The Passed Thru Fire Attributes

The Passed Thru Fire Experience has been built around 6 Attributes which we ascribe to a Godly man... these are...

Courage:

Courage to Live the Christian Life is an important part of Manhood

Biblical Basis: 1 Corinthians 16:13

“Courage is essential for a Christian man. Courage means that you will be brave enough to stand alone for what is right even if it means you will lose all your friends and face ridicule. It means being able to speak the truth without fear. It means being willing to put yourself in harm’s way, both physically and emotionally, for the sake of God. Are you willing to be a man of courage?”


Righteousness:

Righteousness is about a Godly Man having a right standing with God because of Jesus’ Blood shed for him.

Biblical Basis: Romans 3:20-22; 5:17; 2 Corinthians 5:21; Galatians 2:16

“The cornerstone of manhood is a real and personal relationship with God. Being a man of righteousness—in right standing with God and man—is the most important part of being a man.
This is something that is not just a one-time decision. You must renew your relationship with God daily and keep clean accounts with your fellow man. Are you, , willing to be a man who loves God with all your heart and will love your neighbor as you love yourself?”


Obedience:

Obedience to God and to those whom he has put in authority is a fundamental duty of Godly Manhood

Biblical Basis: Jeremiah 7:23; Luke 7:1-10; Acts 5:25-29; Romans 13:1-7

“Real men understand authority. We know that we must have God as our final authority.
We know that God has given us wise leaders, and it is our duty to listen to them and, as long as they stay in line with God’s teaching, to obey what they ask. For a short time more, one of the primary vehicles of God’s authority in your life will be your parents, but once you leave home you must still submit to godly authority. Are you willing to bow your will and obey those whom God has given to guide and protect you?”


Integrity:

Integrity because a Real Man lives a life of Honesty, Trustworthiness and Integrity

Biblical Basis: Psalm 15:1-5; Proverbs 12:22; 22:1; Daniel 1:1-17; Matthew 5:37

“Christ calls us to ‘men of our word.’ What comes out of our mouths should be true, our commitments and promises unshakable. We are called to be honest in all that we do and say. Cheating, deception or lying are not the traits of a man of God. Are you, , willing to be a man of integrity?”


Self Control:

Self-control is an essential mark of godly manhood

Biblical Basis: Genesis 39:7-20; Joshua 6:17-19; 7:1, 20-21; 2 Samuel 11:2-5; Proverbs 25:28

“A mark of a real man is self-control. Each man has desires, lusts, appetites and emotions that pull hard at him from time to time. A Christian man says no to those desires if they are the wrong things for the moment. He disciplines his mind and body to do what is right, even if he feels like doing something else. In particular, a man of God must control his sexual desires and actions, he must say no to his flesh. Are you willing to be a man who is self-controlled in both your physical actions and in your emotions?”


Care for the Weak:

Care for the Weak because a Real Man assumes the Obligation to care for and protect the weak and unfortunate.

Biblical Basis: Matthew 25:31-46; 1 John 3:17-18

“The world is full of people whom life seems to have left behind. Some of them are poor, some are unattractive and some just don’t fit in. It is the calling of a Christian man to care for, protect and show love to these people. It will be your job to stand up for the ill fitting person who is being ridiculed by others. It will be your job to protect those who cannot defend themselves. Are you willing to be a man who will love the unlovely and protect the weak?”
