WHY DO MOST PEOPLE DO NOT STEAL?

NOT

BUT

I am learning that …

… most people do NOT steal because they fear GOD, …

They do not steal because stealing is wrong. The Bible, the word of God, says, “‘YOU SHALL NOT STEAL.'”  End of story! That is also one of the ten commandments. The Bible says also that we must work, that we must do something usefull with our hands. When we work and do something usefull with our hands, we have something to share with those in need. Please read Ephesians 4:28.

… BUT that they do not steal because they fear MEN.

They are afraid that they get caught by the police. They are fearful not only to lose their reputation but they are also fearful that they lose their job. 

Most people have the wrong kind of FEAR. The Bible says, “Fear God and keep his commandments, …” Ecclesiastes 12:13
