LIVING AN EXEMPLARY CHRISTIAN LIFE PART 3
1 Timothy 4.12

Do let anyone despise your Youth:

Youthfulness is a seasonal and most precious gift from God

It is a phase of man's Life that cannot be reversed.

God desires that we spent our youth wisely and in alignment with His will.

We are to remember our creator in the days of our youth

We must not allow the excitement or Pleasures of youth to draw us away from our creator but rather draw ourselves CLOSER to God.

Having an effective and impactful Life at youth begin with walking in the Fear and reverence for God.

Being a Youth that will live an exemplary Life on earth is what make us unique and different from the people in the world.

we must present ourselves to God as a Living sacrifice knowing well that we are a Living epistle in the World.

We have the Potential and the ability to Live a healthy Life and EXEMPLARY life In our sphere of influence.

The Justice of God demand Righteous judgement on sinners but yet God chose not to Condemn us by justifying us through the sacrificial death of his only begotten son Jesus Christ on the cross.

Jesus Christ died to set us Free by His own blood to satisfy the rightful desires of God for justice without partially or Compromise of God's perfect character.

we are saved by Grace through mercy by the confession of faith accomplished with genuine repentance that brings about Salvation of soul and transformation of Life.

LOVE DOESN'T INTIMIDATE ONE ANOTHER:

Rom.14.10 So why do you condemn another Christian? Why do you look down on another Christian? Remember, each of us will stand personally before the judgment seat of God. (NLT)

INTIMIDATION is when one person tries to control, silence, or overpower the other by creating fear or emotional discomfort; making someone feel afraid, or less confident so they will do sth or feel powerless.

INTIMIDATION IN INTERPERSONAL RELATIONSHIPS:

✓ Using HARSH or threatening tone to speak to someone
✓ Blocking someone's paths; slamming doors, punching Walls, or throwing object at someone
✓ Standing too close in a confrontational way; threatening to spread rumors
✓ Giving silent treatment on purpose
✓ using popularity, age, money, or authority to pressurize someone to do sth
✓ Knowing someone secrets and threatening to expose it to the public
✓ Acting in a way meant to frighten someone or making aggressive gestures

INTIMIDATION is a force the enemy uses to Enslave a Man; we must not allow it in our relationship with one another as children of God.

a life of faith, purity and purpose

The Goodness of God leads us to repentance and Salvation not Keep us in Sin.

LOVE DOESN'T PROVOKE ONE ANOTHER

Everything we do as children of God towards one another should be done in the Love of God; We must not provoke one another because anything we do that cause others to Fall is not of God.

Provoking One another means doing what makes one another angry or tense; to challenge, irritate, stir up rivalry, or create competition.

Provoking one another proceeds from the heart of insecurity, pride, Validation and comparison. It doesn't promote UNITY, Love and peace but rather brings about Competition, rivalry and Self-conceit Which opposes the Law of the Spirit of Life of Love that is in Christ Jesus.

PROVOCATION Flows from ENVY and Leads to CONCEIT (Empty glory)

LOVE doesn't not PROVOKE but rather PROMOTE one another in good works, godliness, success and fear of the Lord (Hebrew 10.24)
