Practice of Godliness

A Christ follower seeks wisdom, pursues holiness, and practices godliness to work out his or her salvation.  Other posts have discussed seeking wisdom and pursuing holiness, while this post discusses godliness.

What is Godliness?

In his book, The Practice of Godliness, Jerry Bridges lays out the foundation needed for godliness.

Quote from page 55: "This is godliness: God-centeredness, or devotion to God; and Godlikeness, or Christian character.  The practice of godliness is both the practice of devotion to God and the practice of a lifestyle that is pleasing to God and reflects His character to other people."

No higher compliment can be paid to a Christ follower than to call him a godly person.
