The godliness of good people rescues them; the ambition of treacherous people traps them.
Godliness is about being just and fair. In the same vein, it's the godliness of good people that yields positive results. The Gospel Herald once ran a story about a man who was arrested for selling marijuana to students. The accused easily beat the charges because he was able to prove that he was actually selling plain drinking tea to the students. His victory was short-lived, however, because he was later convicted for defrauding the students he sold the tea leaves to because they thought they were buying marijuana. In the same way that godliness yields good results, there’s no escaping from the traps of sinful treachery. Sins will always find you out and corner you down, so be careful with your ambitions, desires and personal agendas.
