Fully trusted

"... but to show that they can be fully trusted, so that in every way they will make the teaching about God our Savior attractive." - Titus 2:10

Over the years I have taken my vehicles down the street to Frank's garage whenever they needed repair. I also buy gas from Frank, even though his price is a little higher than other stations. Why in the world would I do such a thing you might ask? It's simple; Frank is friendly, honest and he does good work. He never replaces anything on my vehicle that doesn't  need replacing. I am attracted to Frank's garage because he can be fully trusted.

The church grows when believers are genuine. Paul knew that being the real thing had to be seen in the work place as well as the worship center. The message of Christ is exciting, joyful and hopeful; it's full of promise in every way. But if the world can't see it working in the believer's life, they will never be attracted to Christ. They need to see that God's people are genuine and can be fully trusted.

You are being watched my brother and sister in Christ. When you think your employer and fellow employees, to whom you have witnessed, have turned a deaf ear, they are watching you. They are looking for the real thing and if they find that you are genuine in your daily conduct, they will be attracted to Christ, because you can be fully trusted.
