Jesus took
into consideration the limitations of his disciples. He did not demand of them
more than they were capable of giving. (John 16:12) Without pressuring them,
Jesus encouraged his followers to ‘exert themselves vigorously’ in doing God’s
will. (Luke 13:24) He did this by taking the lead and by appealing to their
hearts. Jesus did not abuse the authority entrusted to him by controlling
people’s lives. He neither set unreachable standards nor laid down countless
rules. His approach was to motivate others by reaching their hearts with the
principles behind the laws given through Moses. (Matt. 5:27, 28) In
imitation of Jesus Christ, the elders refrain from making arbitrary rules or
insisting on their personal viewpoints. Rather, they try to reach hearts by
using godly principles, such as those outlined at Micah 6:8; 1 Corinthians

1 Peter 3:8-15 8 Finally,
all of you should agree and have concern and love for each other. You should
also be kind and humble. 9 Don't be hateful
and insult people just because they are hateful and insult you. Instead,
treat everyone with kindness. You are God's chosen ones, and he will bless
you. The Scriptures say, 10 "Do
you really love life? Do you want to be happy? Then stop saying cruel things
and quit telling lies. 11 Give
up your evil ways and do right, as you find and follow the road that leads to
peace. 12 The Lord
watches over everyone who obeys him, and he listens to their prayers. But he
opposes everyone who does evil." 13 Can anyone really harm you for being eager to do
good deeds? 14 Even
if you have to suffer for doing good things, God will bless you. So stop
being afraid and don't worry about what people might do. 15 Honor Christ and let him be the Lord of your life.
Always be ready to give an answer when someone asks you about your hope. but sanctify Christ as Lord in your hearts, always being ready to make a defense to everyone who asks you to give
an account for the hope that is in
you, yet with gentleness and reverence; |

Does
adhering to the principle that is found in today’s text require that you shun
unbelievers entirely? The Scriptural answer to that question is no. After all,
the apostle Paul himself showed loving consideration for “people of all sorts,”
including unbelievers. (1 Cor. 9:22) The very nature of Christianity
demands that we show an interest in others—including those who do not share our
beliefs. (
