What if I don’t want to practice righteousness? 1 John 2:28-31 28 And now, little children, abide in him, so that when he appears we may have confidence and not shrink from him in shame at his coming. 29 If you know that he is righteous, you may be sure that everyone who practices righteousness has been born of him. 1 See what kind of love the Father has given to us, that we should be called children of God; and so we are… What if I don’t want to practice righteousness?

John 8 – Woman Caught in Adultery Two Hypothetical Questions: Do I have to leave my life of sin? How do I leave my life of sin?

Billy Joel – Only The Good Die Young You get a nice white dress And a party on your confirmation You've got a brand new soul Mm and a cross of gold But Virginia they didn't give you Quite enough information You didn't count on me When you were counting on your rosary And they say there's a heaven for those who will wait Some say it's better but I say it ain't I'd rather laugh with the sinners Than cry with the saints The sinners are much more fun You know that only the good die young

1 John 3:4 4 Everyone who makes a practice of sinning also practices lawlessness; sin is lawlessness. 1 John 1:8 If we say we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us. 1 John 2:1b But if anyone does sin, we have an advocate with the Father, Jesus Christ the righteous.

1 John 3:5-6 5 You know that he appeared to take away sins, and in him there is no sin. 6 No one who abides in him keeps on sinning; no one who keeps on sinning has either seen him or known him.

1 John 3:7-8 7 Little children, let no one deceive you. Whoever practices righteousness is righteous, as he is righteous. 8 Whoever makes a practice of sinning is of the devil, for the devil has been sinning from the beginning. The reason the Son of God appeared was to destroy the works of the devil.

1 John 3:9-10 9 No one born of God makes a practice of sinning, for God’s seed abides in him, and he cannot keep on sinning because he has been born of God. 10 By this it is evident who are the children of God, and who are the children of the devil: whoever does not practice righteousness is not of God, nor is the one who does not love his brother.
