答:(1)既然蒙召,行事为人就当与蒙召的恩相称,与基督的福音相称,与悔改的心相称(参弗4:1;腓1:27;徒26:20);(2)无论作什么,都要为荣耀上帝而行(林前10:31)。行事为人要对得起主,凡事蒙他喜悦,在一切善事上结果子,渐渐地多知道他(参西1:10)。那召我们的既是圣洁的,我们在一切所行的事上也要圣洁(参彼前1:15);(3)从前是暗昧的,如今在主里面是光明的,行事为人就当像光明的子女(参弗5:8)。要行事端正,脱去暗昧的行为,好像行在白昼(参林后13:7;罗13:12-13)。
100. How should a Christian behave?
a. Since he has been called by God, his behavior should be in accord with his calling, with the gospel of Christ, and with a penitent heart (cf Ephesians 4, 1; Philippians 1, 27; Acts 26, 20).
b. Whatever you do , do it to the glory of God (1 Corinthians 10, 31). Lead a life worthy of the Lord, fully pleasing to him. Bearing fruit in every good work, and increasing in your knowledge of him (cf Colossians 1, 10). He who called us is holy, so we must be holy in all our conduct (cf 1 Peter 1, 15).
c. We at one time were in darkness, but now we are in the light as the Lord’s people, so we are to live as children of the light (cf Ephesians 5, 8). We are to act honestly, rejcting the deeds of darkness as those who walk in the day. (cf 2 Corinthians 13, 7; Romans 13, 12).
