Avoiding Evil

Well, the computer has been down, and I do mean down, low down. But we're back!

The passage in 1Corinthians 6:9-11 is not very comfortable, but worthy of our reading anyway. It says, "Do you not know that the unrighteous will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived. Neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor homosexuals, nor sodomites, nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners will inherit the kingdom of God. And such were some of you. But you were washed, but you were sanctified, but you were justified in the name of the Lord Jesus and by the Spirit of our God."

God expects His people to be different from other people in the world. And this difference must not be hidden, but must be a light to the world, as we read in Matthew 5. We all know that the world needs lights right now. It always has, but it certainly is needed now. Let's let our lights shine and be the exceptional people that God wants us to be!

Thanks for reading! See you next week.
