BEING DIFFERENT

Titus 3:1-2 ASV "Put them in mind to be in subjection to rulers, to authorities, to be obedient, to be ready unto every good work, to speak evil of no man, not to be contentious, to be gentle, showing all meekness toward all men."

Christianity is not only about claiming the promises of God and manifesting the power of God; it is about being like Christ, being different from the rest of the world, influencing people positively and manifesting the love of God to all men.

People complain about the number of churches springing up, not because it is wrong to open churches, but because they've seen no real difference between them and us. We abuse our leaders and bosses just as they do, we quarrel with people like they do, we break laws as they do, we talk like them, and our relationships and marriages are no different from theirs.

Choose to be different. The fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, meekness, and self-control: and, I love what the apostle said, against such there is no law! We can never be wrong and faulted manifesting the fruit of the Spirit. Here's what God wants; for men to be drawn to Him as a result of our lives.
