STAY OFF TEMPTING STUFF

📜📜TEXT:1 PETER 2:11-25📜📜

📖 BIBLE TEXT: "Dearly beloved, I beseech you as strangers and pilgrims abstain from fleshly lust, which war against the soul" (1 PETER 2:11).

Heaven is where God dwells. It operates according to God's principles and values. As Christian, we have no permanent home on earth and our citizenship is not here. We are mere sojourners, and are passing on to our eternal home in heaven. As a sojourners in the world, we will not give ourselves up to sinful pleasure. Satan is waging a war against Christian and according to John Osteen. "The primary place of attack by Satan is in the mind and thought life".He brings dirty imaginations of in indulgence in alcohol beverages or trying out marijuana and other hard drug A detour to that realm could result in affliction with diseases of the mind and body. And no one finds it funny keeping frequency appointments with doctors or psychiatrist, especially a young person school or trying to start a successful career.

As Christian we should not indulge in anything that will ruin our souls. Even while engaging in our necessary of life activities such as studies, work, or domestic chores, our affections should be on heaven. Playing with tempting stuff is sin and damns soul.

💭 QUOTES: Playing with temping stuff is sin and damns souls
