This means you!


Mark the perfect man, and behold the upright: for the end of that man is peace.


¶ Psalm 37 : 37

 Does your life hold up under scrutiny? We are told to "mark" or observe the perfect man and "behold" or understand the upright. Do you realize that for some that means that they are looking at your life? The word "perfect" means complete, not sinless, and if you have accepted Jesus as your Savior, then you are complete! There's no point in saying that it isn't fair that people can look at your life and judge you. We are called to live a life that points others to Jesus! Our end is set! Our eternity is everlasting peace, but those that refuse to know Jesus will never know peace! There is a quote that I like, " Your life is the only Gospel that some people will ever read". So the question is, "What kind of Gospel are you sharing?" Are you portraying a Gospel of fear? Do you feel like you have to do things to earn heaven or God's favor? Are you portraying a Gospel of hypocrisy? Do you live differently than you tell others that they should live? Or are you sharing a Gospel of forgiveness and love? Do you display God's love in your life and live in a way that points others to Christ? Like it or not, your life is on display, and you will be judged by others? Most importantly though, you will be judged by God.

Philippians 1:27-28

27Only let your conversation be as it becometh the gospel of Christ: that whether I come and see you, or else be absent, I may hear of your affairs, that ye stand fast in one spirit, with one mind striving together for the faith of the gospel;

28And in nothing terrified by your adversaries: which is to them an evident token of perdition, but to you of salvation, and that of God.

Conversation means life.
