Morality Check Series

"23 Search me, O God, and know my heart: try me, and know my thoughts: 24 And see if there be any wicked way in me, and lead me in the way everlasting." (Psalm 139:23- 24 King James Version)

I believe we all need to have some soul searching and physical, spiritual and moral check ups before the New Year starts. Let's start with morality check up:

You need a morality check if the life of a dog, a cat or any animal is more important to you than the life of a fetus, an embryo or a baby inside a mother's womb or your womb. You need a morality check if you put more importance to the life of the animals and the trees than to your fellow human beings. (Exodus chapter one)

You need a morality check if you don't agree with bed undefiled, and actually doing the opposite without any feeling of your conscience being soared with hot iron. (Hebrews 13:4)

You need a morality check if common sins such as lying, stealing and taking advantage of others are just fine with you. Just to let you know- it's actually the common sins of the end times. (Hosea 4:2; II Thessalonians 2:9; Revelation 3:9; 22:15)

You need a morality check if you can get home drunk and miss your time with your family, with God, His Word and prayer, And the sad thing to happen the next day is either missing church or work. Yes, I know I did not mention the expenses for the drinks, the consequences of Driving Under the Influence (DUI) and how wine, liquor and strong drinks will affect your body's system. And if you're not bothered about it; you need a check up. I may intentionally skip quoting Bible references for this to make it sound more practical than spiritual but in case you need some... (Proverbs 20:1; 21:17; 23:30- 31; 31:4- 6 Ephesians 5:18) - By Ely Roque Sagansay
