Topic: Behave Like a Christian
Selected Scripture: Romans 12: 9-21
Key Point to Remember: Love is to be the guiding principle in Christian relationships not only with fellow believers (vv. 9-13), but with enemies as well (vv. 14-21). Paul mentions many specific Christians duties that are to characterize transforming living, but love is the dominant note in all the exhortation.
Romans Teaches: Growing in Godliness Through Jesus, we have received abundant grace and the gift of righteousness. This grace does not give us license to sin but grants us the freedom to live and grow in godliness.
Love, humility, and unity are to motivate godly living. Godliness prefers others, and does not abuse freedom, and honors others in the body of Christ.
Key Point to Remember: Overcome evil with good, having love for God and love for others as your motive. Live to love.
Additional Scripture to Read: John 13: 31-34----The New Commandment
I am praying God continue to bless us all: KEEP HOPE ALIVE
