“There is always a ‘right way,’ to do something that is The path of Jesus Christ of Nazareth,
or the 'wrong path' of the world that runs on mammon, lust, greed, and theft.
Love not the world, neither the things that are in the world. If any man love the world, the love of the Father is not in him.
And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God.
Ye adulterers and adulteresses, know ye not that the friendship of the world is enmity with God? whosoever therefore will be a friend of the world is the enemy of God.
Beware lest any man spoil you through philosophy and vain deceit, after the tradition of men, after the rudiments of the world, and not after Christ.
No man can serve two masters: for either he will hate the one, and love the other; or else he will hold to the one, and despise the other. Ye cannot serve God and mammon.
Marvel not, my brethren, if the world hate you.
For all that is in the world, the lust of the flesh, and the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life, is not of the Father, but is of the world.
I am come a light into the world, that whosoever believeth on me should not abide in darkness.
Let your conversation be without covetousness; and be content with such things as ye have: for he hath said, I will never leave thee, nor forsake thee.
And have no fellowship with the unfruitful works of darkness, but rather reprove them.
Enter ye in at the strait gate: for wide is the gate, and broad is the way, that leadeth to destruction, and many there be which go in thereat:
And the world passeth away, and the lust thereof: but he that doeth the will of God abideth for ever.
In whom the god of this world hath blinded the minds of them which believe not, lest the light of the glorious gospel of Christ, who is the image of God, should shine unto them.
~ G.S.Ministr
