You Will Never Regret Doing the Right Thing

You Will Never Regret Doing the Right Thing

Philippians 4:8-9

8 Finally, brothers, whatever is true, whatever is honorable, whatever is just, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is commendable, if there is any excellence, if there is anything worthy of praise, think (take into account) about these things. 9 What you have learned and received and heard and seen in me—practice these things, and the God of peace will be with you.”


We must first ask ourselves this question. What is Right? The only conclusion I can come to is the Bible. All of us need to read more, study more, and meditate more on the Scriptures. This is what the New Bible Commentary had to say about these two verses:

It is sometimes said that the qualities of character mentioned here are not distinctively Christian but such as have been honored in many cultures and societies. That may be so, but the Christian has a special obligation to demonstrate them and has the enabling of the (Holy) Spirit to do so.
