The normal reaction to temptation is: can I get away with it, not Father, deliver me from evil.
The problem with “doing you own thing” is that it is often “a wrong thing.”
Sinners are willing to harm their own selves and the others around them in order to continue in their favored sin.
Today people are ready to accept “moderate sin,” as just being in the  minority…and after a while it becomes the majority.
Sin divides while it multiplies.
People learn to love their own ignorance, because it allows them “to do their own things.”
With God, there is no negotiated peace, only absolute surrender.
Live like you are the pastor, and die like you are a saint.
Men have so much knowledge and so little sense.
He who boasts in himself looses the most. He who boasts in God gains the most.
