A Good Name

Romans 14:16-17

16 Let not then your good be evil spoken of:
17 For the kingdom of God is not meat and drink; but righteousness, and peace, and joy in the Holy Ghost

If you saw your preacher screaming and cursing at people would you ever listen to him again? If you saw your pastor walk up and start fighting people for no reason, you would be hesitant about going back to his church. If you saw you pastor cheating on his spouse, you would never look at him the same again. So, why is he any different than you? Yes he is called to preach, but all of us have to make sure that our names and lives are held to a high regard. If we do this, we do not have to worry about people running our name in the ground. This helps us when we preach, teach, and testify. So, learn to keep your name clean the best you can.
