Another Day, Another Bible Verse, Another Post

“Rejoicing in hope; patient in tribulation; continuing instant in prayer;” Romans 12:12.

Another verse that has very little meaning to me without context.

So the heading for this section of the chapter in my Bible says “Behave Like a Christian.” I don’t think it could be stated any plainer than that.


Anyway, the section is pretty good and just talks about how Christians should live. It’s kinda like a Christians Best Practices Guide for Dummies.

The surrounding verses mention things like (but not limited to): 

  • loving without hypocrisy
  • working diligently 
  • blessing and not cursing people
  • taking care of other people
  • being sympathetic to the hurting
  • don't be a know-it-all
It's a pretty solid list of things that make the world a nicer place to live in. 

Well, that's all for today, folks!
