We have been summoned out of this world by Jesus so that we may walk in his holiness. We must always live a holy life to demonstrate that we are his people. Our lives cannot be lived as we would like.
We must set an example for others around us since they are constantly watching us. We must be centered on Christ in both our speech and our deeds. We must understand that the way we live reflects Jesus to unbelievers.
We discover the real life that God intended for us to give in Jesus, and we must honor God with our lives. We must always keep in mind that our words and deeds reflect God’s likeness. Therefore, we must exercise extreme caution in regard to the lives we are currently living.
