Respect


a WORD from God's Book

____________________________________________________________________
Frivolous talk provokes a derisive smile; wise speech evokes nothing but respect.

Don't walk around with a chip on your shoulder, always spoiling for a fight. Don't try to be like those who shoulder their way through life. Why be a bully? "Why not?" you say. Because God can't stand twisted souls. It's the straightforward who get his respect.

[ Relationships ] Out of respect for Christ, be courteously reverent to one another.

Show respect for everyone. Love your Christian brothers and sisters. Fear God. Show respect for the king.

Remind the people to respect the government and be law-abiding, always ready to lend a helping hand. No insults, no fights. God's people should be bighearted and courteous.

As a result, people who are not Christians will respect the way you live, and you will not need to depend on others to meet your financial needs.

Proverbs 14:3 Proverbs 3:30 Ephesians 5:21 1 Peter 2:17 Titus 3:1 1 Thessalonians 4:12

To enjoy your walk with God, keep in step with His Word.

LIFEgroups – together experiencing God!
