Beloved, it is because of all these, that is, the unique attribute of both God the Father in heaven and Jesus Christ our Lord and the associated earthly and eternal blessings placed at the disposal of Bible believing believers like you, that you are exhorted to attain and sustain biblical righteousness in your life as a lifestyle for a lifetime.

They believe they can live any kind of lifestyle, because Jesus Christ is our righteousness and that is the only thing, God is looking for.

Mat 7:21 — Mat 7:23 Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven.

I am persuaded of you that you have these two requisite righteousness. But then should you discover that you are not, reach out to Christ at Calvary immediately to obtain it.

1Jo 2:1 — 1Jo 2:6 My little children, these things write I unto you, that ye sin not. And if any man sin, we have an advocate with the Father, Jesus Christ the righteous: And he is the propitiation for our sins: and not for ours only, but also for the sins of the whole world. And hereby we do know that we know him, if we keep his commandments. He that saith, I know him, and keepeth not his commandments, is a liar, and the truth is not in him. But whoso keepeth his word, in him verily is the love of God perfected: hereby know we that we are in him. He that saith he abideth in him ought himself also so to walk, even as he walked.

May the good Lord help you in particular to be wise unto salvation in Jesus name.
