We have all, at one time or another, “gone with the flow,” as opposed to standing up to the crowd? Giving away a piece of our convictions, to be a part of something we would not normally do, brings hypocrisy into our walk. Paul tells us in Romans, “not to be conformed to this world, but to be transformed by the renewing of our minds.” (Romans 12:2)
He goes on to say that by renewing our minds (through the Word) we will then, “prove what is the good and acceptable and perfect will of God.” This allows us to; behave more Christ like, remain free from hypocrisy, avoid the appearance of evil and gives power to our walk. As Christians, we are constantly being observed by the world to see if we, “walk the talk.” Therefore what we do, becomes more powerful than what we say.
The Truth
“Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works and glorify your Father in heaven.” (Matthew 5:16)
