What they see
"Therefore, preparing your minds for action, and being sober-minded set your hope fully on the grace that will be brought to you at the revelation of Jesus Christ.
As obedient children, do not be conformed to the passions of your former ignorance, but as he who called you is holy, you also be holy in all your conduct, since it is written,
You shall be holy, for I am holy," 1Peter 1:13-16.
As believers in Christ we are called,
To prepare our minds to work for Christ.
To be sober-minded.
Setting your hope fully on the grace that comes from the revelation of Jesus Christ.
Do not conform to the evil desires you had prior to knowing Christ.
Be holy as Christ is holy.
This is a lifestyle. In fact someone has said Christianity is not just a religion "it is a lifestyle."
It is a lifestyle that people will notice even without us saying one word.
Francis of Assisi said,
"The deeds you do
may be the only sermon some persons will hear today"
Francis of Assisi
"Preach the Gospel at all times
and when necessary use words."
Francis of Assisi
Please think about it.
