Walking Worthily
1 Thessalonians 2:13; Colossians 1:10
There are three measures given in this form of the Christian’s walk: worthily of God Who calls us to His own kingdom and glory (1 Thess. 2:1212That ye would walk worthy of God, who hath called you unto his kingdom and glory. (1 Thessalonians 2:12)); worthily of the Lord unto all pleasing (Col. 1:1010That ye might walk worthy of the Lord unto all pleasing, being fruitful in every good work, and increasing in the knowledge of God; (Colossians 1:10)); and worthily of the calling wherewith we were called (that is, the Holy Spirit dwelling in the church, Eph. 2, developed as it is after the end of chap. 3).
