Are We Compromising with Moral Values?

Compromising with moral values canbedevastating…Please let’s not play with fire… 

Moral degradation is a commonphenomenonin today’s world. People have taken it for granted. 
Nobody feels alarmed by the moral decay……. 
Even India being a very conservative country has beeneasily accepting thingsthat were once upon a time called nasty, dirty, and badmorally. 
Personally, I am shocked to see today’s world. While discussing aboutgayrelationship, one of my colleagues said that even an insect understandsitssexual behaviour; a male insect always mates with a female. But humanbeings,the crown of creation, we cannot understand it. That is sad. Thereare also alarming statistics of extra marital & live-in relationships intoday’s world which are just outside of God’s frame or standard of marital& sexualrelationship.
Recently, I was reading a book and there are few statements that reallyattracted my attention because they were so true and valuable for everyone tounderstand. Here are some of them:
 “God sees abortion as murder. Satansees it as family planning.”

 “God sees cheating in business isa sin. Satan sees it as shrewd business practice.”

 “God calls drinking as a sin ofdrunkenness. Satan calls it alcoholism, as if it’s a disease.” 

“God calls gambling a sin. Satancalls itrecreation.”

 “Godcalls lust as a sin ofadultery. Satan says it’s a harmless natural desire.”

“God calls homosexuality anabominablesin. Satan calls it as an alternative lifestyle.” 

If we view things from God’sperspective,we can understand what is right and wrong, but once we startseeing things fromSatan’s point of view we compromise with everything. 

We just take things for granted. 
We misuse our free will.
Unfortunately that’s what happening in this world today. The world seeseverything fromSatan’s point of view instead of seeing things from God’s pointof view. 
Theworld is legalizing sin every now and then. Sin is no more seen as sin, butit has become a way of life. 

This trend of the world may take it tosevere devastation soon as God had warned about the consequences many timesthrough His word.

Today, I wanted all to rise up againstsin, but yes not against the sinner of course. I am not against anybodypersonally. But I am against the choices we make in our life. 
The choice is ours, whether it is wrong or right. And that’s why we areresponsible for our choices.  
Fiends! Never forget the natural way of living. Honour Godly values. Let’s notcompromise with moral values as it can lead to dangerous consequences. 
Just think for a moment seriously, we are planning only for 70-80 years of ourlife on this earth;
what about eternity? There is life after death. 
We are all eternal beings. What are we storing for our eternity?
