The Foolishness of Sins
November 3rd, 2017
2 Timothy 3:1-9
We are warned about the great danger of disregarding God’s holy Word in our journey with Christ. Having the right attitude toward God and holy living is paramount for our limited days, which are in the hands of God. Arrogance, pride, and disobedience are the background to godlessness in this broken and messed-up world.
The foolish choices of sinful lives are tantamount to practicing the danger of empty religion described in 2 Timothy 3:4-5. Listening to the news media any day is often like getting a dose of reality about the sorry conditions that exist in our broken world. The apostle Paul gives Timothy, and all serious followers of Christ, an “eye popping” dose of reality about what sinful practices and godless religion will look like in the closing season leading to the return of Jesus Christ. The Scriptures admonishe us to “run” from the foolishness of sinful lives and from empty and dead religion.
Practicing the foolishness of sin pulls anyone into friendship with the world and separation from God. This is a definite “No” in the Scriptures. Our Lord is jealous that our friendship with Him should be paramount and consistent in our lives.
