Last week, we ended our worship service with this passage from Colossians 3:
"Let the peace of Christ rule in your hearts, since as members of one body you were called to peace. And be thankful. Let the message of Christ dwell among you richly as you teach and admonish one another with all wisdom through psalms, hymns, and songs from the Spirit, singing to God with gratitude in your hearts. And whatever you do, whether in word or deed, do it all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God the Father through him."
Colossians 3:15-17
If the peace of Christ rules in the hearts of believers, and whatever we do, whether in word or deed, is done in the name of the Lord Jesus... where should that start? THE FAMILY!
Paul instructed that all human relationships be based on the concept of serving and working for the Lord.
A life devoted to continual prayer is essential for a follower of Jesus.
The Word of God clearly commands us to use Godly wisdom and grace in how we interact with non-believers.
