A Life That Lives Christ
A LIFE THAT LIVES CHRIST
In Philippians 4:5-9 we have the expression of a life that lives Christ. In this booklet we shall see six governing aspects of a life that lives Christ.
Paul gives us these governing aspects in verse 8: "For the rest, brothers, whatever is true, what ever is honorable, whatever is righteous, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is well- spoken of, if there is any virtue and if any praise, take account of these things."
WHATEVER IS TRUE
The first governing aspect of a life that lives Christ is "whatever is true." The word true here means truthful ethically, not merely true in mat ter of fact. In the expression of a life that lives Christ there can be no falsehood, no lying. Ev erything we do or say must be truthful. No one who lives Christ should practice falsehood of any kind. A life that is the expression of Christ is a truthful one.
WHATEVER IS HONORABLE
The second aspect is "whatever is honorable."
