Therefore be imitators of God, as beloved children.
Walk in Love
Self Gratifcation
Walk in Wisdom
Look carefully then how you walk, not as unwise but as wise,
making the best use of the time, because the days are evil.
Therefore do not be foolish, but understand what the will of the Lord is.
Therefore, we are ambassadors for Christ, God making his appeal through us. We implore you on behalf of Christ, be reconciled to God.
And do not get drunk with wine, for that is debauchery, but be filled with the Spirit,
Wine is a mocker, strong drink a brawler, and whoever is led astray by it is not wise.
“Research tells us that 1out of 7 people who drink become alcoholics. “I wouldn’t keep a dog in my house that bit 1 out of every 7 people who entered, and I won’t play around with a drink that has a solid chance of sabotaging and destroying my life or the life of someone I love.”“If 7 people follow my example and drink socially because I do, and one of them becomes an alcoholic, God holds me responsible. Is that a chance I am willing to take with my children, or in those who look up to me? Would Christian love really put others in this kind of risk? Every year, 1,700 college students die of over-drinking. That’s 4 jumbo jet liners packed with college students. What would the implications be for an airline industry that had that happen in 1 year? The dean of students at Duke says that easily 1/3 of all discipline related issues that comes through his office are alcohol related. If you could eliminate 1/3 of the problem on your campus by changing one thing, would you not think solely about doing that?” - Dr. JD Greear
addressing one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing and making melody to the Lord with your heart,
giving thanks always and for everything to God the Father in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ,
submitting to one another out of reverence for Christ.
“The word summit means to arrange under. It was used in the military to refer to the subordination of soldiers in an army to those of a superior rank. Good soldiers surrender control. They turn loose of their selfish agendas and live in submission and for the good of others. So it is with the Christian.” -Dr. Tony Merdia
