We should thoughtfully consider how our choices will impact our relationship with God and eternity.

1 peter 4:1-5
Since Christ suffered and underwent pain, you must have the
same attitude he did; you must be ready to suffer, too. For
remember, when your body suffers, sin loses its power, and
you wont be spending the rest of your life chasing after
evil desires, but will be anxious to DO the WILL OF
GOD. You have had enough in the past of the evil things the
godless enjoysex sin, lust, getting drunk, wild parties,
drinking bouts, and the worship of idols (dirt), and other
terrible sins. Of course, your former friends will be very
surprised when you dont eagerly join them any more in the
wicked things they DO, and they will laugh at you in
contempt and scorn
Hebrew 11:25
By faith Moses, when he was born, was hidden for three
months by his parents, because they saw that the child
was beautiful, and they were not afraid of the kings
edict.
24
By faith Moses, when he was grown up, refused to
be called the son of Pharaohs daughter,
25
choosing
rather to be mistreated with the people of God than to
enjoy the fleeting pleasures of sin.
26
He considered the
reproach of Christ greater wealth than the treasures of
Egypt, for he was looking to the reward.
27
By faith he left
Egypt, not being afraid of the anger of the king, for he
endured as seeing him who is invisible.
28
By faith he kept
the Passover and sprinkled the blood, so that the
Destroyer of the firstborn might not touch them.
Conclusion:
Think twice about the incredible power of choice.
