BREAKFAST WITH CHRIST

TOPIC: LIVING A GODLY LIFE

SCRIPTURE: TITUS 2:11-12

"For the grace of God has appeared that offers salvation to all people. It teaches us to say “No” to ungodliness and worldly lust, and to live self-controlled, upright and godly lives in this present age".

Welcome to BWC. What does it mean to be godly? What does it mean to live a godly life? It is not enough to just go to church, pray or read the Bible. God expects us to live a godly life. So today, we start a series on how to live a godly life.

Godliness is a Christian character. Godliness goes beyond spirituality. It is the way a Christian must live his/her life to please God. So a godly life is a life that pleases God. Godliness is living for God with your whole being. Every thing about you is devoted to God.

In the Old Testament, Godliness is obedience to the laws of God. But in the New Testament, Godliness is believing in Jesus Christ and living for Him. We are not Christians if we don't live for Jesus Christ. Our lives must reflect Jesus. We must live to please God.

WHO IS A GODLY PERSON?

Are you a godly person? A godly person is a person who fears God. A godly person lives to please only God. A godly person lives in complete obedience to the sovereign Word of God. A godly person lives for God.

We cannot be godly if we live in sin. We cannot be godly if we love money or the things of this world. We cannot be godly if we enjoy carnal pleasure. We cannot be godly if sin is normal to us. The first stage of living a godly life is true repentance and consecration.

ARE YOU LIVING A GODLY LIFE? In our next breakfast, we will look at how to live a godly life. Stay blessed and be godly.

PRAYER LINE

Father, please help me to live a godly life. Amen.
