As Christians, our number-one priority is to represent Christ well to this lost and broken world (Acts 1:8). Because Jesus is honest, kind, loyal, and honorable, we should strive to be those things as well (Ephesians 5:1), and all of those qualities contribute to a good reputation. People evaluate the worthiness of our message based on our reputations as people of character. If we have poor reputations, our message is tainted as well. Dishonesty, gossip, and hypocrisy damage our testimonies and do not reflect the character of Jesus. Many will not heed our words when our reputations do not match what we claim to believe. Nibe safety 😊 #Atimelyvoice
That's why it's so hard for us especially young people to interact with others because we're somehow treated as nobody's. SDA YOUTH or rather let me say SDAs, you guys should stop with this behavior. Because now it's like we're enemies instead of siblings. It should stop with immediate effect bazalwane, cause if Jesus was to come now. "Retlo bona mehlolo"🙌
😬😬🥹This conversation is so triggering! We honestly need to heal from Church trauma😭😭😭. Can our generation please do better? This Church is a vehicle of God's mission.
Proverbs 22:1 says, “A good name is to be more desired than great wealth, / Favor is better than silver and gold.” So the Bible encourages us to keep good reputations, whenever possible. This idea is echoed in Ecclesiastes 7:1, which says, “A good reputation is more valuable than costly perfume” . The Bible is clear that a good reputation is of great value and is therefore something that we should strive to earn and maintain. We may have flaw. However, doing things proudly in the name of "I'm also human" puts even God in a position of being insulted by fools because of our actions.
