Transformed in Purpose
I Corinthians 1:12-2:4
If you have ever been misunderstood or misunderstood others, you know how awkward and frustrating that can be. How do we handle those who misunderstand us when we are seeking to be authentic and real as a follower of Christ?
2 Corinthians 1:12-23 NASB1995
1 Peter 1:15-16 NASB1995
Ephesians 4:29 NASB1995
Commit yourself to holiness- Walk the talk
· Is your conversation and behavior pure and above reproach?
· Who can I ask to help me in this area?
Communicate clearly for the benefit of others- Say what you mean, mean what you say
· Do your words build up or tear down?
· Are you speaking without thinking or thinking before speaking?
· Who could tell me if my words bring life or death to those who hear?
Count on the Lord’s return- Live your life today in light of the coming of the Lord
· What are the things you can let pass and what are the things you need to follow through with?
· Am you excited about the Lord’s return or are there some things that you need to change?
· Who might help you with those changes?
