27 Marks Of A Christian

27 Marks Of A Christian - Romans  12:9-21

This passage jumped out at me as I was in my devotions this morning.  These are the things that should be part of my "normal" day by day walk. Read through each of these characteristics and give yourself a "yes" or a "no."  This will make you think about whether you are living the Christian life as God intended you to live it.

1. Let love be genuine.
2. Abhor what is evil.
3. Hold fast to what is good.
4. Love one another with brotherly affection.
5. Outdo one another in showing honor.
6. Do not be slothful in zeal.
7. Be fervent in spirit.
8. Serve The Lord.
9. Rejoice in hope.
10. Be patient in tribulation.
11. Be constant in prayer.
12. Contribute to the needs of saints.
13. Show hospitality.
14. Bless those who curse you and do not curse them.
15. Rejoice with those who rejoice.
16. Weep with those who weep.
17. Live in harmony with one another.
18. Do not be haughty.
19. Associate with the lowly.
20. Never be wise in your own sight.
21. Repay no one evil for evil.
22. Give thought to what is honorable in the sight of all.
23. If possible, live at peace with all men.
24. Never avenge ourselves.
25. If your enemy is hungry - feed him.
26. If your enemy is thirsty - give him something to drink.
27. Do not be overcome with evil but overcome evil with good.
