    A Clean Mirror Series

    Contributed by Doug Johnston on Jun 7, 2001
    based on 35 ratings
     | 4,217 views

    If we are to imitate Christ as Paul asks us to in 5:1, we must keep our lives clean by allowing nothing to dirty the mirror that is our life so we may reflect Christ clearly.

    Paul tells these people to follow (5:1), or mimic, God as they demonstrate a worthy walk (4:1) that should be part of every Christian’s lifestyle. We must mirror God’s ideals in daily living. Controlling My Wants (2-3) Is my attitude one of giving, or taking (2) ? Is what consumes me open or ...read more

    Instead of hiding our eyes from God’s light, we should approach it and take it for our own use and to light the lives of others.

    Living in darkness: Seen by unclean acts [here, primarily immoral] (1-5) Makes one an object of God’s wrath [active punishment] (6) Joining with disobedient people (7) Is a description of a believer’s former condition (8) We must light the darkness we live in.

    Let the Son Shine! 1) On you; 2) Through you

    Even if the temperatures don’t always reflect it, the position of the sun proves it. Spring is on its way! Sure there is still lots of snow on the ground and the sidewalks are plenty icy, but the sun keeps climbing higher and staying longer in the sky – a sure sign of spring’s approach. I’m ...read more

    The Church is called the bride of Christ to stress the purity we should maintain, as well as the sense of anticipation we have awaiting the coming of our bridegroom.

    Max Lucado tells a story from ages past about a stately prince and a peasant girl who fall in love. This really a difficult one to understand. On the one hand is a prince who literally had the world at His disposal. There has never been a more perfect specimen of a man that ever lived. Nothing ...read more

    What's That Smell

     | 11,416 views

    Cologne and Perfume cover up the smell, but only for a time. Nice clothes and a fake attitude cover up hidden sins, but only for a time. The only way to be truly clean is to be seperated from sin.

    WHAT’S THAT SMELL INTRODUCTION One day while walking through the department store, I decided to stop by the cologne displays and try on some cologne. Now, I just couldn’t just try on one (could I?) I had to try on all the different brands that they had. Need less to say when I got into the ...read more
