Genesis 6:1-7:10; Job 8:1-22; Matthew 5:1-20
Be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed… Romans 12:2
I saw a banner which said, “What is popular is not always right (true) and what is right (true) is not always popular”. These words challenge us as to how we, as believers, should conduct ourselves when faced with the world’s degrading standard of acceptable behaviour. How do we discern what is right and true? Here are three suggestions:
1. Read God’s Word (Josh. 1:8).
2. Pray and ask the Spirit of God to help you understand God’s will (John 16:13).
3.Seek out the counsel of godly men and women (Prov. 15:22).
Always remember, we are not to be conformed to this world. —Bob Cretney
Give me a new, a perfect heart,
The mind which was in Christ, impart. —C. Wesley
