Topic: Who Is Your Role Model?
Text: 2 Corinthians 10:7-12

[7]Do ye look on things after the outward appearance? If any man trust to himself that he is Christ's, let him of himself think this again, that, as he is Christ's, even so are we Christ's.

[8]For though I should boast somewhat more of our authority, which the Lord hath given us for edification, and not for your destruction, I should not be ashamed:

[9]That I may not seem as if I would terrify you by letters.

[10]For his letters, say they, are weighty and powerful; but his bodily presence is weak, and his speech contemptible.

[11]Let such an one think this, that, such as we are in word by letters when we are absent, such will we be also in deed when we are present.

[12]For we dare not make ourselves of the number, or compare ourselves with some that commend themselves: but they measuring themselves by themselves, and comparing themselves among themselves, are not wise.

MEMORISE: We do not dare to classify or compare ourselves with some who commend themselves. When they measure themselves by themselves and compare themselves with themselves, they are not wise. (2 Corintians 10:12).

EXPOSITION

Imitation is trying to be like someone, possibly because of one's admiration of such personality and the way of life. Many use others as their role models or yardsticks for doing virtually everything they do, and this greatly influences such people's lives, sometimes negatively.
