Therefore, anyone who rejects this instruction does not reject a human being but God, the very God who gives you his Holy Spirit. 1 Thessalonians 4:8
How we live says a lot about our relationship with God. It is also a powerful witness to those around us. To live the perfect life of Christ is certainly too much for us, but as I mentioned earlier, we do not do it on our own but with the gift of God’s Holy Spirit urging us on and showing us the way. Let us pray that we would be always seeking to live for God.
He himself bore our sins in his body on the tree, so that we might die to sins and live for righteousness; by his wounds you have been healed.
