Are You a Godly Example to Others?

Shaila  D Touchton
The Bible tells us that we are to be a good example, showing others the love of Christ through our behavior and life styles. We should do all we can to bring others into God's Kingdom and never do anything that would cause a person to stumble in his Christian walk. You need to choose this day whom you will serve. You can serve God and ask Him to clean up your life, or you can continue serving your own fleshly desires which leads to indirectly serving devil.

1 Tim 4:12 "Don't let anyone think less of you because you are young. Be an EXAMPLE TO ALL THE BELIEVERS in what you SAY, in THE WAY YOU LIVE, in YOUR LOVE, YOUR FAITH, and in YOUR PURITY."

Titus 2:7 "You yourself MUST BE AN EXAMPLE TO THEM by doing GOOD WORKS OF EVERY KIND. Let EVERYTHING YOU DO reflect the INTEGRITY and SERIOUSNESS of your TEACHING."

John 13:15 Jesus says, "I have given you an EXAMPLE TO FOLLOW. Do as I have Done to you"

1 Thess 1:7 Paul says, "You have become an EXAMPLE TO ALL THE BELIEVERS in Greece- throughout both Macedonia and Achaia."

Phil 3:17 Paul says, "Dear Brothers and Sisters, PATTERN YOUR LIVES AFTER MINE, and LEARN from those who FOLLOW OUR EXAMPLE."

2 Thess 3:9 Paul says, "We certainly had the right to ask you to Feed us, but we wanted to give you an EXAMPLE TO FOLLOW."

Eph 5:2 "Live a life filled with love, FOLLOWING THE EXAMPLE OF CHRIST. He loved us and offered Himself as a sacrifice for us, a pleasing aroma to God."

1 Tim 1:16 Paul says, "But God had mercy on me so that Christ Jesus could use me as a PRIME EXAMPLE OF HIS GREAT PATIENCE with even the worst sinners. Then others will realize that they, too, can believe in him and receive Eternal Life."

    In few words with deep meanings, you once again bring out the power of truth. It seems so often that the Christian world is chasing all but a holy lifestyle. Thank kyou for helping to focus the vision.

    Absolutely wonderful article Shaila. and this is sooo true. If we fail to live up to a godly example, then we fail to immitate Christ as Paul said we are to do. You are such a wonderful writer and your Bible wisdom does much good here. God bless and thank you for the Happy Father's Day message today.
