Five Religious Beliefs That Makes You Unbelievably Wicked by broswilli: 2:48pm On May 16, 2016
1 Undeserved Favour:
This religious belief makes many persons to become wicked in the most unexpected ways.
Wickedness: You may start engaging in sharp practices to forcibly cause the undeserved favour. You may actually become lazy in your chosen field, not wanting to improve yourself because you have undeserved favour. You may feel that it doesn't matter whether you're the best or not you are still in line for the top position.

If a more qualified person is chosen for the position and you may be expected to co-operate with the person you may refuse to work with the person, you may choose to start slandering the person. If the person doesn't share the same religious beliefs as yourself you may start slandering the persons belief. It may become worse if the person is a member of a religious group that is not popular in your working environment.

The truth: Your work should also reflect as part of your worship to God(Anything your hands finds to do do it well Ecclesiastes 9:10). Your work should reflect the spirit of excellence. You should be the unmistakable choice by your bosses. When you are appointed for a task people should not think that there were better options it is just that you were favoured. They should know that you are the best option and it was not given to you because you know how to lobby. You were given based on your character and expertise.

What you should do: Pray to God for an excellent spirit. With an excellent spirit there would be no need for unnecessary lobbying and backbiting. You should look for ways to do your job better and faster. Also try to be nice to everyone you meet, avoid describing people as low level.

2 I belong to the Only Religious Organization Accepted By God:
You may feel that your religious organization is the only religion God accepts and approve of. You may feel that your religious organization is the only group doing the will of God. While this may be true because a disciplined father may have only one set of standard accepted by him this feeling may drive you to wickedness

Wickedness: This feeling and thought may make you become arrogant and you may start segregating people and religious groups. You may start developing superiority complex and start looking at people from other religious backgrounds as not fit to live.

The Truth: The almighty father wants all his children to live and wants everyone to come to repentance. He is not too far from anyone and if we sincerely seek him we would find him. So many persons from various religious background are seeking for the true God and deep within their heart they are frustrated with religion.

What You Should Do: Instead of feeling superior you should have genuine pity for those outside your faith. Seek for ways to preach to them and look at them with love. In doing so you will not condemn them and they also will start accepting you. No human listens to someone that condemns them. That does not mean that you should accept the wrong things they do.

Study them and seek the best ways to approach and preach to them to join your faith. Doing so frees you from the stress of fighting against your religious enemies because enemies are now seen as potential friends
