Basics of the Christian Faith - Living for God

There has been quite a bit of work being done at the end of our street this week, and it was very frustrating having half the road closed at the bottom of Coonawarra Drive. What was frustrating was that I could see that if I just went around the signs, there was nothing stopping me from getting to the end of the street. It would be easy to take the short cut and ignore the sign. And ignore the danger.

As we look at living for God this coming Sunday, in our second week on the basics of the Christian faith, this temptation to ignore the way God would have us live and instead take what we think we can see as the short cuts in this life, is a temptation that Christians ought to say 'no' to. As people indwelt by the Holy Spirit, ungodliness and worldly passions have no place in our lives.

As it is written in Philippians 2:27,
"Whatever happens, conduct yourselves in a manner worthy of the gospel of Christ."
(some other passages to read ... Romans 8:9-14; Colossians 3:1-17; Galatians 5:16-25)
