OUR ACTIONS AND OUR BELIEFS As you have therefore received Christ Jesus the Lord, so walk in Him, rooted and built up in Him and established in the faith, as you have been taught, abounding in it with thanksgiving. (Colossians 2:6-7 NKJV) As Christians, we must do our best to make sure that our actions are accurate reflections of our beliefs. Our theology must be demonstrated, not only by our words but, more importantly, by our actions. In short, we should be practical believers, quick to act whenever we see an opportunity to serve God. We may proclaim our beliefs to our hearts’ content, but our proclamations will mean nothing – to others or to ourselves – unless we accompany our words with deeds that match. The sermons that we live are far more compelling than the ones we preach. So remember this: whether you like it or not, our life is an accurate reflection of your creed. If this fact gives you cause for concern, don’t bother talking about the changes that you intend to make – make them. And then, when your good deeds speak for themselves – as they most certainly will – don’t interrupt. Although God causes all things to work together for good for His children, He still holds us accountable for our behavior. ~Kay Arthur~ Either God’s Word keeps you from sin, or sin keeps you from God’s Word. ~Corrie ten Boom~ Question: How can you guard your steps?
