Marks of a Life that Points to Christ

Sunday, 25. May 2025

Our lives, what we say, & what we do should point others to Jesus Christ. If this is not true of us as a Christian, then we are failing.
Here are 3 Marks of a life that points to Christ from Ephesians 5:1-17

  1. The Mark of Love (vs 1&2)
    • The love of Christ is a choice
    • The standard of love is to love as Christ loves
    • The sacrifice of love exceeds our comfort level
    • The savour of love is sweet to God
  2. The Mark of Holiness (vs 3-13)
    • As children of light, sin should and will bother us
    • We are to put away all sin
    • Guard yourself against sin
  3. The Mark of Prudence (vs 14-17)
    • Walk circumspectly (carefully, perceptively, discerningly) because there is much that can hurt us & our reflection of Christ to others
    • Redeem the time (buy up, ransom) - Christ redeemed us, so we redeem our time

Walk in Love - Walk in Holiness - Walk in Prudence
