(KJV.) EPHESIANS 5:6
(6) Let no man deceive you with vain words: for because of these things cometh the wrath of God upon the children of disobedience.
THE PATHWAYS OF LIFE
Brethren, from the look of how things are going in this twenty-first century; the only way to know the truth, walk in the righteousness of Jesus Christ, is to make the necessary efforts to read the scriptures ourselves; why? when we read his words, his words are not just ordinary words but are lights that illuminate within our spirits, to discern the pathways of life.
Knowing the truth of his words eliminates the lies and deceptions of the enemy, we perceive what is rightful from the wrongful ways of life; without knowing the truth of his words, we will follow and copy others blindly, walk in ungodliness, lose salvation and eternal lives: today's text, Apostle Paul is saying to believers, to be wise enough to discern the truth of the words of God, that they should resist temptations to backslide into sinful natures, to walk in ungodliness, but rather think carefully about what people say, discern the truth from the lies of their words, before we advise ourselves on what reactions to take; it the choices that we make that matters in life.
At times, we listen to the vain words of men, don't relate what they say to the scriptures, later on, we find ourselves in disobedience to the words of Jesus Christ; if that happens to anyone among us, it never too late to correct ourselves, make a turn away from our mistakes, come to Jesus, he will surely receive you back into his arms of righteousness, give you free grace, the second, third, fourth chances to make things right with him: however, after we must have known the truth of his words, let us be in spirit, not to backslide into our old ways, there are unforeseen consequences that prevail against souls for the choices they make under the sun, whether good or bad choices.
CONCLUSION:
Dearly beloved, let us walk in love, as children of light, the light is the truth, the truth is the word, the word is Jesus Christ; therefore, let us read his words, know the truth, believe the truth, have the truth within; vain words of people, derail souls from his righteousness, salvation and eternal lives, when we find ourselves at the crossroads of life, pondering which pathway to take, the right thing to do is, to seek the face of Jesus Christ, read his words for enlightenments, pray fervently, praise, worship and thank him, receive divinely road maps to destiny, peace, joy, and everlasting life. Peace be unto you! Amen and Amen!
WORD OF WISDOM:
(KJV.) Proverbs 16:7 When a man's ways please the LORD, he maketh even his enemies to be at peace with him.
