A fountain cannot bring forth sweet and bitter water

A certain group of people I drive around have a certain thing they do which, to me, is sinful, and when I describe it, I think you'll agree. ### who {their words, not mine} are either here illegally, or were here on a temporary visa, but overstay. They came up with a "plan" around this, again, they admit this,--they pay {bribe} an American man to pose before the authorities that they're "married" - in other words, lie about it - now, first, isn't this sin, because 1, it's fraud, trying to deceive the authorities, second lying, and bribery involved, and try to get a second person to participate in their deception. Also, marriage is sacred before God, and for them to sponsor a sham marriage as a means to an end, then go separate ways, is using God's institution of marriage for their own purposes. Sin, on several levels? But here's the weirdest part - of those who do it, they all claimed to be Christians, and love the Lord!! One of them who suggested this to me sings praises to Jesus {loudly} in the car while listening to Christian videos on her cell phone!! {Then does this} I thought Christians would "know better" Shouldn't they rely on God instead of devious means?

Maybe these are the "Christians" who smoke weed and praise God? Then it is completely understandable, lol...### like to smoke weed as far as I know....especially if they are ###.....(long hair with braids)....it is a hypnotic trance (weed) where everything is good and allowed and life is beautiful and everybody is good....

Family in Christ, let's repent of what was said. We are not to judge, but we can speak the truth and say JESUS can help you, you can try to say encouraging words, like lying will only make things worse and ask them to ask JESUS to intervene, and again that is their own burden that they will carry. We can lead by example and guide people to what's right and wrong but we are not to condemn or point out people's sin, are we not full of flaws and sin ourselves? Is anyone of you perfect and lives sin-free? It is truly impossible but for JESUS ALONE WHO IS FLAWLESS AND SIN-FREE. Not by the sword but by the word, my brothers and sisters, do not allow the enemy to deceive you. You already just fell into sin by every word you confessed here. I pray that the love of the Father and the Holy Spirit may open the eyes of your inner man and that you may fully understand why God says LOVE ONE ANOTHER, DO NOT JUDGE, BUT PRAY FOR ONE ANOTHER. LET'S LEAD THE WAY JESUS LED.

### ###, you need to fast and pray for all lost ###, and everyone else in the world. They need Jesus. We are here on earth only for a moment then we shall fly away to be with the Lord. Fast and pray for your nextdoor neighbors who need the Lord.
