One of the wisest things we can do for ourselves as people is walk in integrity. Walking in integrity means that we are constantly walking in truth and doing things according to God’s plan, rather than following the mischievous plan of the enemy. To walk in integrity also means to do what is righteous in the eyes of God, even behind closed doors. We have to be mindful that as believers in Christ, we are “living epistles” (2 Corinthians 3:2); we are the story of who Christ is to many, therefore we have to do our best to exemplify Christ through our lifestyle and make sure He is being glorified. When we share Christ with others, we should be able to use our lifestyle to back up what we are saying.
When we look at the word of God, we learn that from John 10:10 that the enemy comes to “steal, kill, and destroy”. If he can come up against our character and demolish it, he has gotten one step closer to building up His kingdom by causing us to lose our witness and potential to win souls for the Kingdom of God.
True enough, there will be people who may lie and diminish your character through their lies, but the word tells us what Jesus is the truth, and us being Kingdom believers in Christ, the truth will eventually be illuminated. When we walk in integrity, who we are will always overshadow who people say we are.
When we look in the book of Acts, one of the qualifications of the men chosen to help with Kingdom work was that they had to have a good repor (Acts 6:3). As people of
First and the most important teaching that Jesus says it about a million time is to love
1. Galatians 6:10 “As we have therefore opportunity, let us do good unto all men, especially unto them who are of the household of faith” (King James Version).
Mob mentality is shown in “Lord Of The Flies” by showing how the boys adapt to their social status, from trying to copy what everyone else is doing and changing their mindsets and behaviors. The boys all show a big example of how mob mentality can form within a small group, from the boys following Ralph’s and Jack’s commands and joining in on the other boys' actions out of instinct. Mob mentality can consist of following good and bad behaviors depending on the group. Most of the boys in the “Lord of the Flies” all went through a mob mentality. Mob mentality is a psychological phenomenon where a human's behavior changes to fit within a certain group.
Religion why exactly is it so important to the novel Chronicle of a Death Foretold by Gabriel Garcia-Marquez. Is it due to how society is shaped over the years around it or is the novel depend on the cultures and their specific religions.
According to Ephesians as a christian I am supposed to live a life where I would be worthy of being called a christian. To me that means being kind hearted, loving, and living a life with meaning. Like others I am not perfect but I believe we should always be kind to one another no matter the differences. I think it is especially important in today’s society, where it seems as if the negative is outweighing
When it comes to living out the beliefs of the Christian worldview, the way to do so is by attempting to emulate the behaviors that Jesus displayed during his limited time on earth. This is because as Christians we are expected to live a life that mirrors his since Jesus lived a sinless life and had a perfect relationship with the Father. Trying to emulate the behavior of Christ and by virtue living out the virtues of life is based upon the examples left within the Bible. In the Bible, Christ showed how his followers were to live out his teachings in their everyday lives despite the persecution that they would face from others. Instances of this include when he told Peter not to fight the guards, when he spoke of turning one's cheek, and when
Christians today need to grow in love and to show that love through concern and service for the well-being of others. We need to put the care and well-being of others above our care and concern for ourselves. We need to love all people, not just the ones that are like us, or that are nice, or that can help us get what we want. This love for people will reflect God’s love for all people which He made clear by His laws in the Old Testament and the sacrificial death of Christ for our sins in the New Testament.
In all of our ways we, the true believers in Christ are to follow his kingdom laws, we seek to do things the godly way, and he promises to add things which we need in
In Rhetoric, it is very easy to manipulate someone, but if someone can learn to use these rhetorical tools to push a point, but not manipulate them, then it is moral. There is a fine line between rhetoric and truth. The question is, should we strive to be on that line or stay away from it? Rhetoric could be for truth, trying to push Christianity, while truth is always moral and never for evil. Rhetoric is the art of using words skillfully in speaking or writing.
The idea of a life without opposition is a fantasy to all humanity. We inquire on different method to elude our opposition, rather than equipping ourselves with practical solutions to withstand the oppositions. Satan has worked overtime to victimize the church into believing that we have no control over our mind, our actions, and our outcome. We are convinced that all opposition is bad or conjured by the enemy, when in reality many of our opposition is self-inflicted or sometime just out of our control. The armor of God is our only answer to our victory over spiritual warfare. The truth of God’s word holds up our spiritual armor together. We need to trust that the one who is truth, and the truth of his word in order to put on the loin belt of truth. Every part of the armor reflect members of our body that needs protection our mind, heart, our direction, our physical health and that is just scratching the surface of the enemy target. “You have forfeited your victory by rejecting the most important piece of weaponry of all: the Word of God” Rick Renner. Through the armor of God, comes the attributes of God that alter our attitude and self-reflection. Furthermore, the information provided through the course of this reading was not only familiar but also expounded on a deeper level of what it mean to wear the armor of God, the responsibility in maintaining the armor of God, and the power of the armor of God as we summit our flesh and mind to the Holy Spirit.
3. Paul says what everybody has to do to stay away from the evil and sin, and closer to the Lord. (6:14-16)
In a world that does not know the Gospel anymore, we must indulge in it, and love our fellow community though they may not share similar values, but find balancing in still remaining in our own values. Though many of times we find ourselves in opposition of the majority of the world, we must exude Christ love onto others as He does to us unconditionally. The author addresses ways in which we are able to live out our faith and still find a place within our community though they may not share similar values.

The true nature of living a life through the image of God is not done by simply reading from the text, but acting through it. Galatians chapter 6 verse 2 states “Bear one another’s burdens, and in this way you will fulfill the law of Christ.” As Christ gave his life for the selfless love of us, we must honor that by in turn pouring out love onto others. We must let people lean on us for strength and guidance, and in turn we will lean on them. In my life, it can be easy for me to be selfish in my actions. It’s hard sometimes to go out of my way to give people a loving presence
