WILL MAN BE ACCOUNTABLE FOR HIS ACTIONS ON THE LAST DAY, AND WHY?

WILL MAN BE ACCOUNTABLE FOR HIS ACTIONS ON THE LAST DAY, AND WHY?
                      GENESIS 3:16-17

" To the woman he said,
I will make  your pains in childbearing very severe with painful Labour ,you will give birth to children ,your desire will be to rule your husband he will rule over you.
To the man he said,
Because you have listen to your wife and ate fruit from the tree  about which I commands you must not eat,.cursed is the ground because of you, throuvh painful toil you will eat food of it all the days of your life."
The last time someone accused you of wrongdoing, what was your reaction? I assumed to be  denial, argument  and defense, but on that day the entire world will be silent before God , No excuses or argument.

Christians that k ow they are going to be Accountable for all they have been given ,they think carefully 
They are aware of what had been given to them.
These points tends to make them committed and focused as Christians. The responsibility is he who makes choices according to his/her flesh or conscience. 2 Corinthians 5 :10

" for all of us must appear before Christ,to be ludged by him.Each one will recievewhat he deserves. According f to what he has done,good or bad , in his bodily life"

                        DISCUSSION

A,   WHY DID GOD GIVE MAN FREEDOM ,MORE THAN ANY OF HIS CREATIONS?

1,  Genesis 9:6 ::- Because mankind was made in the image of God.
Here God explains why murder is so wrong:-
    To kill a person is to kill one in the                image of God.
    All human beings are made in the               image  of God .
All people have different characteristics that differentiates them from animals e.g
1,  morality
2,  Reasoning
3,  Self-worth etc.
When we interact with others , we interact with people that are made in the image of God. With people that God offers eternal life .
Being made in the image of God gives us more freedom that other other animals ,lets recognize his image in people.

2,   psalms 8:3- 9::- Because God is mindful of man
With all the gigantic planets ,stars ,satellites ,mountains , that God created , yet man was special to him, that he is mindful of him.when we look at the vast expanse of creation,we wonder how God could concern himself with people that constantly disappoint him.
God gave human beings tremendous authority to be in charge of the whole earth.

3,   Genesis 1:26-17::- God said let us  make man ,in our image and likeness and he created them male and female.
For the extend of worth ,God places on all people ,because he already declared how valuable we are to him , we can be set free from feeling of worthlessness.

B,    WOULD IT NOT BE INJUSTICE FOR MAN TO GIVE AN ACCOUNT OF HIS ACTIONS?
1,   Mathew 12 :37::- By our words we will be acquitted or condemned.
" for it is by you're our words ,you will be acquitted and by your word you will be condemned.
It will be an injustice for man to give av kung of every idle words spoken by him."
The bible is our standard,and so we are exhorted that we should be mindful of the words we speak cause good ones will acquit us and bad ones will condemned.
Let us be mindful of the words that comes word of our mouth as Christians.

2,   Romans 14:12-13 ::- Everyone will give account of himself.
It will not be an injustice e, injustice ,because we'be  been warned already in the Book of Romans 14:12. Each person accountable to Christ, not to other .while the church must be uncompromising in its stands against  activities that are expressively forbidden by the scripture like :
Adultery
Homosexuality
Murder
Theft
The church should  not create additional rules and regulations and give them equal standing With gods law.when we stand before  Gods seat of just I e (judgment seat) we won't be worried about what our neighbours or pastors had set  for us , but we will account for what had been given to us.

3,   Matthew 5:48- says ::- " Be perfect therefore, as our heavenly father is perfect"
            How can we be perfect?
1,  in character::- in this life , we cannot be flawless but we can strive to be like Christ as much as possible.
2,   Holiness::- like the pharasees , we are to separate ourselves from the worlds values that are sinful,but unlike the Pharisees , we are to devote ourselves to What god desire rather than ourselves.
Those who 
.strive to be perfect, will one day be perfect, even as christ is perfect.

C,   WHY WOULDNT GOD ACCEPTS SOME REASONABLE EXCUSES ON THAT DAY?

We should think about some excuses you assumes God should consider.
   It is the excuse of being a Human being?
   It is the excuse of ignorance ?
What excuse will we be thinking of giving before the throne of God on that day?

1, Genesis 3:12-13::- " the man said , the woman you put here with me ,she gave me the fruit from the tree and I ate it, the the lord said to the woman , what is this you have done? The woman said the serpent Decieved me and I ate"
When God asked Adam about sin he committed, he blamed eve then eve blamed the serpent.
How easy ,it is to excuse our sins by blaming someone else or circumstances, but God knows the truth and holds each of us responsible for what we do.
We are to admit our wrong doings and actions and apologize for our sins not to make excuses, because it will not help us on that day.

2,   Judges 6:15::- Excuses will not be taken on that day.
We saw in the scripture , How video was just giving excuses to God .let's see it ::-
" pardon me, my lord, Gideon replied, but how can I save Israel? My con is the weakest in Manasseh and I am the least in my family." 
Like Gideon we are called to serve in specific way, though God promised to be with us ,but we keep bringing excuses about our limitations.
For further studies on this topic check ::-
Exodus 32:22-24

                        CONCLUSION

At the judgment day,the book of life will be opened ,
This book contains the names of those who put their trust in God as their Saviour.
There are other books also that contains the record of deeds , good and evil .

                VERSE OF THE TOPIC
                 JEREMIAH 17:10
" But I  the lord search all the hearts and examines secret motives .I give all people their due rewards according to the actions deserves.
