Purity

One day Ewurabena Bediako spoke about how a lot of us live in 'untested innocence'. Like you're still a virgin just because you haven't had the opportunity to lose it yet. Or you're not in jail because you've not seen an amount of money worth stealing yet.

In fact, etwii me paa. I really felt I was such a one. Not necessarily in those areas, but I know my struggles.

You see we're not allowed to play around sin like the world does. It's like when we were kids, and if you had parents like mine, we were not allowed to play barefoot in the streets anyhow like the other area-kids. Of course we did manage to play kpetengɛ, sulia for beatings, alikoto and all that... somehow, but my point is the parents who knew better gave their kids restrictions to show them that they were different. That's the same thing God does.

We have to stay away from sin, and true we seem outnumbered, because everyone is doing drugs but us; everyone is fornicating but us; everyone is corrupt but us, right? Wrong! In the words of Elisha:
They that be with us are more than they that be with them. (2 Kings 6:16)
Where's our team?
Hebrews 12: 1  Wherefore seeing we also are compassed about with so great a cloud of witnesses, let us lay aside every weight, and the sin which doth so easily beset us, and let us run with patience the race that is set before us...
There are apostles, prophets, angels, the Father, Son and Spirit cheering you on.

We can't fail Heaven. We'll be pure even when no one's looking. We can make it.
