Live peaceably with all Men 

 

If it be possible, as much as lieth in you, live peaceably with all men.Romans 12:18 

 

As a Christian your role model is Jesus. His life here on earth shows how He lived peacefully with everyone even at the point of His death; He prayed for His enemies that God shouldn't count it as a sin unto them for crucifying Him.

In Act 11:26 the Bible alludes  believers to ‘Christians’ that is Christ like. When the people at Antioch noticed the Christ like nature in the disciples, they were called Christians. 

Christ had placed a blueprint for you to follow in way you can relate with people in peace. In Romans 12:13-21 the Bible talks about charity and hospitality but it emphasized more of not paying back evil for evil. Romans 12:17 ‘Recompense to no man evil for evil. Provide things honest in the sight of all men.’

The scripture tells you to bless your enemy and that in so doing you’re indirectly putting coals of fire on His/Her head. Romans 12:20 ‘Therefore if thine enemy hunger, feed him; if he thirst, give him drink: for in so doing thou shalt heap coals of fire on his head.’

Dear reader, I know you have been blessed this morning. Live peacefully with everyone around you, be kind and show Godly love to everyone. Do not pay back evil for evil but rather pay them back with good deeds. God bless you.

 

Conclusion:

Live peacefully with all men. This is the blueprint Christ has placed for You and I to follow.
