We, fellow Christians, are described in scripture in many ways. Which description used is based upon the relationship under consideration. We are described as growing together as family, serving together as soldiers, living together as citizens, and maturing together as Saints. All these terms are collective, describing our functional Christian relationship as we live toward God.

Without Love you cannot be the person that God created you to be.

God is Love! We are designed in God’s image. Which means, we are to BE LOVE as God is Love!

Paul writes in Ephesians 4:20-32 about the changes that should have taken place in the lives of those who “learned Christ.” He enumerates both positive and negative statements regarding aspects of conduct and character, even stating the reason, “and give no opportunity to the devil.” Read this short section of Scripture before proceeding.

I am sure you have driven on roads passing damaged guardrails. You wonder, “What happened there? How would someone hit a guardrail there?” I met a fellow years ago who told me he was very happy for guardrails. He told me his story of driving in the Colorado Rockies during the late evening hours, right at sunset. The twisting road was snaking its way through steep terrain. He said he took his eyes off the road for just a moment when bang! He hit a guardrail.
