"Let your garments always be white and let your head lack no oil."
Ecclesiastes 9.8
It is difficult to live in a world that is so entangled in sin and yet maintain your garments white. However, it is not impossible. The secret behind maintaining yourself pure in an impure world is fearing the Lord and obeying His voice. The more sinful you are, the more effective God's power is.
The Almighty never asks for something that is impossible to do.

THE GREATEST VICTORY
"For whatever is born of God overcomes the world. And this is the victory that has overcome the world—our faith."1 John 5:4The Lord Jesus overcame the devil and the world because He was born of the Spirit of God. Being a member of a Christian church, remaining faithful to your vows and attending Sunday service doesn't necessarily mean that you are born of God. What characterizes those who are born of God is their initiative to live apart from sin, which is the greatest victory of those who are truly born of the Spirit.
