Sin is any wrong doing that separates you from God.
Not all sins are the same but they all lead to death.
Any rebellious choice any think vile anything you know is wrong that's sin.
Virtues are what lead us closer to God so basically anything good.
Sin is one of the hardest part of being in a relationship with Jesus.The devil keeps attacking you, Tempting you saying "It's not a big deal" and when you give in he acts as if it's the end of the world "Look! God's never gonna forgive you now"
But god won't let you be tempted beyond what you can handle and also don't Listen to Satan he's a loser the dude thought hecould beat God when he lost to an archangel. He probably still has marks on he's butt cheeks.
Anyways back to the point let me give you a hypothetical scenario.
Let's say you're a knight in medieval times and you want to be sexually immoral due to the pleasure it brings but you end up falling for it because you tried fighting it so you gave it attention making it stronger.
So whenever you're tempted do This one thing.
SUBMIT TO GOD AND LET HIM FIGHT YOUR BATTLES
There is something you also shouldn't do.
REPEATING INTENTIONALLY OR ELSE YOUR GOING BACK TO MATHEW SEVEN. Where Jesus says "Depart from me you worker of iniquity"
You should turn away from it run.Run faster than Usain bolt.
Anyways now let's talk about virtues.
Virtues are the most beautiful things humanity has discovered.
Now how do you commit virtues?
WORSHIPPING GOD'S VIRTUES.
GOD IS THE SOURCE OF ALL GOODNESS.
And don't worry worship Jesus, the father or The Holy spirit. Your basically just worshipping God.
If you worship god's patience you'll be patient.
Or You can just ask God to give you something like Hospitality.
So short answer if you want to be more virtuous.
WORSHIP GOD AND FOCUS ON HIM.
Next topic.
PUTTING GOD FIRST IS ONE OF THE BIGGEST PRIMARY NEEDS EVER.
So how do you put god first?
Simple!
Just put god first!
You wake up?
Thank God that you got the chance to breath.
Start your day with God.
Since you always on your phone download the Bible chat.
You can put a bible verse on your lock screen and home screen and limit your screen time on certain apps with it.
Now you believe in God but that's acknowledgement to the thrown.
But obey God cause that's kneeling to the throne.
Don't think just because you prayed a prayer like "Forgive me of my sins Father" and then continuing it or going "I surrender my life to you" Because if you're surrending your life to christ then your obeying Christ.
And then you go out And live in sin!
That's what we call LUKEWARM CHRISTIANS.
The term "lukewarm" is prominently addressed in the Book of Revelation. In Revelation 3:15-16, it is written: "I know your works, that you are neither cold nor hot. I could wish you were cold or hot. So then, because you are lukewarm, and neither cold nor hot, I will vomit you out of My mouth."
Luke warms more deceived than atheist.
Atleast they know they don't believe in God but a Lukewarm got a false assurance claiming Christ and living in sin.
If you see that you're LUKEWARM.
REPENT!
Don't be trying to impress these people if you going to be a child of god it doesn't matter who's in your way.
Once God got something for you it doesn't matter who stands against it.
God will give you more than you can handle that's why you need him.
That's why you should take this journey with God.
Read the word of God because that's your spiritual food also don't worry there's no such thing as righteous gluttony.
He's words got more protein than eggs yolks and meat combine.
He's words refresh your soul.
And they're sweeter than honey they nourish the soul.
Don't just be reading the Bible but applying it.
I use to wake up and read the bible and go about my day.
But then i learned I'm just making it a routine because I'll just read it and not apply the teachings of the bible.
Apply god's word in your life because trust me it's going to make a difference.
Next topic.
THE FRUIT OF THE SPIRITS.
Gentleness.
Goodness.
Faith.
Love.
Self control.
Patience.
Joy.
Peace.
Kindness.
Galatians 5:22-23
"But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control. Against such things there is no law."
Mind you it says FRUIT NOT FRUITS.
John 15:5 "Apart from me you can do nothing"
This is the Holy spirits fruit.
God's fruit.
Not your fruit.that why it's a singular noun.
These are also ways you can share the gospel.
Because sometimes you could be trying to talk about Jesus about your friends and they're just like "Ok cool have you seen the new playstation game FC 26?"
Trust me I've been there.
So you should make them see fruit because we Humans are simply we'll want to explore something and end up in it.
If you say the name of Jesus in a conversation some reactions are people getting irritated and some people wanting to engage but 80 percent of the time it's irritation.
That's because there's demons around.
Demon's hate Jesus let me tell you a story.
So Satan being the bum he is tried to take the throne of god and got kicked out of heaven which is why Jesus says "I saw Satan fall like lighting down to the earth"
Now he tried to defeat God with he's angels.he tried to be the source of god's Glory.
Deceiving one third of heavens angels.
Then when Jesus approached a demon possessed man demons already trembled and literally asked Jesus to be put inside the bodies of Pigs.
So next time you feel like a loser just know demon's are the reason failure feels good about itself.
Now back to topic.
Spreading fruit is important so here's how you can spread it.
Be gentle toanswer a person because it de escalates things.
Have self control.
You can't have every fruit but one fruit is will turn away wrath.
So spread the fruit of the spirit as a way to spread the gospel.
Stay bless and drink water and remember the devil is a loser while God does is win,win,win win.
