Be faithful to the Word!

Titus 2:10 not pilfering, but showing all good fidelity, that they may adorn the doctrine of God our Savior in all things.
At first glance this verse may seem strange to you. I want you to focus on the last part of the verse: “that they may adorn the doctrine of God our Savior in all things.” Doctrine is a belief or set of beliefs held and taught by the bible for the followers of Jesus. The church of today does great harm to itself by not following the doctrines of God as stated by the bible but man taking his own interpretations and living in what he deems as right. This is why the lost see the church as hypocritical. 

J.C. Ryle said “Sound Protestant and Evangelical doctrine is useless--if it is not accompanied by a holy life. It is worse than useless; it does positive harm.”
So this morning I want us to look at our own lives and ask ourselves, am I putting on and wearing the doctrine of God our Savior in everything in my life? Or am I picking and choosing parts of the bible I want to follow and disobey the other parts?

Be faithful....obey God in all areas of doctrine and faith! It is of the utmost importance to us and the lost!
