“As long as I do not harm anyone else then my actions are not sinful.” “Isn't what I do in the privacy of my own home my own business?” These are things I hear people say all the time, but aren’t all of our actions seen by an omnipresent God to whom then must we give account? What do you think His standards look like compared to ours?

1 Thessalonians 5:22 Reject every kind of evil

Romans 12:9 Love must be sincere. Hate what is evil; cling to what is good.

Philippians 4:8 Finally, brothers and sisters, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable—if anything is excellent or praiseworthy—think about such things.

God calls each one of us to abstain from things which would cause us to sin, whether it be actual sinning, or just thinking sinful thoughts. Remember, the 10 commandments said that lusting after someone is the same as committing adultery, and hating someone is the same as murdering in God's eyes.

1 Corinthians 13:6 -8 Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres. Love never fails.

Staying strong in the faith and living a Christian life is easier said than done, but totally worth it. <3
