Seek the approval of God not of men

That which is highly regarded and sought after by men is an abomination to God because it is idolatry. The wisdom of men is foolishness to God. If we seek to be accepted by people then we are not suitable for the kingdom of God. We need to seek for the approval of God.
If the whole world loves us and praises us then we are not suitable for the kingdom of God because Jesus said that you will be hated by all men because of Me. Those who seek the approval of men and seek to progress in this world disregard Jesus Christ, they hate God. They seek to glorify themselves and for the pleasures of this world and therefor they are not suitable for the kingdom of God.
We need to seek the approval of Jesus Christ and we can only have His approval if we obey His words, if we deny ourselves, pick up our cross and follow Him every day.
If we seek after the tings of the world and the approval of men then Jesus Christ will turn us away the day that we die. Jesus said:”Seek ye first the kingdom of God and His righteousness and then all the other things will be added unto you..”
Are we seeking the approval of God or the acceptance of men because then we are unsuitable for the kingdom of God and we will spend eternity in damnation.
May Jesus bless you.
