The term "behave" and its derivatives are often used to describe the conduct expected of believers, reflecting their relationship with God and others. Biblical behavior encompasses actions, attitudes, and speech that align with God's commandments and the example set by Jesus Christ.<br><br><b>Old Testament Context</b><br><br>In the Old Testament, behavior is closely linked to obedience to God's laws. The Israelites were given the Law through Moses, which outlined how they were to conduct themselves in various aspects of life. <a href="/deuteronomy/5-33.htm">Deuteronomy 5:33</a> instructs, "Walk in all the way that the LORD your God has commanded you, so that you may live and prosper and prolong your days in the land that you will possess." Here, proper behavior is associated with walking in God's ways, which leads to blessings and prosperity.<br><br>The wisdom literature, particularly the Book of Proverbs, provides practical guidance on behavior. <a href="/proverbs/20-11.htm">Proverbs 20:11</a> states, "Even a young man is known by his actions&#8212;whether his conduct is pure and upright." This highlights the importance of behavior as a reflection of one's character and integrity.<br><br><b>New Testament Context</b><br><br>In the New Testament, behavior is emphasized as a reflection of one's faith in Christ. Believers are called to live in a manner worthy of the Gospel. <a href="/philippians/1-27.htm">Philippians 1:27</a> exhorts, "Conduct yourselves in a manner worthy of the gospel of Christ." This call to godly behavior is rooted in the transformative power of the Holy Spirit, who enables believers to live according to God's will.<br><br>The Apostle Paul frequently addresses behavior in his epistles, urging believers to exhibit virtues such as love, humility, and patience. In <a href="/ephesians/4.htm">Ephesians 4:1-2</a> , Paul writes, "I urge you to walk in a manner worthy of the calling you have received, with all humility and gentleness, with patience, bearing with one another in love." Here, behavior is linked to the Christian calling and the unity of the body of Christ.<br><br><b>Behavior in the Church</b><br><br>Behavior within the Christian community is of paramount importance. The early church faced challenges related to conduct, and the apostles provided guidance to ensure that believers lived in harmony. In <a href="/1_timothy/3-15.htm">1 Timothy 3:15</a> , Paul writes, "If I am delayed, you will know how to conduct yourselves in the household of God, which is the church of the living God, the pillar and foundation of the truth." Proper behavior in the church is essential for maintaining its witness and upholding the truth of the Gospel.<br><br><b>Moral and Ethical Implications</b><br><br>The Bible presents a clear moral and ethical framework for behavior. The Ten Commandments (<a href="/exodus/20.htm">Exodus 20:1-17</a>) serve as a foundational guide for ethical conduct, emphasizing duties to God and fellow humans. Jesus further expounded on these principles, teaching that behavior should stem from a heart transformed by love for God and neighbor (<a href="/matthew/22-37.htm">Matthew 22:37-40</a>).<br><br>The Sermon on the Mount (Matthew 5-7) provides a comprehensive overview of the attitudes and behaviors expected of Christ's followers. Jesus calls for a higher standard of righteousness, one that surpasses mere external compliance and reflects inner purity and sincerity.<br><br><b>Conclusion</b><br><br>The biblical concept of behavior is integral to the life of a believer. It encompasses obedience to God's commands, the pursuit of holiness, and the demonstration of Christ-like love and humility. Through the power of the Holy Spirit, believers are equipped to live in a manner that honors God and serves as a testimony to the world.<a name="web" id="web"></a><div class="vheading2">Webster's Revised Unabridged Dictionary</div>1.
