Evidently this was a problem thousands of years ago!
Proverbs 17:23 (New King James Version)
23 A wicked man accepts a bribe behind the back,
To pervert the ways of justice.
Guess what it is still a problem today! I know the majority of us reading this had our government pop into mind. Isn't that a sad state we have gotten into??? Not only our government but our judicial system is also corrupt in many areas. God is a God of justice. When it comes to right and wrong with God He does not wavier and nothing will bribe Him. He expects us to do the same. Greed has ruined this country. I want to bring this to a personal level. Ask yourself is there anything that I could be offered that would compromise my faith. It is easy to say "No way..nothing". Many of folks have said that but guess what they fell into Satin's trap! So what could do it? Money, car, fame, sex, big fancy home, and the list could go on and on! I pray all of us will recognize this morning that this is just a temporary stoping point for us, the next stop is eternity! Make wise decisions, decisions God would be happy with us for making!
