Ephesians 1:4

As he hath chosen us in him, before the foundation of the world, that we should be holy, and without blame before him in love:

 

Chosen before creation to be holy;

So why do we chose to be unholy

Chosen to live blameless before Him: in love

 

So why do we chose to live outside His love by living lives filled with wont, greed, self, and despair, desiring the things and ways of this world instead of desiring and walking after His love, Joy and Peace, living a life filled with His longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, growing in faith, treating others with meekness, living a truly self-restraint in action, and word; self-control.

Living life under the wing of Jesus this can be accomplished if you are willing to sacrifice self and grasp hold of Christ.

 

What does it profit a man to gain the whole world and loose his sole?
