Selfdiscipline is the key!
We should {try to} not sin& we should {try to} fight our own temptations- with all our might.
And I mean - with all our might- trying hard to turn away from our wickedness & practicing {even if it means - forcing ourselves} to do righteousness.
It's now, that the future is in our hands to do as we please.
None of us know when we will die. People talk about the end of the world. Well, it always the end of one's life, when one dies.
GOD is giving us the chance to become righteous as HE is righteous.
But in order to do that, we need to turn away from our worldly desires.
And to gain 'Ever Lasting Life on earth ' or to ' go to Heaven,' we must listen to The Almighty GOD & Jesus Christ, and turn from all wicked ways - to the best that we can! To the best of our knowledge, that HE has given us!{Ezekiel 33:11}
Meaning, using all the might, with-in us, by using self-discipline, doing what we know is right & not wrong, no matter what!
And if we do fail, we will be foregiven because The Almighty GOD & Christ Jesus will have seen that we did the very best we could, Jesus' blood covers those who do try with all their might & 'endure to the end.' {Matthew 10:22 & 24:4 - 13}
And what does endure mean? It means to carry on through, despite hardships.
And at times it will seem that others may do better in turning from their wicked ways.
But by-all-means, do not let that bother you! Be happy for them & continue to pray for them. {1 Corinthians 12:26}
And realize too, as long as you are doing the very best that you can, The Almighty GOD & Christ Jesus will know that.
Remember, HE know's what in our heart. And HE will know if HE is in your heart.
Do not dwell on what others may do, for The Almighty GOD is watching them & HE is watching YOU, too.
We all will be judged according to our works.
Though the Bible does state that we should give warning to all people good & bad a like.
Don't worry if you have warned them & yet they do not listen, just pay attention to your own actions.
For The Almighty GOD is watching us all.
It is written - "We can be teachers", and one way is by setting good examples for other people to wittiness & follow. {1 Corinthians 12; Romans 12:6-8, 1 Timothy 4:12, Titus 2:7, 1 Peter 2:21 & 5:3}
Our examples will have messages with in them selves.
Hebrews 12:28
We have been given possession of an unshakeable kingdom. Let us therefore be grateful and use our gratitude to worship God in the way that pleases him, in reverence and fear.
Do you want to see wicked people in the New Earth or New Heveans to Come? {Isaiah 65:17}
To see them pollute the earth - all over again, and our minds & bodies as well?
No of coarse not!
This is why our Almighty GOD must destroy all wickedness! In-order to 'make all things new again.' {Isaiah 65:17, Revelation 21:5
The Almighty GOD & Jesus Christ wand us, HE even showed us & explained how good it would be for us, if we would listen & obeyed HIM. {Deuteronomy 5:29, Micah 6:8}
HE even gave & still gives us a chance to turn from our own wicked ways, and asked us to stay away from following the sins of others. {Ezekiel 18:30-31 & *33:11, 1 Timothy 2:4, 2 Peter 3:9,}
But still HE is marked by many! {Isaiah 52:13 - Isaiah 53:1 - 12}
It is not HIS fault that we choose to sin!
