Oh yah, you KNOW this is right! FEW will regard this truth, or respect it, yet, NOTHING is more accurate---
To embrace the world, and it's ways IS to exist separately from THE LORD *GOD*, despite that we ARE in this world, and have to deal with it! The TRUE Christian KNOWS this is NOT our home, and we are not here very long, so, every hour counts; be that to HONOUR *GOD*, or to be further chained to this realm! ALL which is wrong in this world IS derived from LACK OF *GOD*, lack of RIGHTEOUSNESS, and our submission to the falsehoods which lead us farther from our TRUTH, and from HIM! ALL which is wrong with us IS rooted in foolish belief in what the world has taught us, and has caused us to act like! It IS SO simple to be changed, and to change, but we listen to the passions, and stirrings within which ARE embedded because of the lies, and the enticements that this world generates! We place significance in the physical, while we deny, defy, and ignore the extraordinary spiritual being, which by the way, IS that which has been CREATED into HIS IMAGE, for HE IS SPIRIT, thus, are HIS Chosen!!!
WISDOM of the *GODLY* kind IS imperative in this trek through the valley of tribulations; without it, we are like sagebrush in the wind, being tossed around, tumbled, and thrashed by what opposes HIM, and oppresses us! The fear of *GOD* IS the beginning of WISDOM, BECAUSE HE ALONE, holds our destiny in HIS hands; that is, the final destination of our souls, which BELONG TO HIM WHOM CREATED them, along with everything in CREATION! We foolishly fear other people, and things, yet, many do not fear THE LORD *GOD*, and cling to what is carnal, or of the flesh, NOT acknowledging that the body is temporal, but the soul is forever, and can either spend eternity in PEACE, and JOY, or not! Many are those whom IGNORE the weightier instructions HE HAS put before us, as they CHOOSE to satisfy the flesh, and imagine that the soul is safe, especially if they have proclaimed CHRIST JESUS as their LORD, and SAVIOUR, YET, are void of TRUE repentance, or conformation unto HIS WILL! WISDOM teaches, guides, directs, protects, and provides for us in every way, for HE KNOWS what we are up against, and how easy it is to tire of aiming to exist aright, since we are on the outskirts of hell, and are met with much on the journey...
Numerous people THINK that this time on Earth IS all about them, but, it is NOT! NEVER has been! IT IS ALL ABOUT *GOD*, and HIS GLORY, and our ROLE IN HIS PLAN, or being chained to the world! It IS about SERVING *GOD*, and OTHERS! It IS about LOVE! It IS about what is right, just, and good! It IS about CHANGING flaws into advantages! It IS about ALLOWING *GOD* TO PERFECT us FOR HIS GLORY, and HOLY use! It IS about MAKING existence BETTER for ALL! It IS about DOING good, and BEING good, EVEN when it seems impossible, which it ISN'T IF we are OF *GOD*, because WITH *GOD* NOTHING is impossible! It IS about THE SPIRIT, and the soul; ours and those of others! It IS about FINDING THE LORD, and THE PATH, and REMAINING IN HIM, and ON THE PATH, NO MATTER WHAT intends to obstruct us! NO! It is NOT about you, NOT at all, save for the BLESSINGS you receive IF you are ONE WITH THE LORD *GOD*!!!
WHATEVER we decide to do, has consequences, right, or wrong, good, or bad! When our CHOICES are of this world, we are on our own, and endangered by the consequences therein! When our CHOICES are OF *GOD*, the consequences are BLESSINGS, and PROMISES FULFILLED! IF we CHOOSE to be of the world, we are slaves to what is of the world, and it's woeful evils! IF we CHOOSE to be OF *GOD*, we are slaves to RIGHTEOUSNESS, and it's DIVINE benevolence, SO YAH, CHOOSE WISELY, which you cannot do, if you DON'T, or WON'T seek *GOD*, nor HIS WISDOM!!!
This realm IS a testing ground for the purpose of absolute determination of whom is of THE KINGDOM! We CAN'T navigate, or manage this on our own, so there is NO MY WAY, as ONLY THE LORD'S WAY IS THE SAFE, and FRUITFUL WAY! Of course you can deny TRUTH, and CHOOSE your own way, but in the end, it will be a foolish choice! See, this is part of the problem with this world, we think in terms of NOW, and NOT later, and for the most part, look the other way concerning consequences, and long term effects! Again, WISDOM would rectify that!!!
There IS a potent enemy working AGAINST us here, which we also, attempt to overlook, but whom WILL bind us TO our choices, and mistakes, SO, if we DON'T or WON'T become ONE WITH THE LORD, we have only ourselves to blame! RIGHTEOUSNESS, and HOLINESS AGREE WITH us, and BLESS us in ways we can't quite fathom! All else makes us sick, takes from us, and leaves us wayward in sorrows, agonies, and distress! I WISH there was a perfect way to explain HOW CRUCIAL IT IS TO CONSIDER the TOTAL CONTRAST between what is *GODLY*, and what is not, and HOW one works FOR us, while the other destroys us, and the placing of our souls!!!
Our entire existence REQUIRES GROWTH, and MATURITY; without such we are simply, wasting time, and going NOWHERE FAST!!!
I PRAY that *GOD* touches the hearts of ALL, and that HIS Chosen people's DO their work IN HIS PLAN TO snatch souls from the fire, and inspire, THAT all is well with each of us! Alas, the wickedness of evil IS hard at work, and DOES influence far too many! Still, WITH *GOD*, KNOWLEDGE, LOVE, and INTENT, we COULD make a HUGE difference, NOW, and FOREVER!!!
