"For we ourselves were also once foolish, disobedient, deceived, serving various lusts and pleasures, living in malice and envy, hateful and hating one another."
We are supposed to live humble lives and respect authority no matter what because... we used to be just like them. Everything we might wish to get mad at, gossip about, trash talk, be proud we are not them... anything you can think of isn't a good reason because we were once at that point too.
No one is perfect. God had to die for all of us. We are all equally guilty of sin.
This is a place where I am study God's Word for myself. I am a bit of a historian so also including some research into the culture of the times and people that I come across as I read the Bible will be here too. This is just a way for me to share what I learn with others as well as feel like I am being held accountable for keeping up with my devotions. I am lazy by nature and need that small check and balance.
