The Code

The Code

Most of you know that one of my addictions is books. I love to read and most of the material that I use for my Freedom Fighter entries come from the books that I am reading.

As a reader, one of my blessings is to preview new books that I can recommend to others to use in their studies. The other day I received a catalog of new books and I read a review of a new book being released in England. Right in the description was a neat outline suggested by the author, for men to think through as they walk with the Lord. I thought it would be worth sharing with you. Carl Beech calls it THE CODE:

1. Jesus is my Captain, Brother, Rescuer, and Friend.
2. I owe everything to Him. I will do anything for Him.
3. I will unashamedly make Him known through my actions and words.
4. I will not cheat in anything, personal, or professional.
5. I will look away from the gutter, but be prepared to pull people out of it.
6. I will keep my body and mind fit and free from any addictions.
7. I will put the welfare of those closest to me before my own welfare.
8. I will treat all men and women as brothers and sisters.
9. I will lead as He would lead. I will honor my leaders provided this also honors Him. I will follow Him in company with my sisters and brothers.
10. I will use my strength to protect the weak and stand against the abuse of power.
11. I will protect the world that God has made.
12. If I fail I will not give up. He never gives up on me.
