“TRAITS AND QUALITIES OF A GOOD CHRISTIAN!”

Saints of God Most High, hear God’s word for you today:

“And when he found him, he brought him to Antioch. They met with the congregation there for a whole year and taught a sizeable crowd. Also, it was in Antioch that the talmidim for the first time were called ‘Messianic.’” (Acts 11:26)

When he had found him, he brought him back to Antioch. For a whole year, they assembled together with and were guests of the church and instructed a large number of people; and in Antioch, the disciples were first called Christians.

QUALITIES OF A GOOD CHRISTIAN

A Christian must be friendly to others. A friend in need is a friend indeed.

A friend is not just the one with whom an individual has established a long-standing relationship.

A Christian friend must be a gracious person, shining and burning for his or her master even as he or she brightens his or her own world.

Every Christian must join us in the corridor of care, charisma and comeliness as we obey the Lord to practice goodness, graciousness and godliness.

A Christian must be all sweet not easily provoked or angered by anybody or anything.

We need not unnecessarily raise our voices to complain, no matter how hurt we may feel.

We must be easy going with others but not foolish.

Yes, people may take advantage of the fact that we are full of the milk of human kindness, still we must not overly react.

Majority of the people may maliciously taunt you just to see you react for once in an off-handed manner, yet we must not lose our cool.

As Christians we must not miss any opportunity that comes our way to help others even when we are confronted with an unusual problem that seems to be out of our reach to help.

We must always stand by people to help.

Show kindness and love to both your friends and foes. These attributes distinguish you from the unbelievers.

YOU ARE CHRIST’S AMBASSADORS, THEREFORE, SHINE FOR HIS GLORY!

Everybody shout, “THANK YOU, JESUS!”
Shalom and good morning.
