Re:Verse passage –Colossians 3:18-4:1 (day five)
One of the questions I would frequently ask teenagers as we talked about the scriptures and Christian faith was, “If I asked those closest to you to describe your faith, what would they say?” Paul often points to our closest relationships (especially marriage and families) as a litmus for genuine and practical evidence of Christian faith. So, to ask the question again in this context, “How would your family members describe your faith in Christ?” Our faith must permeate all our relationships leaving especially those closest to us with no doubt about the presence and power of the Lord. Our faith not only shapes the way we initiate love and care in our relationships, it also is reflected to the way we respond to that same kind of love and care.
Thank you Scott. Well said Sir.
