Vital Godliness - 2

It’s pattern and sources in Christ ..

Hebrews 5:7

During the days of Jesus’ life on earth, he offered up prayers and petitions  with fervent cries and tears  to the one who could save him from death, and he was heard  because of his reverent submission.

It’s treatment by the world ..

2 Timothy 3:12

In fact, everyone who wants to live a godly life in Christ Jesus will be persecuted,

It’s pursuit by believers ..

1 Timothy 4:7

Have nothing to do with godless myths and old wives’ tales;  rather, train yourself to be godly.

1 Timothy 6:11

But you, man of God,  flee from all this, and pursue righteousness, godliness,  faith, love,  endurance and gentleness.

It’s importance in view of Eternity ..

2 Peter 3:11

Since everything will be destroyed in this way, what kind of people ought you to be? You ought to live holy and godly lives

2 Corinthians 5:17

If  anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; the old has gone, the new has come!

We all like "do-overs" or second chances. God does much better than that! He allows us to become new again. Being the "God of new things" he can even make us new. Beyond forgiveness, beyond cleansing, he makes us holy through Jesus. Let's use the opportunity of a New Year as a springboard for living a life fresh and new and alive for God!

Bible Promises

. 1 Peter 1:3

Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ! In his great mercy he has given us new birth into a living hope through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead.
