Bible Texts:
Christ
Our Example:
Matthew
16:24 KJV
Then
said Jesus unto His disciples, If any man will come after Me, let him
deny himself, and take up his cross, and follow Me.
Mark
10:43-45 KJV
43
But so shall it not be among you: but whosoever will be great among
you, shall be your minister:
44
And whosoever of you will be the chiefest, shall be servant of all.
45
For even The Son Of Man came not to be ministered unto, but to
minister, and to give His life a ransom for many.
John
13:14,15,34 KJV
14
If I then, your Lord and Master, have washed your feet; ye also ought
to wash one another's feet.
15
For I have given you an example, that ye should do as I have done to
you.
34
A new commandment I give unto you, That ye love one another; as I
have loved you, that ye also love one another.
Romans
15:5-7 NLT
5
May God, who gives this patience and encouragement, help you live in
complete harmony with each other, as is fitting for followers of
Christ Jesus.
6
Then all of you can join together with one voice, giving praise and
glory to God, The Father of our Lord Jesus Christ.
7
Therefore, accept each other just as Christ has accepted you so that
God will be given glory.
Philippians
2:5-8 KJV
5
Let this mind be in you, which was also in Christ Jesus:
6
Who, being in the form of God, thought it not robbery to be equal
with God:
7
But made Himself of no reputation, and took upon Him the form of A
Servant, and was made in the likeness of men:
8
And being found in fashion as A Man, He humbled Himself, and became
obedient unto death, even the death of the cross.
Colossians
3:13 NLT
Make
allowance for each other’s faults, and forgive anyone who offends
you. Remember, The Lord forgave you, so you must forgive others.
1
Timothy 4:12 KJV
Let
no man despise thy youth; but be thou an example of the believers, in
word, in conversation, in charity, in spirit, in faith, in purity.
Hebrews
12:1-4 NLT
1
Therefore, since we are surrounded by such a huge crowd of witnesses
to the life of faith, let us strip off every weight that slows us
down, especially the sin that so easily trips us up. And let us run
with endurance the race God has set before us.
2
We do this by keeping our eyes on Jesus, The Champion who initiates
and perfects our faith. Because of the joy awaiting Him, He endured
the cross, disregarding its shame. Now He is seated in the place of
honor beside God’s throne.
3
Think of all the hostility He endured from sinful people; then you
won’t become weary and give up.
4
After all, you have not yet given your lives in your struggle against
sin.
I
Peter 2:21 KJV
For
even hereunto were ye called: because Christ also suffered for us,
leaving us an example, that ye should follow His steps:
I
John 2:6 KJV
He
that saith he abideth in Him ought himself also so to walk, even as
He walked.
I
John 3:16 KJV
Hereby
perceive we the love of God, because He laid down His life for us:
and we ought to lay down our lives for the brethren.
Prayer:
Ephesians
5:1,2 NLT
1
Imitate God, therefore, in everything you do, because you are His
dear children.
2
Live a life filled with love, following the example of Christ. He
loved us and offered Himself as A Sacrifice for us, a pleasing aroma
to God.
