Description[?]:
| ""But they that will be rich fall into temptation and a snare, and into many foolish and hurtful lusts, which drown men in destruction and perdition." Sometimes, you have to protect people from the sins they would carelessly run into. Jesus called on us to sacrifice all to serve our fellow man - to impoverish ourselves in his name. Only in this way, can we truly know His joy. Unfortunately, too many are governed by greed - ignoring every noble feeling, or Biblical wisdom that would tell them how selfish and self-destructive such pursuit of material possessions really is. Sometimes, you just need to help people be better." --- Malik-rabban of Ushalande Chairman of the Deltarian True Christian Party High Priest of the True Christian Ministry First Patron of the Council of Saints. |
