ESV Under God, we have become a new creation and deceitfulness are left for the old self.

```html Jesus doesn't ask much of us. Still, He has given us an opportunity, however uncomfortable, to do something for Him. But, in rebellion, even knowing that He, himself, was thrown out of the temple, we complain about masks, social distancing, and not being able to gather in the opulence and comfort of our churches. Some even, in thinking they're exhibiting great faith, dishonor Him by defying the instructions given through His servant; thereby denying His request to acknowledge the sacrifice He made, on our behalves, by simply meeting Him outside the gates. Such a small thing. When I consider how uncomfortable it must've been for Jesus - humiliated, dragged outside the gates, beaten, and nailed to a cross, where He died burdened...

Divine Love will take you there! Galatians 6:8-9 8. For he who sows to his own flesh will from the flesh reap corruption. But he who sows to the Spirit will from the Spirit reap eternal life. 9. Let us not be weary in doing good, for we will reap in due season, if we don't give up. - World English Bible Comment Those who live their lives in corruption [self-serving] will reap destruction, while those who live their lives engaged in righteousness [divine selfless Love] will reap Life everlasting.
