ALL ARE SINNERS IN NEED OF A SAVIOR!



BE YE SEPARATE!

In a day when the world is calling for One World Government; One World Religion; chip implants; etc.; this verse reminds us that born again believers are not free to follow the crowd:  we belong to Jesus Christ, and we are to keep ourselves free to serve and honor Him!

Passages which demand separation from false teachers and from religious apostasy are as follows:

1.         AVOID THEM (Romans 16:17).

2.         REJECT (Titus 3:10).

3.         RECEIVE HIM NOT (2 John 10).

4.        FROM SUCH TURN AWAY (2 Timothy 3:5).

5.         LET HIM BE ACCURSED (Galatians 1:8-9).



AND YET, BE YE CIVIL!

The believer in Christ has explicit responsibilities towards all men as he represents Christ in the world.

 

1.         He is to be a witness before all men (Acts 1:8).

2.         He is to be Christ’s ambassador to all men (2 Corinthians 5:20).

3.         He is to preach the Gospel to all men (Mark 16:15).

4.         He is to shine as a light before all men (Matthew 5:16; Philippians 2:15).

5.         He is to do good to all men (Galatians 6:10; 1 Thessalonians 5:15).

6.         He is to walk in wisdom towards all men (Colossians 4:5; 1 Corinthians 10:32).

7.         He is to pray for all men (1 Timothy 2:1).

8.         He is to provide things honest in the sight of all men (Romans 12:17; 1 Thessalonians 4:12).

9.         He is to live peaceably with all men (Romans 12:18; Hebrews 12:14).

10.       He is to let his moderation be known unto all men (Philippians 4:5).

11.       He is to honor all men (1 Peter 2:17).

12.       He is to have a good report (testimony) before all men (1 Timothy 3:7; 2 John 12).


REMEMBER, 

APART FROM YOUR GOD-GIVEN FAITH

IN JESUS CHRIST, YOU ARE JUST LIKE THEM!
