A Christian will portray to the world the fruit of the Spirit as outlined in II Peter I:5-11. A Christian also will be viewed by the world as different. This is to be expected since Peter describes Christians in I Peter 2:9 as a "special people". We have "been with Jesus" today when we are students and followers of His word. We are not at liberty to pick and chose which part of it we wish to be obedient to, but endeavor to follow and obey the Lord in everything. Jesus said,"If you love Me, keep my commandments." John 14:15. The Hebrews writer states "And having been perfected, He became the author of eternal salvation to all who obey Him," Hebrews 5:9. Finally, John states in I John 2:3 "Now by this we know that we know Him, if we keep His commandments." When we strive to "walk in the light" as John states in I John I:7 and let the blood of Jesus Christ His Son cleanse us from sin the world will see Christ living in us and know that you "have been with Jesus." After all, when we are baptized into His body where else can we be except with the Lord? |
