What is Character

  • Character: Qualities which make a person different from another.
  • Character can also refer to qualities or traits that define an individual’s moral and ethical nature, such as honesty, integrity, bravery, kindness and so on.

Why do we need Christ-like characters?

  1. Character reveals one’s identity (Matthew 7:16–18)
  2. Character reflects one’s ownership (Ephesians 4:1–21)
  3. Character denotes one’s reputation (Job 1:8)

How to develop Christ-like characters

    1. Through Training (Matthew 11:29 & 1st Timothy 4:6–8; Ephesians 4:22–24; Romans 12:2)
    • Transformation through the renewing of the mind is essential for developing a Christ-like character, and this comes through training in the word, and yielding to the Spirit.
