Come out of the world. This world is not our home. We must not act like the rest of the world. We are children of God. We are called to be holy and live blameless so that we do not ruin our testimonies. We must be different from the world in all that we do, the way we act and react, the way we handle our affairs, and the way we raise our children. How will they know that we are His if we act just like the rest of the world?
Our life here is only temporary. As children of God we are to remember that Jesus suffered a brutal death for us so that we could be in right standing with God. This is not to be taken lightly. We are to honor our God and act accordingly. We are called to be the light and salt of this world. We can not be that if we are consumed by worldly friends and activities. What harmony can there be between Christ and the devil. I urge you not to unequally yolk yourselves with those who do not love the Lord or those who claim to love the Lord but who have made a practice of sinning. You do not need that type of influence. (2 Corinthians 6:14-18, 1 Corinthians 5:11)
Jesus can return at any day so we must be about our Father’s business. You must let your light shine in the darkness. We must live in this world and remain true to God and not soiled and dirtied by our contacts with the world. (James 1:27) We can not continue to ignore God and get away with it. A man will always reap just the kind of crop he sows. If he sows to please his own wrong desires, he will be planting seeds of evil and he will surely reap a harvest of spiritual decay and death; but if he plants the good things of the Spirit; he will reap the everlasting life which the Holy Spirit gives him. (Galatians 6:7-9)
So let us conduct ourselves as children of light. You have had enough in the past of the evil things the godless enjoy-sex, sin, lust, getting drunk, wild parties, drinking bouts and other terrible sins. (1 Peter 4:3) Ask the Lord to help you live as you should and don’t continue to harden your heart and make plans to sin lest the Lord give you over to your sinful desires. (Romans 13:11-13) Put on the armor of right living as we who live in the daylight should and let us be a holy living sacrifice the kind that God can accept. (Romans 12:1-2)
