Actions Speak Louder.....

Than Words.  We've all heard this thousands of times.  We get into relationships and we say "I love you" but does the actions go with the words.  We easily say that someone is our BFF, but does your actions show that to be true.  And the saints love to say "I'm saved, sanctified, and set free" but does our lifestyle reflect that.  Matt. 8:4 Jesus healed the leper and told him not to say a word, but present your healed body to the priest.  James 2:14-26 is the faith in action scriptures, if we see someone hungry and don't give them food, how have we helped them.  And 1 Timothy 4:11-12 (New International Version, ©2010) reads>

 11 Command and teach these things. 12 Don’t let anyone look down on you because you are young, but set an example for the believers in speech, in conduct, in love, in faith and in purity.  We are to set an example with our lifestyle, not with our mouth only.  So yes I agree Actions Speak Louder Than Words, someone can tell you they love you all day long, but if they are treating you wrong by cursing you, putting their hands on you, and can't be true to you, that's not love.  If you are in a relationship and have decided that you want to do what the bible says and present your body pure to God and they don't understand and walk away, tell them good-bye.  They aren't good enough for you anyways, because they can't respect the God in you, you deserve better.  Good friends don't mind telling the truth, so if you aren't telling your BFF they are wrong for something, you need to evaluate weather you are indeed a good friend.  Now saved, sanctified, and set free Saints, walk the walk so the world can see Jesus in you.  God Bless.
