1Likewise, wives, be subject to your own husbands, so that even if some do not obey the word, they may be won without a word by the conduct of their wives. - 1 Peter 3:1
The above verse is given in the context of marriage but the lesson therein is not limited to marriage alone. It talks about wives winning their husband over to God's kingdom with their conduct.
These days, one of the most potent evangelism tools is our behavior. So many people have drawn people away from Christ because of their behavior. The world might not read the Bible you read but you are the Bible they can read and see. The way we behave and conduct ourselves matters a lot As people are watching us.
An abusive Christian will find it difficult to witness Jesus to his/her neighbors because of his/her conduct. A well behaved believer will warm his/her way into the heart of the unbelievers around him/her.
As Peter advised the wives that through their conduct, their unsaved husband can be saved, likewise to you too, your unsaved friends, relatives, colleagues, even foes can be saved through your good conduct to them. Jesus said our light should shine before men so that when they see your good works, God will be glorified.
The way you conduct yourself can draw or scare unsaved people away from God. Be wise and save souls with your conduct.
It's another beautiful day, the second day of glorious month. I pray that this month shall be your month of enlargement and it shall be well with you.
Good Morning and have a good day!
