Above is Satan, this is what he WANTS you to think.

With the youth in our generation having parties and rebelling is fun... right?

Now, we clearly know that God says... we are NOT trying to fit in.

Why? Why can't we fit in?

It says we cannot serve two masters, God and Satan (father of flesh)

We are not to indulge in things that God hates. Most high school, college, or adult parties are filled with worldly music, weed, alcohol, drug dealing, more drugs, devilish dancing, sensual women, lustful men, sex, unbelievers, and more ungodly things.

And sometimes sin leads to more other networks of sin e.g. a scenario I went through:

sin no.1) I lied about where I was going so I could go

sin no.2) I disobeyed my parents curfew

sin no.3) I smoked

sin no.4) I enjoyed getting boys attention from dancing sensually

sin no.5) I swore and talked rubbish to impress others around

sin no.6) I gossiped about the people around

sin no.7) I drank alcoholic drinks

It's an event of sin!

Don't use the I'm going to bring the gospel to them excuse or the Jesus hung out with sinners excuse because both are false. People who go to worldly parties do not go hoping to find God. Saying you are going to evangelize is just you finding a way to go to that party.

Don't be like the fake Christian hypocrites who shake their rear-ends and join in evilness at parties and clubs on Saturday, but a few hours later they're at church playing Christian. You can't play Christianity the only person you are fooling is yourself. People like this will be thrown into Hell. If God is working in your life you will grow in holiness not worldliness.

4. Peter 4:4 Of course, your former friends are surprised when you no longer plunge into the flood of wild and destructive things they do. So they slander you.

Ephesians 5:11 Take no part in the unfruitful works of darkness, but instead expose them.

3. Colossians 3:5-6 So put everything evil out of your life: sexual sin, doing anything immoral, letting sinful thoughts control you, and wanting things that are wrong.

Does going to a party glorify God?

6. 1 Corinthians 10:31 So, whether you eat or drink, or whatever you do, do all to the glory of God.

Matthew 5:16 In the same way, let your light shine before others, so that they may see your good works and give glory to your Father who is in heaven.

Ephesians 5:15-18 Look carefully then how you walk, not as unwise but as wise, making the best use of the time, because the days are evil. Therefore do not be foolish, but understand what the will of the Lord is. And do not get drunk with wine, for that is debauchery, but be filled with the Spirit.

10. 1 Peter 4:3 You have had enough in the past of the evil things that godless people enjoy–their immorality and lust, their feasting and drunkenness and wild parties, and their terrible worship of idols.

The Lord wants to use you for special purposes, so make yourself clean from all evil. Then you will be holy, and the Master can use you. You will be ready for any good work. Stay away from the evil things a young person like you typically wants to do. Do your best to live right and to have faith, love, and peace, together with others who trust in the Lord with pure hearts.

"Bad company ruins good morals."

16. Proverbs 24:1-2 Do not envy the wicked, do not desire their company; for their hearts plot violence, and their lips talk about making trouble.

14. 2 Corinthians 6:14-16 Be ye not unequally yoked together with unbelievers: for what fellowship hath righteousness with unrighteousness? and what communion hath light with darkness?

Deny yourself

17. Luke 9:23-24 Jesus continued to say to all of them, "Any of you who want to be my follower must stop thinking about yourself and what you want. You must be willing to carry the cross that is given to you every day for following me. Any of you who try to save the life you have will lose it. But you who give up your life for me will save it.

God will not be mocked

18. Galatians 5:19-21 The things your sinful old self wants to do are: sex sins, sinful desires, wild living, worshiping false gods, witchcraft, hating, fighting, being jealous, being angry, arguing, dividing into little groups and thinking the other groups are wrong, false teaching, wanting something someone else has, killing other people, using strong drink, wild parties, and all things like these. I told you before and I am telling you again that those who do these things will have no place in the holy nation of God.

19. Matthew 7:21-23 "Not everyone who says to me, 'Lord, Lord,' will enter the kingdom of heaven, but the one who does the will of my Father who is in heaven. On that day many will say to me, 'Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy in your name, and cast out demons in your name, and do many mighty works in your name?' And then will I declare to them, 'I never knew you; depart from me, you workers of lawlessness.
