Will He Say, No Charge?

Genesis 9:5

5And for your lifeblood I will surely demand an accounting from every animal. And from each man, too.  I will demand an accounting for the life of his fellow man.

God made a new covenant with Noah after He washed away everyone but whom He asked Noah to preserve. The covenant allowed meat to be added to the diet not vegetation. And it also consisted of each person giving an account of their life when each person dies. You know that everyone must die, but rarely do people realize that EVERYTHING you've ever done must be accounted for both good and bad. The good news, if you have accepted Jesus Christ as your Savior and decide to live in Him, then many of the wrongs you've committed have been atoned for already. Meaning those you've repented for. His lifeblood was drained in the 39 lashes He received from one of the guards and then on the cross when the guards drove nails into His hands and feet and then pierced Him in His side. His lifeblood was taken for yours and mine.  How so? You probably don't even remember the first sin you ever committed. But the day you made Jesus your Lord and Savior and decided to walk in Him, God decided to forget about the first sin you ever committed. The whole reason why God called Noah to build the Ark was because He was disgusted with what He saw in the land and all those who had no regard for Him. Noah was willing to listen to God and that's why his family was preserved. Jesus is the Lamb of God, unblemished. Yes, every man must die but those who truly accept Jesus as their Lamb of God are spared from an eternal death in the lake of fire. Jesus took the keys of death when He laid down His life in exchange for yours and mine. How is your life honoring the lashes He took for you? How is your life honoring the nails that were driven in for you? Your account must be given before Him. Will He say, no charge?
