Are we leading others astray by the lives we are living?

Too many of us claim to know God, but our hearts are far from him. But, know that God is not mocked, know that there is nothing hidden from God. When we proclaim to be God’s messengers, we should be delivering good news, we should be walking boldly, blamelessly; our conduct, our character and our conversations should always be acceptable before God. If we are saying one thing and doing another, there are those who will believe that what we are doing must be right, and will follow us, and therefore lose their way. Be careful of the life that you live, if you proclaim to be a messenger of God. It is an awful thing to fall into the hand of God. He assures us, that, “If anyone causes one of these little ones, those who believe in me to stumble, it would be better for them to have a large millstone hung around their neck and to be drowned in the depths of the sea.”
