We are called to be a godly people who think, feel, and act in harmony with the principles of heaven in all aspects of personal and social life. For the Spirit to recreate in us the character of our Lord we involve ourselves only in those things which will produce Christlike purity, health, and joy in our lives.
Christian behavior reflects the transformation that God works within us. This includes honesty, purity, self-control, kindness, and integrity in speech and action. Because our bodies are temples of the Holy Spirit, we seek to honor God through wholesome habits, including care for physical and mental health.
Our witness in the world depends not only on what we profess but on how we live. By avoiding practices that harm body or spirit and by embracing attitudes that reflect Christ, we show that the gospel changes every dimension of life. The goal is not legalism but a life that glorifies God and draws others to Him.
