  • Pursuing the things of God, requires turning away from certain things of the world. Whether they are either sinful habits or just distractions, they will both keep you from your focus. No man can serve two masters: for either he will hate the one, and love the other; or else he will hold to the one, and despise the other. Ye cannot serve God and mammon, Matthew 6:24.
