“The wrath of God is coming” upon all who unrepentantly engage in such practices as fornication, obscene jesting, and “uncleanness of every sort,” which would encompass the persistent viewing of pornography. (Eph. 5:3-5) Our appreciation for the ransom should keep us busy with “deeds of godly devotion.” (2 Pet. 3:11) Let us set aside ample time for regular and earnest prayer, personal Bible study, meeting attendance, family worship, and zealous Kingdom-preaching activity. And may we “not forget the doing of good and the sharing of things with others, for with such sacrifices God is well pleased.” (Heb. 13:15, 16) When Jehovah’s wrath breaks out upon this wicked system of things, how happy we will be that we have exercised faith in the ransom! And in God’s promised new world, we will be eternally grateful for this provision that saved us from God’s wrath.—John 3:16; Rev. 7:9, 10, 13, 14. w10 8/15 2:18-20
