A Godly Person

As we strive to be followers of Christ, we need to make sure that we're being Godly people. There are things that we need to make sure we are doing in order to stay Godly.
For instance, a Godly man or woman watches the company that they keep. 1 Cor. 15:33 tells us that evil company will corrupt our good habits. An unGodly man associates with things and people who are evil. If we're seeking to follow Christ, we need to make sure that we're hanging out with the right people.
Peter says in 1 Peter 2:9 that people can tell the Godly man from the rest of the world. - The Godly man or woman doesn't participate in the things that the world does (1 John 2:15-17). The worldly man participates in all the things that the world participates in - Gal 5:19-21 gives us a list of all those activities that the worldly man would be participating in. We have to stay away from these things.
Be a Godly person - each and everyday. Delight in God's law and seek Him daily. Don't become like the rest of the world.
