in corruption and sin, and it will be that way until Jesus comes and our bodies are transfigured into a glorified state.

God’s purity and righteousness is the very catalyst that is necessary in making our salvation secure to purify and prepare our hearts for his kingdom to come. Praise God for being of such perfection and flawless in spirit, where no contamination

can enter and alter his promise or Word set in a foundation of blessed assurance.

Jesus shed his blood to fulfill prophesy and keep God’s promise of submission for our sin debt to be paid. God told the prophets of the bible of the coming event for hundreds of years prior, and then fulfilled it solely for our benefit. He has never promised us something that he can not deliver. He is not a liar. If he says there is eternal life… there is eternal life. End of story.

Our flesh is filled with the sin nature inherited from the genes of Adam. Our hope and faith is in the love of God, and it is only by His grace and mercy that are we sanctified and purified for the return of Jesus. It is during our life time that God presses our disobedience and hard heartedness out of us through tribulation and persecution, in order to prepare the bride for the bridegroom. This is not done out of wickedness, but unconditional love because God cares and has a responsibility for our souls and wants the very best for our lives. His calling is for every sinner to return unto Him and be under the authority of Christ to fulfill the promise of salvation. Our filthy rags must be washed in the blood of Jesus to become snow white in holiness and be proudly displayed on God’s clothesline of purity in heaven.

But we are all as an unclean thing,
and all our righteousnesses are as FILTHY RAGS;
and we all do fade as a leaf;
and our iniquities, like the wind,
have taken us away.- Isaiah 64:6
