Pharisees, scribes, priests, and lawyers must be excellent teachers, but they fail in real life without true peace, full grace, and meeting the Lord who is the true Messiah.
Being an example is very difficult.
First, I must have a strong will and passion to imitate someone else. Second, I need the ability to live my life so that others want to imitate me.
What kind of life is the life of an imitator of Christ?
The life of a saint clearly has priority in everything. The order of things is very important. The saints will always live in this order to have a blessed life. If the priorities of a believer's life are broken or changed, life becomes difficult.
We must do it for the glory of God.
Whether we eat or drink, or whatever we do, it is not centered on me or people.
You must not be a stumbling block.
Jews are those who believe in God or those who have not converted to Christianity. The Greeks refer to the people of the world who have not yet known God. The Church of God refers to those who believe in Jesus but have not yet stood firm in their faith.
Do not seek your own interests, but put the interests of others first.
Except for the glory of God, the benefits that the church seeks must first be yielded. We must please everyone so that we may be saved.
The most important thing for a Christian to set an example is the matter of faith.
You must show an example of faith. To set the example of faith, God's work must follow. You must show an example of love. It takes hard work and dedication to set an example of love. You have to have hope and persevere. Jesus is hope. People behave differently according to their wishes.
Dear saints,
We cannot imitate Jesus, and it is far more and more difficult to live as someone else's example, but I believe that the earnest desire to imitate the Lord is the grace that the Holy Spirit gives us and the hope of the saints.
