Christian Characteristics 1

God gives spiritual gifts that differ according to the grace given (see yesterday’s list), but ALL Christians are called to a lifestyle where the following actions are exhibited (Romans 12.9-13):

  • Let love be genuine
  • Abhor what is evil
  • Hold fast to what is good
  • Love one another with brotherly affection
  • Outdo one another in showing honor
  • Do not be slothful in zeal
  • Be fervent in spirit
  • Serve the Lord
  • Rejoice in hope
  • Be patient in tribulation
  • Be constant in prayer
  • Contribute to the needs of the saints
  • Seek to show hospitality

If that is not enough, then look for tomorrow’s holy list, which includes a number of commands for dealing with evil or quarrelsome people.
