GOD’S CLAIM ON
YOUR LIFE
One of the most 0b-
vious yet ignored facts of
history is that the God of
the Bible lays claim to the
group”. God does have a
claim on the way we live,
on the values we hold, and
on the attitudes by which
we live. “Then the Lord
spoke to Moses, saying,
“Speak to the children of

My ordinances, to walk in
them: I am the Lord your
God...” (Leviticus 18:14).
Three “lifestyles” are men-
tioned in these verses: one
for Egypt, one for Canaan,
and one set forth by God.
Israel was not to follow
the lifestyle of the nations
around them. They were
to observe, keep and walk
in the way set forth by
God. God had a claim on
their lifestyle.
Today, we live under
the New Testament But
God still has a claim on our
lifestyle. Jesus’ Sermon on
the Mount found in Mat-
The Message We Shared
In the end, spiritual im-
maturity can lead to great
damage. The gullibility
and vulnerability can be
exploited to destroy wit-
ness and sidetrack the
work of the church.
Spiritually maturity, on
the other hand, brings
great gain. The spiritu-
ally mature speak, pro-
fess, and follow the truth.
Scripture is treasured, the
Holy Spirit is embraced,
and the plans of God are
honored.
It leads to solid growth.
As the passage teaches,
the growth is in “every re-
spect.”
thew 5,6,7 is all about the
way we live. Jesus has
a claim on our lifestyle.
When the apostles wrote
to the churches, they
talked about lifestyle and
called on Christians to live
according to God’s high
standards. ,
I have prepared a
FREE twenty lesson Bible
course on the Christian
lifestyle. Write for it today
and learn God’s claim on
your way of life.
Thank you for reason-
ing with me.
growth ties believers to-
gether and to Christ. It
is Christ who holds them
all together. There is no
greater foundation or
bond.
The solid growth is re-
flected in the productiv-
ity of the church. “Each
part” does its work. This
results in the building of
the kingdom of God nu-
merically as new believers
are reached. Stronger and
more meaningful ministry
takes place. In the end,
God is glorified more and
more. l
