Satan tempts us to covet what isn't ours and it could be someone's else's car, clothing, house, spouse, money, career, food, talent, power or friends. He leads many to rebel against God's 10 commandment law, and steal, lie or commit adultery and even murder in order to get what they covet, what isn't rightfully theirs.
Romans 3:23 says, "All have sinned and come short of the glory of God" Romans 3: 22, 24-26 says, " The God-setting-things-right that we read about has become Jesus-setting-things-right for us. And not only for us, but for everyone who believes in him. For there is no difference between us and them in this. Since we've compiled this long and sorry record as sinners (both us and them) and proved that we are utterly incapable of living the glorious lives God wills for us, God did it for us. Out of sheer generosity he put us in right standing with himself. A pure gift. He got us out of the mess we're in and restored us to where he always wanted us to be. And he did it by means of Jesus Christ."
Like Simon's cat, we would all be in double trouble and more without Jesus!!!
God's best 2 U, Joy J
