Christ's Copy Cats
Who are our models of faith? To whom do we look to as examples for imitating a godly life in Jesus Christ? Paul invites believers to imitate God and explains what this looks like: putting away falsehood and speaking the truth to our neighbors; being angry but not letting that anger lead us into sin; stealing must give way to work that will support those in need; having holy conversation that builds people up rather than tearing them down; not grieving the Holy Spirit; ridding our lives of things that pull us away from God – bitterness, angry outbursts, wrath, the cry of strife, slander and whatever is bad. In place of these things, God’s people are to be godly and Christ-like: tenderhearted, forgiving others as God in Christ has forgiven us. This is our calling in Christ: to imitate Christ's own example of humble and loving servanthood to others.
