Summary

Certain things in the world have this power or ability to affect how we live and act. One thing I’ve noticed that has incredibly power over us, to affect and control our lives, is our fears. Fear has power over us. Fear stems from an internal belief, whether right or wrong, and it affects our actions. But have you ever allowed the wrong thing to affect you in a wrong way? Ever believed something was a certain way and you acted based on that only to find that you were mistaken? . . . Whether it be our fears, or other areas of our lives, our internal beliefs affect our external behaviors. ‌‌ The same is true with our spiritual lives. The beliefs we have about God, our lives, and the world affect our external behavior. What we believe about who we are, who God is, and what he expects of us will shape the entire direction of our lives. If we believe the right way, according to the Bible, we will pursue honoring God with our lives. But if we believe the wrong way, or have misunderstandings about God and our relationship with him, this will lead us away from a Christ-honoring way of living. What we believe is important. To the degree we understand doctrine, and understand it rightly will be the degree we live rightly. And as we come to Titus, and look at doctrine and devotion, Paul wants us to take away one key truth with us today: Internal beliefs affect external behavior

Episode Description

But have you ever allowed the wrong thing to affect you in a wrong way? Ever believed something was a certain way and you acted based on that only to find that you were mistaken? . . . Whether it be our fears, or other areas of our lives, our internal beliefs affect our external behaviors. ‌‌

The same is true with our spiritual lives. The beliefs we have about God, our lives, and the world affect our external behavior. What we believe about who we are, who God is, and what he expects of us will shape the entire direction of our lives. If we believe the right way, according to the Bible, we will pursue honoring God with our lives. But if we believe the wrong way, or have misunderstandings about God and our relationship with him, this will lead us away from a Christ-honoring way of living. What we believe is important. To the degree we understand doctrine, and understand it rightly will be the degree we live rightly.

And as we come to Titus, and look at doctrine and devotion, Paul wants us to take away one key truth with us today: Internal beliefs affect external behavior
