Hello Brother,
"The Bible Test For Worldliness" reminded me of something I heard recently:
When you are choosing how you spend the spare time that God has let you have, or choosing what to spend the money that God has let you earn, can you honestly give thanks and praise to God for that activity or that thing?
Very good, Bro. Everingham, accountability to God and others is is working out our salvation and letting our light shine before men.
God Bless,
