Joshua 24:16

The people replied, “We will certainly not abandon the Lord to worship other gods!

“As for me, I vow that I will not sin against the Lord by ceasing to pray for you. I will teach you the good and right way.

Absolutely not! Otherwise, how will God judge the world?

Absolutely not! How can we who died to sin still live in it?

But My righteous one will live by faith;
and if he draws back,
I have no pleasure in him.
