FAITHFUL SAYINGS – FOR LIFE AND GODLY LIVING: UNDENIABLE VIRTUES – CHARACTER AND INTEGRITY!<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cAnd then you need to keep a sharp eye out for COMPETENT men\u2014men who FEAR God, men of INTEGRITY, men who are INCORRUPTIBLE\u2014and APPOINT them as LEADERS over groups organized by the thousand, by the hundred, by fifty, and by ten\u201d<\/span><\/i> \u00a0Exodus 18:21.<\/b><\/span><\/p>\n

Herein are some common sayings as well as some scriptural sayings, that are worth pondering – meditating and thinking – about and through, in cause of doing life and godliness in times and in matters of CHARACTER and INTEGRITY.<\/span><\/p>\n

** “People of genius are admired.<\/span><\/p>\n

People of wealth are envied.<\/span><\/p>\n

People of power are feared.<\/span><\/p>\n

But only people of CHARACTER are TRUSTED”<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0– Arthur Friedman<\/span><\/p>\n

** Be it known that the good of riches, friends, certificates, politics, charisma, enterprise and such like the more, may take you to the top, but only INTEGRITY will keep and sustain you there.<\/span><\/p>\n

** And CHARACTER and INTEGRITY are made possible by the indwelling precious, gracious and graceful Holy Spirit, which is given to us in the WORD. John 14:16-17; Romans 5:5.<\/span><\/p>\n

** “When wealth is lost, nothing is lost; when health is lost, something is lost; when CHARACTER is lost, ALL is lost”<\/span><\/p>\n

SCRIPTURAL THOUGHTS WORTH PONDERING IN CONTEXT:<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cAnd then you need to keep a sharp eye out for COMPETENT men\u2014men who FEAR God, men of INTEGRITY, men who are INCORRUPTIBLE\u2014and appoint them as LEADERS over groups organized by the thousand, by the hundred, by fifty, and by ten\u201d<\/span><\/i> Exodus 18:21<\/b>.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

“Finally, brethren, whatever things are TRUE, whatever things are NOBLE, whatever things are JUST, whatever things are PURE, whatever things are LOVELY, whatever things are of GOOD REPORT, if there is any VIRTUE and if there is anything PRAISEWORTHY\u2014meditate on these things”<\/span><\/i> Philippians 4:8.<\/b><\/span><\/p>\n

“Therefore I endure all things for the sake of the elect, that they also may obtain the salvation which is in Christ Jesus with eternal glory. 11 This is a FAITHFUL SAYING: For if we died with Him, We shall also live with Him. 12 If we endure, We shall also reign with Him. If we deny Him, He also will deny us”<\/span><\/i> 2 Timothy 2:10-12.<\/b><\/span><\/p>\n

“But reject profane and old wives\u2019 fables, and EXERCISE yourself toward godliness. 8 For BODILY exercise profits a little, but GODLINESS is profitable for all things, having promise of the life that now is and of that which is to come. 9 This is a FAITHFUL SAYING and worthy of all acceptance. 10 For to this end we both labor and suffer reproach, because we trust in the living God, who is the Savior of all men, especially of those who believe”<\/span><\/i> 1 Timothy 4:7-10.<\/b><\/span><\/p>\n

“That having been JUSTIFIED by His grace we should become heirs according to the hope of eternal life. 8 This is a FAITHFUL SAYING, and these things I want you to affirm constantly, that those who have believed in God should be careful to MAINTAIN good works. These things are GOOD and PROFITABLE to men”<\/span><\/i> Titus 3:7-8.<\/b><\/span><\/p>\n

“But the FRUIT (CHARACTER) of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, 23 gentleness, self-control. Against such there is no law. 24 And those who are Christ\u2019s have crucified the flesh with its passions and desires. 25 If we live in the Spirit, let us also walk in the Spirit”<\/span><\/i> Galatians 5:22-25.<\/b><\/span><\/p>\n
