“We Are To…”
Blessings folk!
We continue to examine the “how” of OneAnother…
Let us ask ourselves if we do so…
OneAnother/Saints/Lord/Me
If we live this way, the world will be drawn to the Lord.
If not?
Well, we see that already…
They see the hypocrisy.
Live this way and hypocrisy will be crushed.
“We Are To…”
Blessings folk!
We continue to examine the “how” of OneAnother…
Romans 12:10-13
10 Be devoted to one another in brotherly love; give preference to one another in honor;
11 not lagging behind in diligence, fervent in spirit, serving the Lord;
12 rejoicing in hope, persevering in tribulation, devoted to prayer,
13 contributing to the needs of the saints, practicing hospitality.
Look at the actions involved…
Look to who/where/how the action is directed…

- be fervent...in spirit
- serve...the Lord
- rejoice...in hope

OneAnother/Saints/Lord/Me
If we live this way, the world will be drawn to the Lord.
If not?
Well, we see that already…
- people leaving the fellowship of the church
- people refusing to gather with the Body
They see the hypocrisy.
Live this way and hypocrisy will be crushed.
