“And the judgment is based on this fact: God’s light came into the world, but people loved the darkness more than the light, for their actions were evil. All who do evil hate the light and refuse to go near it for fear their sins will be exposed.”
We want what we want and think that anything else is taking our freedom. We need to realize the love God showed by sending His Son, the light, that actually makes our lives more free when we surrender and obey. All that is set up for us will benefit us and keep us living with joy as we pass through to get home. Our evil desire are everything that we crave, sexual impurity, greed, jealousy, hate, anger, and bitterness. When our thoughts are on satisfying ourselves we don’t understand the light and we fight it so we can ok our selfish desires.
John 3:36 NLT
“And anyone who believes in God’s Son has eternal life. Anyone who doesn’t obey the Son will never experience eternal life but remains under God’s angry judgment.””
Our obedience shows our belief, when we live the way we desire and forget the values and the morality God has shown us we stay far from Him and we press into the dark. God wants all of us to repent and turn to Him, He has given us everything so we can die to self and choose the Light, it is freeing. Amen
