  • Because my life is so self-centered that the money I would save by not smoking would only be wasted on something else equally selfish.
  • Because I am unable to admit that it is outrageously stupid to pay for something that is extremely bad for my health.

“What? know ye not that your body is the temple of the Holy Ghost which is in you, which ye have of God, and ye are not your own? For ye are bought with a price: therefore glorify God in your body, and in your spirit, which are God’s.”
[1Corinthians 6:19-20]

 


Why I Gamble:

  • Because my life is so shallow that I have nothing worthwhile to spend money on.

[1Corinthians 6:9-10]

 


Why I Fornicate:

  • Because my idea of commitment is “What’s in it for me?”.
  • Because I’m just a selfish “user” who doesn’t want to be accountable to another person.
  • Because I don’t really respect the other person – their values are just as corrupt as mine.
  • Because everyone else is doing it so that must somehow justify doing something that
    used to be looked upon as shameful years ago.
  • Because I want to set an example for my kids so that they will grow up to have an immoral relationship like I have and be equally proud of it.
  • Because I am getting ready for Hell so I can live like I want and do what I want.

“Know ye not that the unrighteous shall not inherit the kingdom of God? Be not deceived: neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate, nor abusers of themselves with mankind, Nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners, shall inherit the kingdom of God.”
[1Corinthians 6:9-10]

  • Because I am really no better morally than the degenerates who produce that filth.
  • Because I am preoccupied with self-gratification just like most people in the world I live in.
  • Because I am so morally bankrupt that I have no concern for the effects of porn on my mind, my body or on my marriage relationship.
  • Because everyone else is doing it so that must somehow justify doing something that used to be looked upon as shameful years ago.

“Ye have heard that it was said by them of old time, Thou shalt not commit adultery:But I say unto you, That whosoever looketh on a woman to lust after her hath committed adultery with her already in his heart.”
[Matthew 5:27-28]

 


Why I Lie:

  • Because I am selfish and lying gets me what I want.
  • Because I am insecure about myself and lying makes me feel smart thinking that I can fool people by making up stories.
  • Because I have no regard for trust in a relationship or for other people’s feelings.
  • Because I could care less about God’s commandment to not bear false witness against my neighbor – or others (Exodus 20:16).
  • Because I am ignorant of the Bible’s statement that all LIARS will have their part in the Lake of Fire (Revelation 21:8).
  • Because I am getting ready for Hell and that means I can say whatever I want.

“But the fearful, and unbelieving, and the abominable, and murderers, and whoremongers, and sorcerers, and idolaters, and all liars, shall have their part in the lake which burneth with fire and brimstone: which is the second death.”
[Revelation 21:8]

 


If you think that the words above are harsh or judgmental, then you have no idea how holy God is, and how mild those words are compared to many assessments of mankind by God in the Bible.

 

Here is just one instance of many, regarding God’s view of our sinfulness:

 
“Behold, the LORD’S hand is not shortened, that it cannot save; neither his ear heavy, that it cannot hear:  But your iniquities have separated between you and your God, and your sins have hid his face from you, that he will not hear. For your hands are defiled with blood, and your fingers with iniquity; your lips have spoken lies, your tongue hath muttered perverseness.  None calleth for justice, nor any pleadeth for truth: they trust in vanity, and speak lies; they conceive mischief, and bring forth iniquity.  They hatch cockatrice’ [vipers] eggs, and weave the spider’s web: he that eateth of their eggs dieth, and that which is crushed breaketh out into a viper.  Their webs shall not become garments, neither shall they cover themselves with their works: their works are works of iniquity, and the act of violence is in their hands.  Their feet run to evil, and they make haste to shed innocent blood: their thoughts are thoughts of iniquity; wasting and destruction are in their paths.  The way of peace they know not; and there is no judgment in their goings: they have made them crooked paths: whosoever goeth therein shall not know peace.  Therefore is judgment far from us, neither doth justice overtake us: we wait for light, but behold obscurity; for brightness, but we walk in darkness.  We grope for the wall like the blind, and we grope as if we had no eyes: we stumble at noonday as in the night; we are in desolate places as dead men.  We roar all like bears, and mourn sore like doves: we look for judgment, but there is none; for salvation, but it is far off from us.  For our transgressions are multiplied before thee, and our sins testify against us: for our transgressions are with us; and as for our iniquities, we know them.” [Isaiah 59:1-12]

Christ Died For The Ungodly

by Horatius Bonar

The divine testimony concerning man is, that he is a sinner. God bears witness against him, not for him; and testifies that "there is none righteous, no, not one"; that there is "none that doeth good"; none "that understandeth"; none that even seeks after God, and, still more, none that loves Him (Psa. 14:1-3; Rom. 3:10-12). God speaks of man kindly, but severely; as one yearning over a lost child, yet as one who will make no terms with sin, and will "by no means clear the guilty." <continued>
