The Christian Graces Add To Your Faith – Godliness

If We Are Going To Be Godly,

We Need To Put Him First In Our Lives In order to put God first in our lives, we must understand more about who God truly is Creator – Genesis 1:1; John 1:3; Col. 1:15-16 Eternal – Genesis 21:33 Holy – 1 Peter 1:15-16 Love – 1 John 4:7-11; John 3:16 It is because of the love of God that we can have the salvation of our souls – 2 Corinthians 5:1

We Need To Put Him First In Our Lives By putting God first in our minds, we will put Him first in our lives (or actions) To be godly, we must put God first in our lives

We Must Take The Time To Be Godly Just as we take time to exercise physically, we must take the time to exercise spiritually It is through the word of God that we gain the knowledge for godliness that we need – 2 Peter 1:3; 1 Timothy 6:3-6; Titus 1:1-3 It is also important that we teach our children how to be godly.

When We Are Godly We Are Profitable For All Things We have the promise that now is There is also that promise which is to come – Titus 2:11-14
