You’ve probably heard it said that you are the only Bible some people will ever read. I heard the tag line, “and you’d better believe people read it” added by somebody one day. The Bible actually says that both of those things are true. So Christians need to always be aware of what they are saying and how they are acting. If we get a bad name then we give Jesus a bad name too. That’s not love for Him OR for others.
“You yourselves are our letter, written on our hearts, known and read by everybody. You show that you are a letter from Christ, the result of our ministry, written not with ink but with the Spirit of the living God, not on tablets of stone but on tablets of human hearts.” 2 Corinthians 3:2-3
