How do you live among unbelievers?


Good morning everyone!! Yes, yes, another great day designed by God for us to praise Jesus Chirst for shedding His blood for our sins. What a glorious heavenly father we have.

A Christians life is not easy. We must always have our armor on with our guard up. Churches fight within themselves......for what? A split, and both sides will claim it in the name of God. We drive like crazies, in a hurry, cutting people off with a Christian sticker in the back window.......for what?

What type of image are YOU casting forth before the unbelievers. If you cast your bread upon the water will it return to you?

1 Peter 2:12 "Be careful to live properly among your unbelieving neighbors. Then even if they accuse you of doing wrong, they will see your honorable behavior, and they will give honor to God when he judges the world."

WOW!!!! If our actions are above reproach, even hostile people will end up praising God. Peter's readers were scattered among unbelieving Gentiles who were inclined to believe and spread vicious lies about Christians. Gracious, godly, and winsome behavior on the part of Christians could show these rumors to be false and might even win some of the unsaved critics to the LORD.

Don't write off people because they misunderstand Christianity, instead, show them Christ by your life. The day may come when those who criticize you will praise God with you. Wow! This verse if very powerful. Thank you for reading. Love you all.

In Christ's Love and Grace
