Hold Fast

We live in a very sexualized world. Many popular videos from the video site "Youtube" involve sexual jokes and making light of things like pornography and committing fornication. As a Christian, and young man in particular this can be very tempting. It can be so easy to sin, it can just involve typing 10 lettters into your address bar. As well as the hundreds of other sins we fall into every day.

But, this life will not be long. 80 years compared to infinity = no comparison. You're going to die and go to live in eternity. So, stand fast and spread the gospel to those around you. The world is not our friend. I'm sorry to tell you this. But, their goal is to drag us to hell with them. No matter how you dice it, the world is not appreciative of the Word of God. If you want, you can naively say the world is good, but that's not how it works in the real world. If you want to live in fantasy land today then do so. But, God required of us to go out and disciple the nations, so go out and disciple them. It's very easy for people to not witness their faith to others. Why is this? Specifically for you.

Thought of the day: I find it interesting how easily people can compromise for things like money. There's an entire eternity to look forward to, then all of a sudden someone offers you 400k to star in some wicked film and you're more then happy to sell out for that. Or, a political office, or a raise for their job, or not losing their job and deciding to skip the worship of God instead of giving up the job to worship God. I know it's never clear cut black and white like that, but I see everything in black and white so that's how it is. o.0 ;-)
