Be Different!

“‘. . . so that you may be sons of your Father who is in heaven; for He causes His sun to rise on the evil and the good, . . . .

 

. . . . and sends rain on the righteous and the unrighteous’” (Matthew 5:45).

 

God Himself is love, and the best evidence that we are His children through faith in Jesus Christ is our love for other believers.

 

“By this all men will know that you are My disciples, if you have love for one another” (John 13:35; cf. 1 John 4:20).

 

Our divine sonship is further evidenced when love leads us to pray for our opponents.

 

Even though the world often has a faulty understanding of what the gospel is, . . . .

 

. . . . it knows enough about Christ and His teachings to see that believers do not obey all His commands or live consistently as He lived.

People in the world who are the furthest from saving faith nevertheless often sense the divine power that underlies the loving and caring Christian life—

 

—simply because such a life that goes far enough to love enemies is so uncharacteristic of human nature.

 

In this way we show our family likeness, an increasing resemblance to our heavenly Father.

 

For example, God provides His general blessings on everyone, with no respect for merit or deserving; otherwise no one could receive them.

 

The psalmist writes, “The eyes of all look to You, and You give them their food in due time.

 

You open Your hand and satisfy the desire of every living thing” (Psalm. 145:15–16).

 

If God is so generous, we who claim to know Him ought to show similar love and impartial concern for everyone, even those who don’t like us.

Ask Yourself

 

Though God does possess qualities we can never attain as mortals, He has given us—by virtue of our adoption into His family—

 

—the privilege of looking more like Him in our attitudes and behaviors. Why is pursuing this so important?
