Choose the Good Life and Reject Evil (Deuteronomy 30:15-20) Good News Translation

15  "Today I am giving you a choice between good and evil, between life and death.
16   If you obey the commandments of the Lord our God, which I give you today,
if you love him, obey him, and keep all of his laws, then you will prosper and become
a nation of people.  The Lord your God will bless you in the land that you are about to
occupy.
17   But if you disobey and refuse to listen, and are led away to worship other gods,
18   you will be destroyed---I warn you here and now. You will not live long in that land
across the Jordan that you are about to occupy.
19   I am now giving you the choice between life and death, between God's blessings and
God's curse, and I call heaven and earth to witness the choice you make. Choose life.
20   Love the Lord your God, obey him and be faithful to him, and then you and your
descendants will live long in the land that he promised to give your ancestors, Abraham,
Isaac, and Jacob."

The title, "Choose the Good Life and Reject Evil" is from Dr. Sammie Holloway, the Senior

Pastor of Breath of Life Christian Center's (BOLCC) sermon series.
