Whatever you sow is what you reap. Most of us in and outside church find pleasure in the ungodly deeds that we engage ourselves in, forgetting the repercussions of our actions, which comes as the sorrows of sin.

Eternal separation from God. Hell fire... forever. In the flip side, a believer may ask, why am I facing this backlash because I chose to stand? Why did I loose my Job because I refused to sin? Well, all these and more is scripturally explained, precept upon precept, line upon line. Be blessed as you listen and obey.
