Faith & Reason Nexus

• Be Saved
• Acts 2:40: “And with many other words he testified and exhorted them, saying, ‘Be saved from this perverse generation.’”
• Evaluate
• Romans 12:3: “For I say, through the grace given to me, to everyone who is among you, not to think of himself more highly than he ought to think, but to think soberly, as God has dealt to each one a measure of faith.”
• Deny
• Matthew 16:24: “Then Jesus said to His disciples, ‘If anyone desires to come after Me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross, and follow Me.’”
• Not to Exalt
• Luke 18:10-14: Parable of the Pharisee and the Tax Collector, illustrating humility before God.
• Control
• 1 Corinthians 9:27: “But I discipline my body and bring it into subjection, lest, when I have preached to others, I myself should become disqualified.”
• Keep Pure
• James 1:27: “Pure and undefiled religion before God and the Father is this: to visit orphans and widows in their trouble, and to keep oneself unspotted from the world.”

These points emphasize personal responsibility in faith, humility, self-discipline, and maintaining purity in thoughts and actions.
