Ever made statements like these? It is my life I can do what I want. Or maybe who cares what they think. In today’s world we are often programmed to worry about us and nobody else. It is after all our lives and shouldn’t we live the way that makes us happy? I think of a lot of Bible here to combat what the world has to say. Let’s start with the fact that if you’re a follower of Christ you have been bought with a price and you no longer have the right to do what you want. Or maybe the one where we are not to be a stumbling block to anyone with our own actions. This includes things that we might want to do but would cause other people to have a bad picture of Christ. Then there is the one that we are to live as Christ did, allowing Him to live through us. Man that really hits me square in the face. That means that even when someone does you wrong that you don’t take revenge. Or if you really want to do something and for you it would be ok, but for others it might cause them to stumble. When Jesus died upon the cross for my sins I gave up the right to do, as I wanted to. I no longer have an opinion about things it is what the Bible says. Everything that I do in life have to be looked at through the glasses of what will it do to others? So the next time you make the statement it is my life I can do what I want, remember that if you are a follower of Jesus it isn’t yours anymore. We should always care what others might think about us because as many people have said before we might be the only Bible they may ever see. What kind of of Bible do people read when they see you?
