Jeremiah 7:3

Thus says the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel, "Amend your ways and your deeds, and I will let you dwell in this place.

Bible Reading for A Year:[bible]00Job2:14-26[/bible];[bible]Jerem7:1-15[/bible];[bible]0Luke10:25-37[/bible]

When we read the Bible, it often says that Jesus always critics Pharisees and religious leaders who admit their selves as believers and those who obey to the rules; however their manners do not represent their sayings. Apparently, Jesus makes the Samarian and tax collectors whom underestimated by people as models just because of their good deeds.

Truly, we are only just human being who can not get away from sins. However, it does not mean that we must surrender to sins. We have a duty to preach the gospel to all people. So, is it ok when we are preaching the gospel and taking them to God meanwhile we, ourselves, do not do the same thing? Just take an example when someone is giving the sermon that we must prioritize His purposes over the world, but there is a condition when he is asked to donate his money to help flood’s victims, he refuses to give them some donations because he has many things that must be fulfilled.

Brethrens, preaching the gospel is big project that God gives to us. Therefore, we should make ourselves heartily to be proper first before preaching the gospel to all people by fixing our manners, so that what we say and convey to our brothers and sisters is not just vain words as what Pharisees and religious leaders do.  

Always remember that faith without deeds is definitely useless.
