1John; 2:6
(He who says he abides in Him ought himself also to walk just as He walked.)
It's easy to say we belong to God and we may fool others by that statement, but our walk will reveal whether we know Jesus as Lord and Savior or not. We can't be part of the world and yet try to be a shinning light for Jesus They just don't mix. To walk in the light means we need to be honest with our self and others. When we sin, we must immediately confess that sin to God and ask for forgiveness. We cannot walk in communion with God and have sin hidden in our life. God tells us He is holy and we need to be holy.
Obedience to God is another character of God's children. There are three reasons a person will obey. You might obey because you have to, or maybe you need to, or the best reason is you want to. You want to because He is your Heavenly Father and you love Him. Small children want to please their parents and God's children want to do the same. God loves us and we love God, it's very simple. To be able to walk as Christ walked though, we must have the Holy Spirit guiding us. Without Him we would not be able to walk as Christ walked. Our flesh wants to do the things of the flesh and we need the Spirit to be able to walk in the Spirit.
Galatians; 5:16
(I say then: Walk in the Spirit, and you shall not fulfill the lust of the flesh.)
Remember, you are not going to be able to walk as Christ walked without Christ in your life. If you haven't done so, ask Jesus to come into your life and give you eternal life in Him. We all have to make a choice in life to follow Jesus or not. If you chose Jesus you'll have eternal life in Heaven, if you don't chose Jesus you'll spend eternity in the Lake of Fire (Hell). God showed His love for you when He sent Jesus to die for your sins on the cross. Show your love for Him by giving your life to Jesus.
God Bless You!
