Weighed and Found Wanting

Preachers Corner https://www.preacherscorner.org.uk

The Bible says that we have all sinned and fallen short of God’s glory. This sin-barrier is too much for us to take on ourselves. In fact, there is no way we can remove it on our own that is why God sent someone to REMOVE it completely, a Saviour; Jesus Christ. God sent His OWN Son Jesus, to die in your place on Calvary’s cross that you might be saved.

Bible Scriptures: Darby Translation 

Leviticus 19:35-36Ye shall do no unrighteousness in judgment, in measure of length, in weight, and in measure of capacity: just balances, just weights, a just ephah, and a just hin shall ye have: I am Jehovah your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt.”

Proverbs 20:9-10Who can say, I have made my heart clean, I am pure from my sin? Divers weights, divers measures, even both of them are abomination to Jehovah.”

Psalms 62:9Men of low degree are only vanity; men of high degree, a lie: laid in the balance, they go up together [lighter] than vanity.”

Daniel 5:22-28And thou, Belshazzar, his son, hast not humbled thy heart, although thou knewest all this; but hast lifted up thyself against the Lord of the heavens; and they have brought the vessels of his house before thee, and thou and thy nobles, thy wives and thy concubines, have drunk wine in them; and thou hast praised the gods of silver and gold, of brass, iron, wood, and stone, which see not, nor hear, nor know; and the God in whose hand thy breath is, and whose are all thy ways, hast thou not glorified: then from before him was sent the part of the hand, and this writing hath been written.  And this is the writing that is written: MENE, MENE, TEKEL, UPHARSIN. This is the interpretation of the thing: MENE, God hath numbered thy kingdom, and finished it; TEKEL, Thou art weighed in the balances, and art found wanting;  PERES, Thy kingdom is divided, and given to the Medes and Persians.” 

Daniel 5:30-31In that night was Belshazzar the king of the Chaldeans slain. And Darius the Mede received the kingdom, [being] about sixty-two years old.”

2 Corinthians 5:17So if any one [be] in Christ, [there is] a new creation; the old things have passed away; behold all things have become new:”

2 Corinthians 5:20-21 “Be reconciled to God.Him who knew not sin he has made sin for us, that *we* might become God’s righteousness in him.”
