© John Mallison 37.1 “Be imitators of me, as I am of Christ”- 1 Cor. 11:1 “Join in imitating me and mark those who so live as you have an example in us”- Phil. 3:17 “What you have learned and received and heard and seen in me, do.” - Phil. 4:9

© John Mallison 37.2 You should do good deeds to be an example in every way for young men. When you teach, be honest and serious. And when you speak, speak the truth so that you cannot be criticized. Then anyone who is against you will be ashamed because there is nothing bad that he can say against us. Titus 2:7,8

© John Mallison 37.3 “Consider your own call, brothers and sisters: -not many of you were wise by human standards, -not many were powerful, -not many were of noble birth. But God chose -what is foolish in the world to shame the wise; -what is weak in the world to shame the strong; -what is low and despised in the world -things that are not, to reduce to nothing things that are, so that no one might boast in the presence of God.” (1 Cor 1:26-29)

© John Mallison 37.4 ‘Are you tired? Worn out? Burned out on religion? Come to me! Get away with me and you’ll recover your life. I’ll show you how to take a real rest. Walk with me and work with me - watch how I do it. Learn the unforced rhythms of grace. I won’t lay anything heavy or ill-fitting on you. Keep company with me and you will learn to live freely and lightly.’ Matthew 11:28 (The Message)

© John Mallison 37.6 ‘We announce the message about Christ and we use all our wisdom to warn and teach everyone so that all of Christ’s followers may become mature That’s why I work so hard and use the mighty power he gives me.’ Col 1:28,29 (CEV)

© John Mallison 37.7 ‘There are different gifts and functions; individually grace is given to us in different ways...’ ‘His gifts were varied... His gifts were made that Christians might be properly equipped for their service, that the whole body might be built up until... we arrive at real maturity, - that measure of development which is meant by ‘the fulness of Christ.’ Ephesians 4: 7, 11-13

© John Mallison 37.8 ‘ Two Are Better Than One, because they have a good reward for their toil. For if they fall, one will lift up the other; but woe to one who is alone and falls and does not have another to help.’ Ecclesiastes 4:9-10
