Changing the World

God gave us the Bible to provide us with instructions for changing the World. These instructions are to help us reach people for Him.  Unfortunately, most of us just aren’t very good about following instructions.  Titus 3: 1-2 says:

“1 Remind the people to be subject to rulers and authorities, to be obedient, to be ready to do whatever is good, 2 to slander no one, to be peaceable and considerate, and to show true humility toward all men.”

Each of these instructions contributes to the changing of the World.  They allow us to show Christ through our behavior.  The last one, true humility, is critical.  Humility means “1. Marked by meekness or modesty in behavior, attitude, or spirit; not arrogant or prideful. 2. Showing deferential or submissive respect.”  When we show true humility to others, it breaks down barriers.  When we show true humility people will see that we aren’t like everyone else and that will make them curious about why we are that way.  True humility will open doors to questions and discussions that we might not otherwise achieve through our normal behavior without Christ.

So take a step towards changing the World through true humility.
