Watch Yourself, Oh Man of God
As much as you strive to be the light God has called you to be, be careful when handling the weak and fallen ones in the faith that come to you.
God Cannot Be Tempted by Evil
God lives in us by His Spirit (see 1 John 4:4). So even though temptations come to us, the God in us isn’t responsible for it.
Beware of Deceiving People
[15] “Woe to him who gives drink to his neighbors, pouring it from the wineskin till they are drunk, so that he can gaze on their naked bodies! [16] You will be filled with shame instead of glory. Now it is your turn! Drink and let your nakedness be exposed! […]
Suicide Is Never the Solution to Remorse
Suicide is never the solution to remorse. Talk to the brethren about your issues. Don’t keep your struggle to yourself and suffer for nothing.
The Biblical Solution to Narcissism
When you start to find your identity in what you’ve achieved instead of what God thinks about you, you begin becoming narcissistic. Recognise grace in all your accomplishments, not your human works.
Keep Yourself Pure
As servants of God, we’re ambassadors for Christ wherever we go. Therefore, if people want to see Christ, we’re the ones they should come to. And that requires us to live a highly disciplined life in sync with God’s standards.
God Doesn’t Tempt Anyone with Evil
Evil is associative with darkness, and in God, there’s no darkness because He dwells in unapproachable light (1 Timothy 6:16). So where from the evil attributes the devil had made people believe about Him?
The Bait of Temptation

Will You Deny Worldly Pleasures for the Cause of God’s Mission?
“Will you deny worldly pleasures for the cause of God’s mission?” I know that sometimes, obeying God is hard. But hey, look into God’s glorious future for you and obey Him wholeheartedly.
Create Your Boundaries, Servant of God
One time, a man came to Jesus and told him to divide an inheritance with his brother. Jesus could have done it. But he said, “Man, who appointed me a judge or an arbiter between you?” (Luke 12:14).
