What is the way to become a good person?
Faith = trust in a person.
Trusting in God is the root from which all other virtues spring. ~ Thomas Schriener
Goodness = excellent human character
Knowledge = practical wisdom through relational experience.
A little knowledge of God is worth more than a great deal of knowledge about Him. We are, perhaps, orthodox evangelicals. We can state the gospel clearly. We can smell unsound doctrine a mile away. Yet the question still arises: do we know our God?” “We must beware lest we become content with correct notions about God. Knowing about God is crucially important. But knowing about Him is not the same as knowing Him. We must go on to know God personally. Theology is only a means to this end. ~ J.I. Packer, Knowing God
Self-control = Wanting what Jesus wants
Endurance = strength to keep going
Godliness = living a whole life before God
Brotherly affection = patient kindness and support.
Love = willing the good of another
We become good by practicing Jesus’ virtues, Jesus’ way.
