3Jn 1:11 Beloved, follow not that which is evil, but that which is good. He that doeth good is of God: but he that doeth evil hath not seen God.
Knowing what is good and what is evil is moral judgement. If we are not aware of what is evil, how will we know what is good? Everyone has a God given conscience to guide them. Often though, we listen to the world and are confused by what we see and hear. I believe we have got to the place of reversing what is evil for what is good as spoken by the prophet Isaiah.
Isa 5:20 Woe unto them that call evil good, and good evil; that put darkness for light, and light for darkness; that put bitter for sweet, and sweet for bitter!
Psa 38:18 For I will declare mine iniquity; I will be sorry for my sin.
Psa 38:19 But mine enemies are lively, and they are strong: and they that hate me wrongfully are multiplied.
Psa 38:20 They also that render evil for good are mine adversaries; because I follow the thing that good is.
The world may be against God's order of things. Humanists, socialists and communists do not want you following God and what is good. They are of the devil who is a liar, a thief and a destroyer. Jesus came to give us life, a rich and satisfying life, now and forever more. (John 10:10)
Fear God, turn from evil and come to Jesus who is the way to God, the truth of God and the life of God. (John 14:6)
