For we must all stand before Christ to be judged. We will each receive whatever we deserve for the good or evil we have done in this earthly body. 2 Cor. 5:10
"Then she heard someone call her name. It was a strange voice. She turned and saw the person calling her in a shop, looked at her familiarly... Kehinde became defensive, she asked him how he know her name.... As if he read her thoughts, he said "Don;t mind my drinking alcohol; I am a pastor . I like you. .... My mind was at peace, I did not think of anything negative. He returned later and had changed what he was wearing before ... The pastor unmasked his true self. He looked at Kehinde straight in the eyes and asked her to remove all her clothes... "I then removed my skirt, followed by my camisole, my brassiere, then my tight shorts and my pant. " He said I should open my legs but I refused. The pastor said he would kill me if I don't shut up. and that he would just dump my corpse somewhere ... He was already o top of me. The he started sucking my breasts and he penetrated..." Sunday Punch March 2010 p. 9.
Ladies and gentlemen, whether the above quoted biblical statement be real or not whereas it is true, what does it cost us to do good? Why do human being prefer to do evil instead of good? We all know corruption of any form is bad and we all condemn it yet we all continue to say one thing and do another. We know stealing, sexual immorality, drunkenness, smoking are bad for our health and they waste our resources. Yet we actively engage in them! Why? Why must we be persuaded to do good? Why do we condemn corruption and when we commit one we justify our actions?
Let's be frank to ourselves. Let's do the will of God and life will be the better for us.
