Overcoming Evil - part 2 ( and Doing the right thing)

Good morning all.  God is good all the time, all the time God is good.  TOO BLESSED TO BE STRESSED!!!
   Evil, we are surrounded by evil. Adult XXX stores, Playful (sex) toys, violence in life and movies, war group against group-nation against nation, and on and on.  Yes, we are surrounded by evil.  Again, the facebook, twitter, craigslist, pinterest - it can all be used for evil.  Just as I said yesterday a gun to hunt for food is good; a gun to hunt (kill) other humans is evil.
   The good news is that if you and I remain faithful to God we win in the end. 

Revelation 12:9 ESV /  And the great dragon was thrown down, that ancient serpent, who is called the devil and Satan, the deceiver of the whole world—he was thrown down to the earth, and his angels were thrown down with him. 

Satan and his followers are thrown down to the earth.  By whom you may ask? The one and only true GOD!  What must we do?  Here is some advice, wisdom, straight from the Book of Life's Instructions called the BIBLE:

3 John 1:11 ESV / Beloved, do not imitate evil but imitate good. Whoever does good is from God; whoever does evil has not seen God.

1 Peter 3:11 ESV / Let him turn away from evil and do good; let him seek peace and pursue it. 

1 Peter 2:1 ESV / So put away all malice and all deceit and hypocrisy and envy and all slander.

•  WOW!  Don't imitate evil - but imitate GOOD!

  • Good is from GOD

    Turn away from evil

    Seek peace and pursue it

    Put away all malice and all deceit

    Put away all hypocrisy and envy

    Put away all slander

    Ephesians 5:1,2 "Imitate God, therefore, in everything you do, because you are his dear children.  Live a life filled withe LOVE, following the EXAMPLE OF CHRIST.  He love us and offered himself as a sacrifice for us, a PLEASING AROMA TO GOD!

     Now, go do the right thing.  If you wronged someone go to them; if you lied correct it; if you slandered apologize; if you lusted, envyed, coveted, or whatever ask God for forgiveness and then forgive yourself.  Start today a FRESH NEW DAY IN JESUS.

    Where does this verse come from?  "Wherefore he saith, Awake thou that sleepest, and arise from the dead, and Christ shall give thee light."  Book, chapter and verse.  Let me know.  Love you all!!!

    In Christ's Love and Grace
