A.P.G.

When God sees a man loving the priorities and practices of a godless world while purporting to love Him, He sees an adulterouse affair and trampling of the love He has given to the relatiohnships. It's a temptation that's tough to resist. Our world constantly invites us to go with our feelings over our faith:

• "Get the feeling," encourages Toyota
• "Absolute power," trumpets Gillette
• "Your moans of pleasure may wake the neighbors," predicts Wendy's
• "No rules, just right," proclaims Outback Steakhouse
• "It lets me be me," understates one perfume ad.
• "I want to get away," exclaims Nissan
• "Some choices are no-brainers," says Honda
• "Never sounded so good," counters Sprint
• "Master the moment," states MasterCard
• "No boundries," suggests Ford

All these distractions all around us, no wonder it is so hard to be a Godly man. But, we can't blame the world for us falling. We need to use all our strength to stand, (for what we believe in), and then keep standing,(for Christ).
