We are Called to Imitate Jesus on this Earth School Journey!

 

Present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto God. 

~ Romans 12:1

We are called to be holy, upright, people of goodwill, to be acceptable to our God Almighty! God gave us His son Jesus, Emmanuel, God with us, He was sent to us as our example, our model to live by, we are called to imitate Jesus, to reflect Him in all we do. He was given to us by God, as our model to follow and imitate as we go about our Earth World journey! 

The Mornings With God App today said,  "Doctrines are the roots from which duties grow.  After eleven chapters of severe logic, the strongest kind of strong meat, we have now five chapters of the most practical sort of teaching. Roots are necessary to beautiful plants, and doctrines are necessary to duties. Moralities without doctrines at the back of them are rootless plants. The two phrases, “a living sacrifice,” and “be ye transformed,” give us the key of all the beautiful lessons in this chapter. We are to give ourselves to Christ as a sacrifice laid upon the altar, and are to grow into all divine loveliness of disposition and character. In becoming Christians we become members of the body of Christ. This implies that it is the life of Christ that is in us, and that it is the life of Christ that is in us, and that we must be like Him, since we are animated by His life. We can realize this beauty of life only by surrendering ourselves wholly to Christ, thus becoming in fact members of Him. Then shall we be in reality transformed into the likeness of Christ."

Imitate Jesus the best you can, that is what we are called to do! Reflect Him! He is our model to follow as we journey on this Earth School!
