Theme : " Do not conform to the present century "
Text : Ephesians 4: 17-21
17. So this is what I say and what I say in the Lord, that you must no longer walk like the Gentiles, who walk according to the vanity of their thoughts. 18. Their minds are darkened; they are strangers to the life of God, because of the ignorance which is in them, because of the hardness of their heart. 19. Having lost all feeling, they surrendered to dissolution, to commit all kinds of impurity together with greed. 20. But you, this is not how you learned about Christ, 21. If at least you heard him, and if, according to the truth which is in Jesus, it is in him that you were taught. to strip you,
Let us remember:
Walking according to the pleasures of this dangerous century will deprive Christians of eternal life. This century kills the eyes of our faith; it blinds our spirituality. This century obscures the intelligence of its fanatics; it makes Christians strangers before God. This is why, on the day of judgment, God will say to those who follow this century: “I never knew you”. Although a Christian, one becomes a stranger in front of God if this century envelops you. The Lord God commands us to no longer walk like the Gentiles, who walk according to the vanity of their thoughts. This century makes people ignorant; he hardens the hearts of those who like to live at his own pace. This is why we see people without fear of God; having lost all feeling, they gave themselves up to dissolution, to commit all kinds of impurity combined with greed. He who bears the name of Jesus Christ must not conform to this century, on the contrary he must shed carnal attractions. Excellent Friday and good entry into the weekend. Amen Alain Louz.-
