Join Pastor Larry with a look back at his message “Shine As Lights” in Acts 24; Ephesians 4 from August 29, 2021.
Philippians 2:15, that you may be blameless and harmless, sons of God, without fault, in the midst of a crooked and perverse generation, in which you shine as lights in the world.
The world is perverse. How should Christians respond to that? It is to shine as lights.
We should want to shine bright for Jesus Christ.
We need to go and shine bright in the world no matter what you are doing or where you are at.
If you are a Christian, positionally you are a child of God. We are the light of Christ, but not everybody does it.
How can you shine as a light for Christ in everyday life?
Refuse to associate and participate in the works of darkness.
The believer’s actions, ethics, morals, and tactics should be vastly different thatn those who are without Christ.
Ephesians 4:25, Therefore, putting away lying, let every man speak truthfully with his neighbor, for we are members of one another.
1 Timothy 6:10-11, For the love of money is the root of all evil. While coveting after money, some have strayed from the faith and pierced themselves through with many sorrows.
The Good Fight of Faith
11 But you, O man of God, escape these things, and follow after righteousness, godliness, faith, love, patience, and gentleness.
2 Corinthians 4:6, For God, who commanded the light to shine out of darkness, has shone in our hearts to give the light of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Jesus Christ.
The Christian life is not just about what we don’t do. The Christian life is also about allowing God’s Spirit to fill us and bear His fruit in our lives, proving what is acceptable to the Lord.
