Our Priestly Service – Doing Good

Doing good is part of our priestly service as saints in the Church. This is not something that we should take lightly. Our good actions show forth who we are in Christ, defend us from false accusation, and show a proper opinion of God to all those around us. Doing things properly and paying attention to the things that are beneficial to others is as aspect of our relationship with God that He considers to be a well-pleasing Spiritual sacrifice.

Using Our Anger in a Correct Manner

What should we do in our anger? We can be wrathful but are not to sin in our wrath. We need to use it in a correct way. Expressing rage at unrighteousness is not sinful. Using that anger to stand for the truth and not back down is just. Exposing the works of darkness by living as luminaries in the midst of this corrupt and perverted generation is the best way we can use our anger.

Philippians – Contentment

I am strong in all things in Christ, the one empowering me. Philippians 4:13

1 John – Sin in the Life of a Christian

If perhaps someone discerns his brother sinning a sin not unto death, he will ask and He will give to him life, the one sinning not unto death. There is a sin facing death, concerning this I say in order that you do not question. 1 John 5:16

Understanding Lawlessness in Scripture

We as Christian are not under the Mosaic law; however, that by no means states we have no standards. Having been freed from the Mosaic law and the law of sin we are slaves to righteousness, which is in direct opposition to lawlessness. Our righteousness is in Christ, not the Mosaic law, therefore we live out this righteousness by living out who we are in Christ out from faith.

Different Types of Christians – A Lover of the World

We live in the world and are not called to be separated from it (John 17:15 I do not ask in order that you should take them out from the world, but in order that you should keep them out from the malignantly evil one), but in living in it we are to be luminaries to the corruption around us ( in order that you become blameless and harmless, children of God without fault in the midst of a crooked and perverse generation, among whom you shine as luminaires in the world), not abusing it (And those who use this world as not misusing, for the mask of this world is passing away – 1 Corinthians 7:31), but using it in a proper way to the show forth a proper opinion of who God is to those around us.
