*INTRODUCTION*
*/Much of our culture runs counter to what we say we believe./*
*/Therefore we are faced with a dilemma about what to do, how to live out what we believe./*
*/In a dog eat dog world how is a Christian to behave?/*
*/Are we to react and work like the world?/*
*/Are we to simply be passive and allow the world to take advantage of us?/*
*/The Apostle Paul helps us with some very practical truths about how a Christian is to related to a pagan and secular society... /*

*/(1 Peter 2:21‑23) /*/To this you were called, because Christ suffered for you, leaving you an example, that you should follow in his steps.
{22} "He committed no sin, and no deceit was found in his mouth."
{23} When they hurled their insults at him, he did not retaliate; when he suffered, he made no threats.
Instead, he entrusted himself to him who judges justly./
