{/The saturday evening movie.

Saturday's sermon or rather, movie, taught me many things.
It really left me a impression that i doubt i will forget.
Previously, God taught me this, What is the purpose of you doing it?
Doing what? Sins and anything else that's not for a good purpose.
Don't do it unless it's for the good.
And the movie has a part that somehow told me that.
That guy, Caleb, He did those nasty things to his own spouse and nearly got a divorce.
He watches pornography and got addicted to it and when his wife scolds him, he retaliates back verbally.
He wants respect yet don't give respect to his wife.
He quarrels and everything...
He did all these because he was prideful and not wanting to give in to his wife.
That was his purpose, to somehow out talk his wife.
But the Lord wants us to live life, with a purpose, but a positive one.
Like what? Being honest with whatever we do, forgive and forget(Matt 5:42), and follow the commandments.
In the bible, the commandments serves as like a warning for us, for a better life. Matt 5:19.
In the movie, the Father of Caleb told him that God is a very serious, strict God.
He says that the Lord treats lying alike to murder and lusting to Adultery.
And that is true... That was like a warning to me.
Sinning is something God dislikes alot and He won't bring us to the kingdom in heaven if our life is full of sins plus if we are christians.
So what is exactly the purpose of sinning?
God gave us choices in life. Choice to either say yes to it, or no.
And often we get succumb by sins because they are so alluring so tempting and we say YES to it.
but when we want to say no from it, we hesitate. Because we really want it.
And after doing those sins, tell yourself, what is your purpose doing it?
John 11:9-10
9Jesus answered, "Are there not twelve hours of daylight? A man who walks by day will not stumble, for he sees by this world's light. 10It is when he walks by night that he stumbles, for he has no light.
God bless.
