 +If you are unfaithful, I will scatter you among the peoples! That is what God told them.
 +Faithfulness is a core part of love and truth. Love wants to be without end, and it does
 +not want to be deceived. Love means: I am with you, completely. You can trust me, you
 +can rely on me. I will not let you down!
  
 +You can tell God, you do not want to live with him. This is clearly possible. You get
 +your years of life, as you know. It can be 40, 60, 80, even up to 100. That is it. After
 +that there will be a time of judgement. That is what the bible tells us - we might
 +think it is plausible or might think it is nonsense. The bible also proclaims Christ
 +Jesus as God's peace and salvation, his path through judgement into a purity of
 +faith and love and truth. In him, the purity which God is and demands is given to us. 
 +He creates a path we can go! 
  
 +You can tell God, you want to live with him. You can believe in Jesus - which means
 +that you step on the path described above. It is a path of personal discipleship. 
 +
 +But you cannot walk the path without walking the path. You cannot believe without
 +living with the consequences (as you cannot stay away from God without facing the
 +consequences). The path of faith means that purity comes into your life! You will 
 +start to change, and continue to change. And it will be a lot of joy to walk this
 +way, the path of Christ Jesus.
