Love is possibly one of the most overused words in our language each day. We use the same word in the phrase “I love cheeseburgers” with the same word we say “I love you” to a person. Episode 22 will discuss love as one of the 7 Ironclad Christian Characteristics. Let us first begin by understanding that the Bible is written in two languages, Hebrew and Greek. Love usage in these two languages varies and has multiple words for the one word we use each day.

The Bible is clear that our lives should be characterized by the spirit giving fruit of love. If we are going to reach the world and tell them about who Jesus Christ is, we must let the lost see this spirit in us. Paul, the apostle, usually dictated to someone to write his letters, and 1 Corinthians 13 is written in a much different rhythm. Let us look at 1 Corinthians 13 to understand better how we are to love as Christians.

The scripture reference for this podcast will be 1 Corinthians 13:1-3, Galatians 5:22, John 15:13, Matthew 17:20, Matthew 12:41-44

Humility is defined as having freedom from pride and arrogance. Humbleness is one of the hardest Christian characteristics for some believers to work with. At times we all find ourselves wanting to be humble, but we cannot let go of something that we have pride in. Episode 21 will discuss humility as one of the 7 Ironclad Christian Characteristics. We will do so by studying 2nd Corinthians chapter 12, and the writings of Paul. It is worth stating that the more humble you are the more powerful you are. We see this not only in Paul but more importantly in Christ. Jesus was a humble sacrifice that gives us all eternal life.

This chapter of Corinthians may seem like the lowest point of Paul’s ministry. If we take a closer look we can see that Paul is giving all believers an example of Humility. Humility is one of the hardest for many believers to recognize in themselves. The acts of submission that Paul encounters may be similar to what you are encountering each day in your life right now. Because of this, humility is also one of the hardest traits for us to recognize that we need as we bear our cross each day.

The scripture reference for this podcast will be 2 Corinthians 12: John 16:33, John 1:14, James 4:6

Faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen. The writer of Hebrews gave all believers a glimpse of what faith was meant to be to all believers. Faith is what gets us through each day but also plays a part in our eternity.

Episode 19 will be the beginning of a seven-part series where the podcast will be focused on the characteristics that Christians should shine as a light to the world. These are “ironclad” because they should make all believers in Christ so firm or secure as to be unbreakable. I hope that each podcast in this series will strengthen your daily walk with Christ and help you to be focused on him.

The scripture reference for this podcast will be Hebrews 11:1, Ephesians 2:8, Galatians 3:24, Isaiah 64:6, Hebrews 11:8, Romans 1:17.
