Good and evil, what’s the difference? God has a specific way of doing things and he states in the bible that there is evil in the world and that there is no good that comes from this world except through him. God is the source of goodness and without God we couldn’t be good. Today we will go over how to know the difference between right and wrong and what should you do with the new information.

First, pray

            God continually tells us that a wise thing to do on a daily basis is to communicate with him. Praying is our connection with God. God listens to our prayers and fasting; he knows when we’ve been good and the good decisions that we make. So, with that being said, God also knows when we are confused. God can steer us in the right direction if we ever get lost. Pray to God to tell you what is the right path and you can confide in him that the right path will be open up to you and you will see the difference between right and wrong. I remember I talked to a pastor one time and he said something that changed the way that I see things. The pastor said that things change, people change, churches change, people fail and churches fail, bibles can change too. But what can’t change is our connection with God. This is why it’s important to have a relationship with God. God is the one who will show us which bible is the correct bible, he’ll show us which church to go to, tell us which friends we should hang out with, what job we should pick, etc. etc. God is the answer to all of our problems. So chase God above all else.

            I knew then that I had to pray immediately for I had not prayed in a long time. I wanted to get close to God. I started praying like I’ve never prayed before. I pray hard and I love it, I confide in it, I enjoy it, it’s fun to me. It’s not fun because I’m having a blast, it’s fun because I’m talking with someone who gets it. I’m talking with someone who understands everything that I’m going through and he knows exactly the right thing to do.

Go to church

            German, what church do I go to? Go to the church that God leads you to. There are good churches out there and there are bad churches out there, so pray to God to guide you towards a good church. I remember in German class (the class about the language not the person) we learned a little bit about World War 2. We learned that Hitler had tried to get the churches to side with him. Many churches went with what he said, but some churches refused claiming that it was ungodly and not Christian at all. Hitler persecuted these churches because of course anybody against Hitler would be pronounced dead. These are examples of good churches. They knew the difference between right and wrong and chose to do the right way. God was in control the entire time and you can be assured that God never forgot about anyone during those dark times.

            Church will minister to you. It will give you a direction to go to and resources and people to go to when you need more information as to the right path. Church will teach you new concepts and guide your spirit, feed your spirit, and let you grow spiritually. If you’re new to the church or Christian faith, Church will be your foundation as to Christianity and work in your body and mind to convert your mind into a wholesome mind that thinks nothing but good.

Read your bible

            There are many types of holy bibles, but the one that I use is the King James Version. I use it because I think through evidence and facts that the King James Version of the bible is the most accurate as to what the first century Christians and early Jews were saying. If you want to use another version of the bible, it’s alright, just consult with God first and do your research as to which bible is the correct bible. God will guide you to the right bible.

Warning

            There are loads of disputes between churches concerning almost every significant and insignificant matter in the bible. From Jesus’ birth to the laws regarding what is right and wrong. People interpret the bible in many ways, to gain fans and followers or maybe to get money. This is why we have to be well read in the bible and know the ins and outs of it, pray to God, and use our resources to tell us what is the right way. Do not be scared though because God is greater than any man in the world. So, go and find that church, that bible, those friends that are good for you. Become a Christian, Love God with all of your heart. God will reward you, trust me he will.
