A Christian?
Is it ... His Living?
His Giving?

His Forgiving?

According to the Bible,
It’s his ... faith

What makes a man ...
A Good Man?
A Good Christian?
According to the Bible,
A Good Christian is ...
Someone who ... allows his faith to permeate
his every day life
Who does ... the things a good man does
But who does them ... for Jesus
What are you doing?
What does your husband, your wife, your church expect?
What does God expect?

God expects that Christians would ... live
In Matthew 5:20, he warns his disciples ...
God expects that Christians would ... give
He promises a reward to those who do.
But in Matthew 6:2-4 he warns ...
God expects that Christians would ... forgive
He promises a reward to those who do.

Most people think a ‘hypocrite’ is someone who says one thing and does another. We all do that. According to the Bible, the difference between a true Christian and a hypocrite isn’t what he does, but why he does it.
A hypocrite does it ... for himself
A Christian does it ... for Jesus
Are you a Christian?
Matthew 7.21
Do you love him?
Do you know him?
