Ridiculous Expectations

This will be quick, I promise...

Paul's writing to Titus and in chapter 2 he gives an account of what Jesus did

1) He appeared
2) He brought Salvation to all men
3) He instructed us to deny ungodliness
4) He instructed us to deny worldly desires &
5) He instructed us to live sensibly, righteously, and godly in this present age!!!

Notice that this is the last thing Paul speaks of Jesus doing before he goes into what our reaction to doing these things are...

"...to live sensibly, righteously and godly in the present age, looking for the blessed hope and the appearing of the glory of our great God and Savior, Christ Jesus."

So why is it that some actually believe that they can live any way they want while on God's green earth and still expect to be happy when they see "the glory of our great God and Savior, Christ Jesus"? Is this not the most ridiculous expectation ever?!?
