“Lord, Who May Abide In Your Tabernacle?”
Categories: Church of Christ Bulletin Articles
Psalm 15 gives a vivid picture of the person whose conduct grows out of fellowship with the living God. The question, “Lord, who may abide in Your tabernacle?” (Psalm 15:1) is answered with examples from everyday living:
“He who walks uprightly, and works righteousness, and speaks the truth in his heart” (Psalm 15:2).
The Psalmist goes on to describe honest relationships with neighbors and friends (Psalm 15:3-4), along with integrity in business and financial matters (Psalm 15:5).
The Psalmist ends with these words:
“He who does these things shall never be moved” (Psalm 15:5; cf. 2 Peter 1:5-10).
Brethren and friends, ethical living is more than just a concept. It is a powerful means of demonstrating the presence of the living Christ in our daily lives (Gal. 2:20; cf. Acts 10:38).
Doing what is right, is always right.
Even if we were billionaires, there would be no richer legacy that we could leave our children as rich as moral integrity.
