Actions speak louder than words....

"You cannot have a proud and chivalrous spirit if your conduct is mean and paltry; for whatever a man's actions are, such must be his spirit."
Demosthenes (384 BC - 322 BC)


We are the devil's enemies. We have taken a stand in our faith, and the world is watch us closely. We are the hands, feet, and mouth of God to the "unsaved" world. They are looking to us to get a picture of who "God" is and why they would need to consider a relationship with him.

This is a lot of responsibility. And we need to understand the importance of our actions. Living the life of a Christian is not something that we can take for granted. It is a constant work, which requires continuous modifications and maintenance.

That is why the Bible tells us to sharpen our faith daily. We do this by reading the scriptures, praying, and by our fellowship with "like minded people." God (Father, Son, and Holy Spirit) is the only one who can bring us to where we need to be in order to give a "correct representation" of who God is to the world. We can't change the hearts of the unsaved, but we can make sure that we are giving them a good example of Christianity, and the freedom we have in Jesus Christ.

This is not a sermon, it's simply a reminder of the importance of staying "Fresh in our Faith"
