Today we will be dealing with 20 bible verses about Role model.
Role models are those we look up to be it at our place of work, our churches, fellowship gatherings, in our environment and those we have direct or indirect contacts with. For christians our first and foremost role model is Jesus Christ. Our standards of living is Jesus Christ. We saw how He lived when He was alive, He preached and spread the word of God everywhere He went to. That was why the bible told us to be holy just like our Father in Heaven is holy.
As Christians we should beware of those around us. Not just anyone around is worth emulating, some might be a wolf in sheep’s clothing. That’s why we got the direction from God that we should flee from any appearances of evil.
Twenty bible verses have been collected about what we should look out for when choosing a role model and the attributes and qualities a role model should have so that we won’t be led astray.
