Patronizing Sin.

"We're both Christians and our relationship is not hidden in the church", she stated. 
"What happened to those vigil-turned-emotion outbreak, are they prayer points too?" Don't patronize sin!
.
Cheating is wrong as Christians but I don't mind sitting near someone who does. I cannot fornicate or commit adultery but I can let out my room to someone who wants to do so... patronizing sin.
.
I notice that these days it's now common to see Christians loitering around sin. One thing I love about Joseph in the Bible is that, he did not stay with Potiphar’s wife to say stories like 'madam let's start small small', 'let's arrange for somewhere outside the house', all in the name of I'm only saying it to 'scope' her and I'll be free from her. He fled and even left his garment, he didn't smell what he's not willing to eat.
.
Loitering or patronizing sin can bring troubles like it did to Dinah. It can bring curse like it did to Dinah's brothers (Gen. 34). It can lead to defilement, more sins and even death too.
.
If you don't want a brother, my dear sisters, please let go of him and don't keep collecting his gifts and brother let go and stop wasting her time if you don't have serious commitment with her.
.
Love for Christ is not merely a feeling or affection but a commitment to follow Him all the way. ‘If any man would come after me, let him deny himself and take up his cross daily and follow me’
.
Do not loiter in Satan's corridor and expect to have Jesus' pat on your shoulders. You can't continue in sin and expect grace to abound. Remember, the devil will not spare any idle Christian that patronizes sin. Be committed to what you profess and flee every appearance of evil!
