We often ask ourselves, “How could the early disciples turn the world upside down?” The answer is simple: They didn’t conform their faith to match the world. They had the truth, and they refused to water it down. They held a faith that they would not compromise.
The words of the Apostle Paul, “Do not be conformed to this world,” have tremendous significance for us today. They cut like a sharp sword across our way of life. They are not comfortable words; they have the tone of the battle call in them. They separate the weak from the strong. But they are words of inspiration, and we need to hear them today.
Consider four Biblical reasons why Christians should avoid conforming to the world’s standards.
Heavenly Father, help me to live for You. May my thoughts, speech and actions be guided by You, not public opinion or political correctness. In Jesus’ Name. Amen.
