How we grow


God wants you to grow up. Your heavenly Father’s goal is for you to mature and develop the characteristics of Jesus Christ. Sadly, millions of Christians grow older but never grow up. They are struck in perpetual spiritual infancy, remaining in diapers and booties. The reason is that they never intended to grow.

Today many assume that spiritual maturity is measured by the amount of biblical information and doctrine you know. While knowledge is one measurement of maturity, it is not the whole story. The Christian life is far more than creeds and convictions; it includes conduct and character. Our deeds must be consistent with our creeds, and our beliefs must be backed up with Christ like behavior.

Think it over…..

Character is what you are in the dark….D. L. Moody.

Praise and Being Thankful

Hebrews 13:15 

Through Jesus, therefore, let us continually offer to God a sacrifice of praise—the fruit of lips that confess his name.

Men can be affected by

Heavy responsibilities

Numbers 11:11 

He asked the LORD, “Why have you brought this trouble on your servant? What have I done to displease you that you put the burden of all these people on me?

Evangelism

“Evangelism is not a professional job for a few trained men, but is instead the unrelenting responsibility of every person who belongs to the company of Jesus.” – Elton True blood
