"Live such great lives among the agnostics, that . . . they may see your great deeds and celebrate God!" 1 Peter 2:12
"Whoever says he resides in Him- - should walk and act similarly in which He strolled and behaved." 1 John 2:6 (Amplified form)
We require more sermons in shoes- - men and ladies going here and there the streets of life lecturing Christianity by their impersonation of Christ!
The request of the day is for a higher standard and style of Christian life. Each supporter of Christ must speak to His religion simply, grandly, stunningly - before that large number of "Book of scriptures perusers" whose exclusive Bible is the Christian!
"The genuine trial of religion, is in the road. It lies in the regular strolls of life- - much more than in the love of the haven. The trial of our religion is not the general way in which we go to chapel, or the path in which we read our Bibles, or any detailed religious custom we perform. Its test is the sort of individuals it makes us- - the sort of life it creates in us."
"A fine delineation of the value of Christian character was found in an educator of one of the administration schools of Japan. His agreement was that he was not to show Christianity- - and, so far as words were concerned, he kept it dependably. In any case, at the same time his life was so exemplary and lovely - that it took every necessary step without words. As proof of this, forty of the understudies, without his insight, met in a woods subtly, and marked a contract to spurn excessive admiration - for the religion of their instructor. Some of them are presently lecturing the gospel in their local land."
"Let your light sparkle before men, that they may see your great deeds and acclaim your Father in Heaven!" Matthew 5:16
"That you may end up plainly innocent and unadulterated, offspring of God without blame in an abnormal and corrupted era, in which you sparkle like stars in the universe!" Philippians 2:14-15
"So that all around they will make the educating about God our Savior alluring." Titus 2:10
"Be imitators of God, in this manner, as profoundly cherished kids and carry on with an existence of adoration - similarly as Christ cherished us and surrendered Himself for us" Ephesians 5:1-2
