Pick a Side No One Can Serve 2 Masters
Pick a side no more sitting on the fence either in our out, hot or cold, yes or no–there is no in-between. If you are not of God then you are against Him.

Titus 2:11-12 (NIV) 11 For the grace of God has appeared that offers salvation to all people. 12 It teaches us to say “No” to ungodliness and worldly passions, and to live self-controlled, upright and godly lives in this present age,
Apostle Paul was one of the most important leaders of early Christians and he did understand that he was not the leader of the churches he founded, Jesus Christ was. Paul also understood that he would not be around forever, so in Titus, he instructs one of his protégé [probably a young man] on how to select church leaders. However I love these two verses from Paul, and they still hold true to this day. We do need to say NO to ungodliness this very day. You have read where I said we can not live with one foot with God and one foot in the world. As far back as Joshua 24:15 (NIV) But if serving the Lord seems undesirable to you, then choose for yourselves this day whom you will serve, whether the gods your ancestors served beyond the Euphrates or the gods of the Amorites, in whose land you are living. But as for me and my household, we will serve the Lord.” The people are asked to choose who they are going to serve. It is time to pick a side
In Matthew 6:24 (NIV) “No one can serve two masters. Either you will hate the one and love the other, or you will be devoted to the one and despise the other. You cannot serve both God and money. No one is fooling God or a real Christian for we are told we can see how someone is walking by the way they act. In Matthew 12:33 “Make a tree good and its fruit will be good or make a tree bad and its fruit will be bad, for a tree is recognized by its fruit.
Then in Matthew 7:20 (NIV) Thus, by their fruit you will recognize them. So we can be seen who we are by their fruit.
