Walk Not As Others!
By: Robert A. Searles
We
Christians who have been saved and enlightened by the Holy Spirit ought
not to walk as others in the world who have not known God. Our
lifestyle ought to be different according to the knowledge of God that
has been given to us by the grace of God, through the Holy Spirit. Our
conversation, or lifestyle ought to become more Christ like every day
and less carnal. There ought to be a different attitude in our heart, a
different cadence to our walk, and a different destiny and purpose for
our lives.
"This
I say therefore, and testify in the Lord, that ye henceforth walk not
as other Gentiles walk, in the vanity of their mind. having the
understanding darkened, being alienated from the life of God through the
ignorance that is in them, because of the blindness of their heart: Who
being past feeling have given themselves over unto lasciviousness, to
work all uncleanness with greediness. But ye have not so learned Christ:
If so be that ye have heard him, and have been taught by him, as the
truth is in Jesus: That ye put off concerning the former conversation
the old man, which is corrupt according to the deceitful lusts. and be
renewed in the spirit of your mind: And that ye put on the new man,
which after God is created in righteousness and true holiness. Wherefore putting away lying, speak every man truth with his neighbor:
For we are members one of another. Be ye angry, and sin not, let not
the sun go down upon your wrath: Neither give place to the devil. Let
him that stole steal no more; but rather let him labor, working with his
hands the thing which is good, that he may have to give to him that
needeth. Let no corrupt communication proceed out of your mouth, but
that which is good to the use of edifying, that it may minister grace
unto the hearers. And grieve not the Holy Spirit of God, whereby ye are
sealed unto the day of redemption. Let all bitterness, and wrath, and
anger, and clamor, and evil speaking, be put away from you with all
malice. And be ye kind one to another, tender hearted, forgiving one
another, even as God for Christ's sake hath forgiven you." Ephesians 4:
17-32
