Pastor Larry Stephens delivers a message on the importance of Christ-like behavior. This is more than just behavior modification; it flows out of loving Christ.
1Ti 3:14  I hope to come to you soon, but I am writing these things to you so that, 1Ti 3:15  if I delay, you may know how one ought to behave in the household of God, which is the church of the living God, a pillar and buttress of the truth. 1Ti 3:16  Great indeed, we confess, is the mystery of godliness: He was manifested in the flesh, vindicated by the Spirit, seen by angels, proclaimed among the nations, believed on in the world, taken up in glory.
