"For if we would judge ourselves, we would not be judged" - 1 Corinthians 11:31

 

God has given commandments and decree in the scriptures and strictly said what to do and what not to do. Let's imagine something like this. Suppose the Lord says, "If you love me, obey me: it will be a blessing to you. If not, do whatever you want. But there is no punishment." Then how will our thinking, vision, speech and actions be? Let's open our conscience for a minute and look at ourselves. What would I be like? Do you dare to do it knowing that it is a sin and there is no punishment? Or would I not have done it out of love for my Jesus Christ as he said?

 

Joseph was in the house of Potiphar, who was the head of the Pharaoh and the leader of the leaders in the land of Egypt as said in the Bible. There he was given all authority and everything was subject to Joseph. Except for Potiphar's wife! After a few days, Potiphar's wife saw that he was young and handsome and kept her eyes on him and invited him to have an abusive relationship when no one was at home. He walks away. One day Potiphar's wife grabbed Joseph garment and called him, but he left his garment and ran away.

 

How will we be if a sinful situation approaches us like this? If not, are we looking for sin? My beloved people! At that time when the commandments was not given, Joseph feared God and ran away from evil. Not only the Law, but the entire Scriptures, including the commandments and decrees of Jesus Christ, have been given to us. If we live according to this, pleasing to Him, we will enter into heaven. Otherwise it is written hell. Even if heaven and earth pass away, not one letter or one syllable will pass away from the word of the Lord. Knowing all this, how am I? Let's think!! Let's get readty!!

- A. Simeon
