To Avoid Or To Resist? by Nobody: 9:07pm On Aug 21, 2021
It is better to avoid or to abstain rather than to resist.

Anyone that is leading you down the wrong path does not have your best interest. Say no. The world will only rob you of everything God has given you. It does not care about you; ask the prodigal son.

I presume that you refer to avoidance and resistance.

Thus, there are times avoidance is impossible, so that is when resistance kicks in.

Therefore, the 2 skills are necessary to acquire.

Sometimes, it can catch you unawares. You have to resist.


Avoidance is not totally human.

The context is the world. You can avoid the world. If it’s the devil, then it is impossible. You can only resist the devil.

The context is the world. The world cannot catch you unawares. It’s a choice. It’s only the devil that can catch you unawares.

You can't avoid the world because the world is not just referring to people, it is a system. The world is deeply inside many people by the way. The Bible says don't love the world, don't abuse the world. Just like you don't avoid or resist money. As much as possible, don't use the world, but if you have to use then don't abuse usage.
