Theme: “The good witness of the Christian family”
Text: 1 Peter 2:9
9. But you are a chosen race, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, an acquired people, that you may proclaim the virtues of him who called you out of darkness into his marvelous light,
Let's remember:
The whole life of every Christian must be a good testimony. We must be a good witness. The Christian must make the declaration of what he has seen, heard, to be in the service of the truth. But the truth is Jesus Christ. Our role is to contribute to the establishment of the kingdom of heaven. We serve to advance God’s justice, love, and kingdom. There are false testimonies which announce falsehood, lies. There are Christians who retract at the time when they should be giving a good testimony long awaited by God. This must not be our behavior because on the contrary, we are a chosen race, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, an acquired people, so that we announce the virtues of God who has called us from darkness into his admirable light. We are a race set apart, a race chosen by God. We are a royal priesthood; we are a holy nation. We are an established people, we must announce the virtues of God. Within the Christian family, there must reign a good witness which must serve to increase the love of God in the hearts of the faithful. The choice to belong to this family was made by God, he elected us to be part of the Christian family and to be a good witness. The Christian is a priest, a pastor, a servant of God. We occupy a position which is particularly respectable because of the dedication to others that it requires. We must therefore have a good testimony because the world looks at us as models to follow. Have a great Tuesday. Amen
