How many people lose families, lives, good opportunities because they are allowed to be influenced by bad things, often masked as good? Or why can not they say no?
"Therefore, do not subject them, for there is nothing concealed, that is not revealed, nor hidden, that is not to be known." Matthew 10:26
This also goes into the question of what is done when no one is looking. When you have to do something hidden to anyone, you can automatically conclude that the way you are following will not have a good ending. Because everything that is done by someone's back one day comes to the surface.
Is it worth it to lose everything you are building because of illusions that only want to destroy you?
If you have seen pornography, are married and have talked with other people hidden from your partner, for example, stop and think for a few minutes, he or she deserves this kind of behavior on your part? What would you do if it were the opposite, if she or he was looking at that kind of thing while you wait in the living room?
If you are at work and the manager invites you to do something that you disagree, promising a promotion, will it be worth it to charge in that way?
Or, if you have stopped drinking and smoking some time ago, but that new group of friends offers you a cigarette or a drink and you accept to try to feel included. Is anyone really caring about you? Could it be that these new friends can not have fun without the need to drink and smoke?
Therefore, be smart. Do not fall into the traps of society, which masks destruction with beautiful landscapes so that, when you get close, it will destroy your life and who is with you.
Faith must be rational, and everything is a matter of choice. Knowing how to say no and thinking about the consequences has been the exception in a world in which people are manipulated to live in suffering.
Choose to be on the side of values, principles. Choose if you love and respect those who love you. Do not be fooled There is no other way.
