The Consequences of Choices
God has granted us the gift of free will and the ability to make choices. However, every choice we make bears consequences, even ones we may not have considered. Whether we choose virtue or vice, telling the truth or lying, there are inherent outcomes tied to our choices. Virtuous choices lead to becoming virtuous individuals, whereas vices lead to becoming vicious. It is crucial to acknowledge that our choices have ramifications, and as adults, God allows us to experience the consequences of our decisions. Though mitigating factors and lack of full knowledge can impact culpability, we must recognize the gravity of our choices and their inherent outcomes.
