    Everything has what we consider to be identifying marks or characteristics--things that make them distinguishable from other things. In the same manner, the child of God should exhibit traits that set them apart from the world.

    CHARACTERISTICS THAT DISTINGUISH THE CHRISTIAN Text: I John 3: 1-2 Intro: The characteristics of a thing help us not only recognize it, but also to define it. This is especially true with people. Our physical characteristics as well as our individual personality define who we are. There ...read more
