Living Blamelessly in the World
When Paul was on trial before Governor Felix, he began with the defense that in Jerusalem, he was not, “disputing with anyone or stirring up a crowd, either in the temple or in the synagogues or in the city.” Everywhere he went, Paul protected his reputation. He strove to live an honorable life that his critics could not use against him. The way we live our lives will either lend credibility to the Gospel or will undermine the credibility of the Gospel. We must make sure we are living honorable and blameless lives before unbelievers. (Scripture: Acts 24:10-21)
