CHRISTIANS SHOULD ABSTAIN FROM EVERY FORM OF EVIL


TEXT: 1THESS. 5:22

BY: BRO. WILLIAM OVEDHE

DEFINITION

CHRISTIANS: Are redeemed people who do not belong to themselves but Christ Jesus.
ABSTAIN: to not do something, especially, something enjoyable, because you think it is bad for your health or morally wrong.
EVIL:  Something that is very bad and harmful.

INTRODUCTION:  

Christian should remember of the price they are bought by Christ through the blood He shed on the cross of Calvary to redeem them into his kingdom. (Rom. 6:22)
Every Christian should remember the usefulness of his former life in sin, in order to appreciate his present life in the grace of God. (2 Pet. 2:20-22).
We should try to maintain the grace by not turning to the life of sin from which we have escaped, and not to blasphemed the name of Jesus by our conduct. To disregard  lust of the flesh. And embrace love and grace that was poured out on the cross through the sacrificial offering of the incarnate son of God. (Rom.8:18).
What we will receive in more  than what we can buy with either good works or suffering.
(Rom.8: 28-30) The finality of all things, therefore will end in good for the Christians when they are called out of this world into eternal glory.  Because the church, God before the creation of the world, predestined to be glorified.

CONCLUSION

(Rom. 8:31) ‘’ if God is for us who can be against us?’’ when God understands all that God did through His grace , the answer to the question is obvious, No one or anything can stand against God to bring his sons into eternal glory
