The Far Reach of Christians

"The worldling's Bible is the Christian. He never reads the Book, but he reads the disciple of Christ, and he judges the Christian religion by the lives of its professors! The world does not read the Bible—the world reads Christians!" —Charles Spurgeon

You may be the only Jesus the world ever sees. What is your conduct saying about Jesus? The world judges Jesus by the lives of His professing disciples. Do they see Jesus in you?

"A Christian is a walking sermon. Christians preach far more than a minister does, for they preach all week long!" —J. C. Ryle

"Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father who is in Heaven." Matthew 5:16

"For it is God's will that by doing good, you should silence the ignorant talk of foolish men!" 1 Peter 2:15

"As a prisoner for the Lord, then, I urge you to live a life worthy of the calling you have received. Be completely humble and gentle; be patient, bearing with one another in love." Ephesians 4:1-2
