Learning from Christ and replicating His virtues.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Acts 1:1 The former treatise have I made, O Theophilus, of all that Jesus began both to do and teach,<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Our Lord lived an impeccable lifestyle, during His earthly ministry, doing and teaching God’s words in entirety.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
He did all , He taught.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
He did this exemplary lifestyle and left same for all His faithful followers of all ages and you in particular.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
1 Peter 2:21 For even hereunto were ye called: because Christ also suffered for us, leaving us an example, that ye should follow his steps:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Our Lord lived a deliberate sanctified lifestyle.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
John 17:19 And for their sakes I sanctify myself, that they also might be sanctified through the truth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
He has given commandment to all His faithful followers of all ages and you in particular to learn of Him and replicate it, to draw multitude into His kingdom.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Matthew 11:29 Take my yoke upon you, and learn of me; for I am meek and lowly in heart: and ye shall find rest unto your souls..<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Both in the old and new testaments, the scriptures severally reveals God’s commandments to doing and teaching His eternal, infallible unchanging unfailing words.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Old<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Deuteronomy 16:12 And thou shalt remember that thou wast a bondman in Egypt: and thou shalt observe and do these statutes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Ezra 7:10 For Ezra had prepared his heart to seek the law of the LORD, and to do it, and to teach in Israel statutes and judgments.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
New.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Matthew 5:19 Whosoever therefore shall break one of these least commandments, and shall teach men so, he shall be called the least in the kingdom of heaven: but whosoever shall do and teach them, the same shall be called great in the kingdom of heaven.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Matthew 7:24 Therefore whosoever heareth these sayings of mine, and doeth them, I will liken him unto a wise man, which built his house upon a rock:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
John 13:17 If ye know these things, happy are ye if ye do them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Revelation 22:14 Blessed are they that do his commandments, that they may have right to the tree of life, and may enter in through the gates into the city.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Unfortunately, just like multitude in the church world globally today, who are saying but not doing the words. So religious people were doing in Bible days.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Matthew 23:1 Then spake Jesus to the multitude, and to his disciples, 23:2 Saying, The scribes and the Pharisees sit in Moses’ seat: 23:3 All therefore whatsoever they bid you observe, that observe and do; but do not ye after their works: for they say, and do not.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Romans 2:19 And art confident that thou thyself art a guide of the blind, a light of them which are in darkness, 2:20 An instructor of the foolish, a teacher of babes, which hast the form of knowledge and of the truth in the law. 2:21 Thou therefore which teachest another, teachest thou not thyself? thou that preachest a man should not steal, dost thou steal? 2:22 Thou that sayest a man should not commit adultery, dost thou commit adultery? thou that abhorrest idols, dost thou commit sacrilege? 2:23 Thou that makest thy boast of the law, through breaking the law dishonourest thou God? 2:24 For the name of God is blasphemed among the Gentiles through you, as it is written.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
2 Timothy 3:5 Having a form of godliness, but denying the power thereof: from such turn away.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Titus 1:16 They profess that they know God; but in works they deny him, being abominable, and disobedient, and unto every good work reprobate.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Because you desire to live eternally with God, doing and teaching God’s words in its entirety is a compulsion.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Matthew 5:19 Whosoever therefore shall break one of these least commandments, and shall teach men so, he shall be called the least in the kingdom of heaven: but whosoever shall do and teach them, the same shall be called great in the kingdom of heaven.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Revelation 22:14 Blessed are they that do his commandments, that they may have right to the tree of life, and may enter in through the gates into the city.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
His grace will be sufficient for you in Jesus name.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
2 Corinthians 9:8 And God is able to make all grace abound toward you; that ye, always having all sufficiency in all things, may abound to every good work:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
