JESUS -- Our excample

In 1 John 2:6 we read.... "He that saith he abideth in him, ought himself also to walk, even as he walked." Jesus gave us a very example to live by. If we take a good look at how He walked, we will see clearly how He wants and expects us to walk.



  • Jesus was perfect ( Matthew 5: 48 )


  • Jesus was humble ( Philippians 2:8, Acts 8:32-33, Psalm 113:6 )


  • Jesus kept His Father's commandments ( Matthew 15: 10 )


  • In Him was no sin or guile ( 1 John 3:5, 1Peter 2:22 )


  • Jesus was a servant ( Matthew 12:18, Philippians 2:7 )


  • Jesus was Holy ( 1 Peter 1:16 )


  • Jesus had no respect of persons ( Romans 2:11, 1 Peter 1:17, Colossians 3: 25 )


  • Jesus was just ( Isaiah 45:21, Acts 3:14, Acts 7:52, Romans 7:12 )


  • Jesus was meek and lowly (1 Peter 2:19-21 & 23, Matthew 11:29 )


  • Jesus did not fight back at His accusers ( 1 Peter 2: 19-21& 23, John 18: 10-11)


  • Jesus did not do His own thing here on Earth, but the work of His Farther who sent Him ( John 4:34, John 9:4, John 17: 4 )


  • Jesus loved the little children ( Matthew 18:1-6 )


  • Jesus had a heart for the maimed, the lame, the blind, the lost, the sick, the leppers, the poor, and the desolate ( Matthew 15:24, Luke 19:10, Matthew 11:5, Matthew 15:30-31, Luke 14:13-14, Luke 14:21, Mark 7: 32-33, Matthew 21:14, Luke 7:22 )


Jesus is our most perfect example.



So may all of us that say, "we abide in Him", may we also, " walk even as He walked."



In Him, Mae
