Romans 5:15

"But not as the offence, so also is the free gift. For if through the offence of one many be dead, much more the grace of God, and the gift by grace, which is by one man, Jesus Christ, hath abounded unto many." Romans 5:15

Signatures of a Disciple of Christ

Lord's Day, 3 March 2013, Nehemiah 9:1-7

What makes Christians different from others?

1. Read the Word of God with understanding. Nehemiah 8:2 - the Jews read the law, they understood who God is. W can start with Psalms and Proverbs. Psalms teaches us about God and who He is; while Proverbs tells us how to deal with others. 10 version of Psalms and 5 verses of Proverbs takes only 6 months to complete.

2. Be convicted and confess your sins. Nehemiah 9:2 - They submitted to The Lord and confessed.

3. Be separated from the rest. Distinct yourself. Nehemiah 9:2 - they need to step parts from the rest as they confess their sins.

4. Sing praises to The Lord for He deserves our prayers. Bless the name of the Lord. Nehemiah 9:5-7.

What we do represents us as a person and our belief. Demonstrate the right signatures as we are all called to do. "The steps of a good man are ordered by The Lord." Without God's guidance we can never hope to live the life of a good man.
