The Godly Life

Why try to live the godly life? It isn't always going to be easy, but who said it would. There is often a lot of work involved. It is often inconvenient. So why should we even try? He tells us all that will live godly for Jesus Christ will suffer persecution. II Tim. 3:12

The reason is because of what God has already done for us. This is important. The reason that your life as a Christian is to be different is because you are now different. God has promoted us to a new position. We are heirs with Jesus Christ, which will lead us to the King.

We no longer have the same disposition, or the same identity. We are now rooted in who and what Jesus is.

We have received a new position, we did not earn that position. We did not deserve that position. It has been given to us as a free gift of God’s grace. Now God commands that we should live in accordance with that new position.

God has truly blessed us with some wonderful blessings. Will you water and nurture your blessing ... or will you bury your blessing?
