How Will They Know We Are Christians?

How Will They Know We Are Christians?

Scripture Reading: John 13

Focus Verse: John 13:34   "So now I am giving you a new commandment.  Love each other.  Just as I have loved you, you should love each other.

(I am back to teaching the Christian Community devotions and we are on lesson 8)

We must ask ourselves how will the world know that we are Christians?  We could tell them with our mouth.  But if we say that we are Christians, our actions better be ready to backup what we say.

There are many Christians in the world today that are not obeying what Jesus said in John 13:34.  Jesus lived out what He preached.  In our scripture reading we see how Jesus served His disciples even though he was their teacher and leader.  This was a great example of how we should not strive to be served, but to seek out how we can serve one another in the body of Christ.  The community will see how the people of the church can love one another, take care of one another and serve one another.  Then they will know we are Christians.

Who is your fellow Christian that needs to be served today? What will you do to show love to them?
