“ “You have heard that it was said, ‘Love your neighbor and hate your enemy.’ But I tell you, love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you, that you may be children of your Father in heaven. He causes his sun to rise on the evil and the good, and sends rain on the righteous and the unrighteous.” (Matthew 5:43-45)
Main thoughts: I. Obedience to Christ is the basis of Christian fellowship. II. Consistent conduct is critical for credible witness. III. Hard work doesn’t deny God’s Kingdom, it displays it. IV. Discipline is a tool for correction, not condemnation.
SUMMARY:The Christian life isn’t hard, it’s impossible! We need God’s grace each moment to be faithful to Him. How can you grow in the grace of God today?
