Have this mind among yourselves, which is yours in Christ Jesus
Philippians 2:5, ESV
We were made to imitate God, who is loving, compassionate, and willing to serve and help anyone.
Put on then, as God’s chosen ones, holy and beloved, compassionate hearts, kindness, humility, meekness, and patience,
Colossians 3:12, ESV
As a Christian, are you known for your compassion, kindness, humility, patience, and your ability to not be easily offended or thought stupid/ ignorant/gullible/foolish?
All of these can be hard, but especially in this current world we struggle with meekness.
I therefore, a prisoner for the Lord, urge you to walk in a manner worthy of the calling to which you have been called
Ephesians 4:1, ESV
It is not enough to say you are a Christian. It takes more than simply going to church. It is a life change, and we should be growing in and showing love, respect, patience, and kindness to people while standing up for truth.
“Judge not, that you be not judged. For with the judgment you pronounce you will be judged, and with the measure you use it will be measured to you.”
Matthew 7:1-2, ESV
Jesus never said “never judge.” He warned to use good judgment, but realize you invite judgment from others.
Judge yourself first according to Scripture, then help others do the same.
Greater love has no one than this, that someone lay down his life for his friends.
John 15:13, ESV
Just as Christ – God become Man – sacrificed Himself for our sins, we should be willing to sacrifice anything and everything for the sake of others in the love and name of Christ.
He has told you, O man, what is good; and what does the Lord require of you but to do justice, and to love kindness, and to walk humbly with your God?
Micah 6:8, ESV
Do not seek what is fair, but what is just.
Show kindness to all, not only those who agree with you.
Realize your need for God to change you, not try to change your own life or things in this world.
Therefore be imitators of God, as beloved children. And walk in love, as Christ loved us and gave himself up for us, a fragrant offering and sacrifice to God.
Ephesians 5:1-2, ESV
Give yourself completely over to God for His will.
Just as the Son lived among us and gave Himself for our good, we likewise should go into our world to share the Gospel in love.
