Things Christians Need To Be Doing

According to the bible here are: 

199 – Things Christians Need to Be Doing!

The following is a listing with a scripture reference as to things the Bible states Christians need to be busy at.  When we keep these in mind we would be active in pleasing God.  This activating that could be termed: ‘A worker for God that is not ashamed’. 

Still, our aim needs to be not just ‘a doing’ but actively ‘loving of our God’ with our whole heart, mind and soul.  We consider the fruit of the spirit is it is a demonstration of our heart’s condition.  How does that measure up?

2 Timothy 2:15 –         Be diligent to present yourself approved to God as a workman who does not need to be ashamed, accurately handling the word of truth.

Matthew 22:37 – “You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind.”
