For as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways, and my thoughts more than your thoughts.
And if ye say, The way of the Lord is not straight. Hear now, O house of Israel: Is my way not straight? Are not your ways crooked? When a righteous man leaves his righteousness, and commits iniquity, he shall die in it; for his iniquity that he has done he shall die. Again, when the wicked man leaves his wickedness that he has committed and lives according to judgment and righteousness, he shall cause his soul to live. read more.

Repent and turn yourselves from all your iniquities, so iniquity shall not be your ruin.
