Imagery –
Romans 13:13-14
Vs 13 – Paul
once again uses the imagery of light and darkness. Light represents good
and darkness
for evil. Paul then lists some the
things that God views as evil. Sexual
sins,
drunkenness,
bad living, broken relationships, strife and divisions. Those who walk in
the light do
things that are open and transparence.
Evil people cause jealousy and
divisions
wherever they go.
Vs 14 – Paul
closes this chapter with exhorting his readers to cloth themselves with the
Lord Jesus Christ. Make sure you have your amour, prayer life,
bible reading,
attendance to
God’s house and testimony bring honor praise and glory to the Lord. Do
not think how
you can gratify the flesh. Thinking
about doing something is the first step
on a long
road of being close to God. As you think
so does your life. Paul is warning
about
unrighteous living and exhorting his ready to love Godly love for the praise
and
glory of God.
