Adorn the doctrine of God our Savior

Daily Light Devotions - March 14 - Morning

Adorn the doctrine of God our Savior ...

not pilfering, but showing all good faith, so that in everything they may adorn the doctrine of God our Savior. 1

Only let your manner of life be worthy of the gospel of Christ, so that whether I come and see you or am absent, I may hear of you that you are standing firm in one spirit, with one mind striving side by side for the faith of the gospel, 2

Abstain from every form of evil. 3

If you are insulted for the name of Christ, you are blessed, because the Spirit of glory and of God rests upon you. But let none of you suffer as a murderer or a thief or an evildoer or as a meddler. 4

that you may be blameless and innocent, children of God without blemish in the midst of a crooked and twisted generation, among whom you shine as lights in the world, 5

In the same way, let your light shine before others, so that they may see your good works and give glory to your Father who is in heaven. 6

Let not steadfast love and faithfulness forsake you; bind them around your neck; write them on the tablet of your heart. So you will find favor and good success in the sight of God and man. 7

Finally, brothers, whatever is true, whatever is honorable, whatever is just, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is commendable, if there is any excellence, if there is anything worthy of praise, think about these things. 8
