THROUGH THE BIBLE IN THREE YEARS

On the first tee of the usual threesome golf game, the first golfer made two swings that went over the ball.
Snickers were held back, smiles were offered.
The golfer said, "Gotta get used to these new spikes I put in my shoes, they make me stand taller than the ball."

Phil 2:13-15
13 For it is God which worketh in you both to will and to do of his good pleasure.
14 Do all things without murmurings and disputings:
15 That ye may be blameless and harmless, the sons of God, without rebuke, in the midst of a crooked and perverse nation, among whom ye shine as lights in the world;
KJV

A committed Christian has God working "IN" him.
A committed Christian has God working "THROUGH" him.
A committed Christian's conversation should be such that others about him know he stands for Christ, and should see the image of Christ reflected in his personality.
A committed Christian lives "blameless and harmless" in the world.
And most importantly, a committed Christians "shine(s) as lights in the world."
We are to shine! Shine the emblem of Christ and the Word of life.
Light also guides. We are to guide people to the Savior, instructing from the Word the way of salvation.
Light also warns. We are to warn people from the evils of sin and the darkness of eternal hell.
Light also comforts and cheers. We are to comfort people telling them there IS a Savior Who desires to give them forgiveness and eternal life. We are to cheer people showing them that Christ has died, risen, and can offer them eternal heaven.
"Ye are the light of the world . A city that is set on an hill cannot be hid." Matt 5:14
