“Be ye therefore, followers of God, as dear children; and walk in love, as Christ also hath loved us, and hath given Himself for us an offering and a sacrifice to God for a sweet smelling savor.”(Ephesians 5:1-2)
Paul the apostle gives instruction in his letter to the Church of Ephesus as to how we are to behave and conduct ourselves as a church and as private citizens.
There was a deacon in a church where I was the pastor a number of years ago. He would often say to the people, “Ask yourself this question, ‘If every church member were just like me, what kind of church would this church be?’”
Ask yourself that question in relation to your commitment to the Lord and your church. If everyone in your church were committed to the Lord the same as you and had the same morality that you have, would your church be better or worse?
