IT’S YOUR “STAGE”

IT’S YOUR “STAGE”
(Proverbs 29:27)
An unjust man is an abomination to the just: and he that is upright in the way is abomination to the wicked.”
All that are unsanctified have a like rooted antipathy to godliness and godly people: He that is upright in the way, that makes conscience of what he says and does, is an abomination to the wicked, whose wickedness is restrained perhaps and suppressed, or, at least, shamed and condemned, by the uprightness of the upright.” (The Bible Collection, Henry Complete, Matthew Henry) We were called the saints, sanctified or the upright. But it’s so unfortunate that some so called Christians are not living the Christian life accordingly. A friend of mine once said; “They’re not upright, Ely” He was referring to the group of cults. We have here a simple guidelines or a simple acronym for us to start our way up to our S-T-A-G-E, it is our stage to growth and maturity.
S- START RIGHT with God and His Word.
T- TALK RIGHT with God and with your fellowmen
A- AIM RIGHT for God, for your family and your ministry.
G- GET RIGHT with God and with men.
E- ESTABLISH RIGHT relationship by being relational.
(Proverbs 29:7) “The righteous considereth the cause of the poor: but the wicked regardeth not to know it.
