So, don't be guilty of obstructing justice - God's justice that is. Remember, when you know an ugly secret, knowledge equals responsibility. http://hutchcraft.com/a-word-with-you/your-hindrances/no-such-thing-as-getting-away-with-it-6086 2010-05-10T17:03:57-05:00 There's really no such thing as "secret sin." If God knows, it's no secret. If God knows, you're caught. And you can be sure God knows, and He loves you too much to let you ultimately get away with rebellion against Him, with things that eat away your soul that slowly destroy you. And the best time to turn around is right now, because the bill is getting higher every day. http://hutchcraft.com/a-word-with-you/your-most-important-relationship/the-inescapable-camera-2844 2009-09-11T16:07:29-05:00 If God's all-knowing picture of your sin is there when you die, there is no way He can let you into His heaven. But that picture can be destroyed today - if you reach out to Jesus trust Him to be your Savior. To think that Jesus absorbed all the guilt and all the hell of all those sins when He died on the cross - that is overwhelming love. He waits right now to pour out that love on you. http://biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Romans%202:16&version=NIV 2009-09-09T15:46:08-05:00 The Bible is very clear that we cannot keep secrets from God. In the end all of our secrets will be judged by God and all of our darkness will be exposed to the light. http://hutchcraft.com/a-word-with-you/your-most-important-relationship/waiting-for-tomorrow-s-gift-5726 2009-09-09T14:39:58-05:00 When you finally see what God is putting together behind closed doors for you, you're going to be forever grateful. You're going to love it. But for now, you may hear the hammering, but you won't be able to see what He's working on. Will you, as David said, "Wait patiently on the Lord"? http://biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Proverbs%2011:13&version=NIV 2009-07-16T09:41:16-05:00 The Bible is quite clear that gossip and rumor-spreading are negative and ungodly acts. This proverb states it simply, and contrasts the gossiper with a godly person who faithfully keeps secrets that are entrusted to him. http://hutchcraft.com/A-Life-That-Matters/Radio-Program/No-Secrets-On-The-Internet-8084 2008-09-05T13:26:20-05:00 Thinking about the things we think we’ve gotten away with, secrets we don’t want anyone to know about, things we hope no one ever finds out, but God’s cameras and recorders, they’re always running and you cannot undo this. Getting away with something is a myth. It’s only a matter of time. http://hutchcraft.com/A-Word-With-You/Your-Hard-Times/The-Secret-that-Keeps-You-from-Singing-4856 2008-08-18T11:49:10-05:00 It's amazing the torment that can come from a dark secret. Maybe you know that firsthand. It can, in a sense, keep you from singing, from experiencing all the joy and all the freedom you were created to have. It's even more amazing the release that can come from dealing with the dark secret. http://hutchcraft.com/A-Word-With-You/Your-Hindrances/No-Such-Thing-as-Getting-Away-With-it-5231 2008-07-31T15:21:13-05:00 We've done some things that go against how God has told us to live, and it seems like we're getting away with it. We haven't been caught. But make no mistake about it: you are heading for a serious day of reckoning. Judgment delayed is not judgment cancelled. And the longer you "get away with it," the worse the consequences are going to be.
