Dec 24 | Do What is Right

DATE: December 24, 2023
THEME: Do What is Right
SCRIPTURE: Acts 16:16-40 (v.35-40)

Paul and Silas demanded justice and they got it…because it was right. They suffered injustice at the hands of wicked men and it wasn’t right. Paul gives us a picture of our calling…do what is right now matter if others are doing what’s wrong. It’s better to suffer for doing what is good than for doing that which is evil. We get our authority to live and love from the authority of Christ Jesus our Lord and Saviour, not from other lesser authorities. This is one of the reasons for the incarnation & virgin birth of Jesus, “the government will be upon His shoulders...of the greatness of his government and peace there will be no end” (Isaiah 9:2-7).
