As we navigate the complexities of life, it's essential to remember that Jesus Christ is the Just Judge, who determines our eternal fate. His judgment is not based on personal opinions or biases, but on the will of the Father.
According to St. John's Gospel (5:26), Jesus says, 'The Father has appointed me supreme judge... and my judging is just because my aim is not to do my own will but to do the will of the one who sent me.'
Unfortunately, some people try to justify their evil behavior by claiming they have no choice or that they must live according to their nature. However, as Saint Paul warns in First Corinthians (6:9), 'Do you not realise that people who do evil will never inherit the kingdom of God?'
It's crucial to beware of those who talk about a 'right' to choose their lifestyle, implying that they have the freedom to commit evil deeds. In God's eyes, there is no such thing as a 'right to abortion' or any other form of evil behavior.
As Saint Paul advises in Colossians (4:5), 'Act wisely with outsiders, making the best of the present time. Always talk pleasantly and with a flavor of wit, and be sensitive to the kind of answer each one requires.'
As we approach a time when Christians may no longer be able to express their beliefs openly, it's essential to act prudently and remember that Jesus Christ is the Just Judge, who has the final say in everything.
