“Love not the world, neither the things that are in the world. If any man love the world, the love of the Father is not in him. For all that is in the world, the lust of the flesh, and the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life, is not of the Father, but is of the world. And the world passeth away, and the lust thereof: but he that doeth the will of God abideth for ever.”
1 John 2:15-17 KJV
If the soul loves the world, they have been, are conformed to it: No matter they call upon the name of the Almighty Yah; no matter they pray without ceasing; no matter they quote the holy scriptures, no matter they go to the church building every Sabbath, or no matter they that go every first day of the week—Sunday: The soul was not, is not transformed by the renewing of their mind. These do not have the love of God in them no matter their profession, or lip-service. They did not give-up their very existence, everything to God. God has no other choice but to allow each and every soul their choice, and He will not override their choice, nor the consequences. Although, because of His mercy, the consequences may not be as severe as they could’ve been.
Repent. Be reconciled to God. Once the soul is reconciled to God, the soul can be reconciled in their marriage, in their relationships with their children, and others. Where sin abounds, grace much more abounds. The soul has to by faith choose to live strict obedience to God loving God, perfectly hate sin. It is truly the Holy Spirit dwelling in the soul that we can do God’s will—His word.
“For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who hold the truth in unrighteousness; because that which may be known of God is manifest in them; for God hath shewed it unto them.
For the invisible things of him from the creation of the world are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even his eternal power and Godhead; so that they are without excuse: because that, when they knew God, they glorified him not as God, neither were thankful; but became vain in their imaginations, and their foolish heart was darkened. Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools, And changed the glory of the uncorruptible God into an image made like to corruptible man, and to birds, and fourfooted beasts, and creeping things.
Wherefore God also gave them up to uncleanness through the lusts of their own hearts, to dishonour their own bodies between themselves: who changed the truth of God into a lie, and worshipped and served the creature more than the Creator, who is blessed for ever. Amen.
For this cause God gave them up unto vile affections: for even their women did change the natural use into that which is against nature: and likewise also the men, leaving the natural use of the woman, burned in their lust one toward another; men with men working that which is unseemly, and receiving in themselves that recompence of their error which was meet.
And even as they did not like to retain God in their knowledge, God gave them over to a reprobate mind, to do those things which are not convenient; being filled with all unrighteousness, fornication, wickedness, covetousness, maliciousness; full of envy, murder, debate, deceit, malignity; whisperers, backbiters, haters of God, despiteful, proud, boasters, inventors of evil things, disobedient to parents, without understanding, covenantbreakers, without natural affection, implacable, unmerciful:
Who knowing the judgment of God, that they which commit such things are worthy of death, not only do the same, but have pleasure in them that do them.”
Romans 1:18-32 KJV
“Therefore I will judge you, O house of Israel, every one according to his ways, saith the Lord GOD. Repent, and turn yourselves from all your transgressions; so iniquity shall not be your ruin. Cast away from you all your transgressions, whereby ye have transgressed; and make you a new heart and a new spirit: for why will ye die, O house of Israel? For I have no pleasure in the death of him that dieth, saith the Lord GOD: wherefore turn yourselves, and live ye.”
Ezekiel 18:30-32 KJV
“But the day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night; in the which the heavens shall pass away with a great noise, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat, the earth also and the works that are therein shall be burned up. Seeing then that all these things shall be dissolved, what manner of persons ought ye to be in all holy conversation and godliness, looking for and hasting unto the coming of the day of God, wherein the heavens being on fire shall be dissolved, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat? Nevertheless we, according to his promise, look for new heavens and a new earth, wherein dwelleth righteousness. Wherefore, beloved, seeing that ye look for such things, be diligent that ye may be found of him in peace, without spot, and blameless. Ye therefore, beloved, seeing ye know these things before, beware lest ye also, being led away with the error of the wicked, fall from your own stedfastness. But grow in grace, and in the knowledge of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ. To him be glory both now and for ever. Amen.”
2 Peter 3:10-14, 17-18 KJV
“For I say unto you, That except your righteousness shall exceed the righteousness of the scribes and Pharisees, ye shall in no case enter into the kingdom of heaven.”
Matthew 5:20 KJV
The character is what we retain and take with us into Heaven—only our bodies are changed. We are now either forming characters being called by the name of the Lord—having His character; or we are being conformed to loving Satan by loving the world and the ways, things of the world—these are called by the name of Satan having His character. The reward of these is eternal death.
No one disobeying God, not loving God, not having His salvation, not having His love in them, not being filled with His Spirit, not having His love, not loving His law of love and liberty (freedom); not being filled with His righteousness will enter into Heaven. These will not have right to the tree of life. These have forfeited, given up eternal life for eternal death. These are destroyed by the works of their own hands. Their choices in their daily living proved their master and father to be Satan having his character. God being just, righteous allows their choice.
Be not deceived.
