Don't be the worlds puppet

One thing I think makes it easier for the devil is that people have this "copycat" way of thinking."the world" I think describes the worlds way of thinking, like worldly trends.Don't you notice something? A "trend" starts, and then before you know it, everyone is copying it, without even thinking, just, they see others do it, and they think it's "in", and follow.They may not have any personal high feelings for it,but follow aimlessly.Some "trends" we've seen are,lately everyone and their cousin believes in the occult,compared to the past when certain who do that now, didn't "back then."Women with holes in their jeans at the knees: black teenagers with their pants pulled down, showing their underwear; rings in ones nose;and even drinking coffee,it's become like a "ritual" that you must drink coffee in the mornings.And when someone greets you, the first words are,"Would you like a cup of coffee?"{Maybe I prefer something else. Why MUST it be coffee?}Also, yoga. Every time you hear about someone in a news article, when it tells what they're into, it comes out--they practice yoga, and do yoga meditations, etc.Now I always had a mind of my own, but besides even that, do some of these trends glorify God?Yoga was an ancient Hindu ritual, honoring pagan godS, plural, not the one true God. I've heard people say they started smoking because they wanted to be "part of their "clique". Is giving yourself cancer glorifying God?Tatoos got started in a pagan way.Now is this coincidence, that people "copy" the wrong things? I don't think so, because the devil has an easier time of it if he can mislead many at once,instead of one at a time. So while they mimic each other in ungodly "trends",now the devil has a bunch of people deep into the world instead of just one or two. See?A point?
 
Jesus never ever said we should be puppets of the world. Jesus clearly told each one of us. Go ye therefore unto all nations and preach the gospel. Baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit. How many lost souls that were saved by your preaching were baptized¡? How many churches did you build so lost souls of the world came and got saved? How many people did you feed so far. Jesus also said. I was hungry and you fed me. I was naked and you clothe me. I was sick and you came to visit with me. Are we doing these things today all to the glory of God the Father?
 
Satan will offer you the whole world but at the end of our life it will mean nothing. All material possesions, everything we have and will get from somewhere shall not enter heaven. The only thing that shall enter the glorius presence of God is this. The souls that we brought to the feet of Jesus and the eternal word written down in our hearts.
