The Responsible Christian

For some people, the word Responsible or Responsibility are scary words.  It means they have to work hard to be responsible.   Yes that's true.  That is how we produce acceptable behavior.    But haven't you noticed that acceptable behavior has its own set of rewards.   That being said, why all the big fuss about trying to be responsible or demonstrating responsibility?   What's up with that?   Let's not act like a fool and do foolish things.   The bible explains how a responsible Christian behaves and how they should accept responsibility. 

The bible talks about responsibility and our attentiveness to the need toward responsibility.     By being responsible, we behave as better Christians.    Responsible means doing the right things.  It is easy to do the wrong things, because it is natural to be lazy.   The effort toward responsibility requires not being lazy and being responsible toward other people.    This in many ways follows how disciples operate or are designed to operate.  When we walk with the Lord, we have a better understanding of what being responsible means.    Let's take a look at seven scriptures.  We will look at them one by one.
