(1Th 1:9) “For they themselves shew of us what manner of entering in we had unto you, and how ye turned to God from idols to serve the living and true God;” This living in separation from the norm, was something the lost and the saved could both recognize. This world has its idols still: the idols of pleasure; the idols of money; the idols of things; the idols of achievement. Yes, Christians enjoy things, earn money, accumulate things, and achieve – yet they guard their hearts and thus their actions for the glory of He Who saved them.
