Bible Reading: Jeremiah 22 & 23; Titus 1
“Paul, a servant of God and an Apostle of Jesus Christ for the faith of God’s elect and the knowledge of the truth that leads to godliness –Titus 1:1 (NIV).
Those who claim to speak the true message of Christ must be ready to have their message judged by whether it produces true godly character in the lives of those who accept the message. The same is true of those who claim they believe in Christ’s message; their faith must be shown by Christlike character and behaviour.
No church, ministry or individual has the right to claim that their beliefs and messages agree with the “sound doctrine” of God’s Word and the “sound instruction of our Lord Jesus Christ (1Tim 6:3) if that message or doctrine does not lead its followers to lives that reflect Christ’s character (1 Corinthians 13:1).
