Scripture compares us to offspring of the sorcerer and prostitute. We sinners are no different than Israel was. We sinners are spiritual infant's, adulterers, wolves, witches, murderers, and drunkards. And we fell asleep. We need to wake up now.
I’m listening. When you say wake up, what do you envision?

I can't say how my friend. Its God's work. We preach the word. I can't even judge myself.

But being awake it to understand the blindness around us. Its a serious matter. Fear God and tremble. Be alert and sober minded and not conformed to the thinking and wisdom of this blind world.

Sober minded is not having political and religious division and contention, and it would be not having wealth, luxury and lusts

It would be lowly minded, meek in wisdom, peaceful, gentle, humble, contrite, broken, merciful, compassionate, forgiving, helpful, caring, giving, generous, hospitable, and harmless. In my understanding of scripture.

These are the words of a humble servant of Jesus Christ.
