DOBLE KARA(IMAGE AND INTEGRITY)
FEBRUARY 1, 2014MARIKINA FOURSQUARE GOSPEL CHURCH
IMAGE IS PLEASING PEOPLE & SELFwhileINTEGRITY IS PLEASING GOD
APOSTLE PAULActs 21:15-25
1) For the sake of the weak, image must be preserved2) To defend faith in God’s truth, image is secondary
Paul’s image:- a plague- a creator of dissension- a ringleader of Nazarene sect- he tried allegedly to profane the temple
Paul’s actions proved his integrity:vs. 12 - I am never found disputing with anyone or inciting the crowdvs. 14 - Confessed: I worshipped theGod of my fathers, BELIEVING ALLTHINGS WHICH ARE WRITTEN INTHE LAW AND IN THE PROPHETSvs.16 - I myself always strive to havea conscience without offensetoward God and man Vs. 20 - challenged those involvedto make chargeVs. 26 - did not give bribe for his freedom
IMAGE MAY COME OUT OF INTEGRITY butINTEGRITY DOES NOT ALWAYS COME FROM IMAGE
INTEGRITY INVOLVES EVERYTHING ABOUT THE WHOLENESS OF OUR INNER PERSON--OUR HEART, MIND, WILL.
INTEGRITY is SINGLENESS OF PURPOSE
In the image of God..we were created! Christ in us! The image inside should be what reflects outside.NO ‘DOBLE KARA’.
INTEGRITYis wholeness and completeness (intact, not divided), no hidden agenda, nothing!
SELECTIVE INTEGRITYJUDGMENTAL INTEGRITYCONSENSUAL INTEGRITY
Examine yourself. What do you see inside? Is it what people see outside?
