Discussion:

-Today I brought some different pieces of brand name clothing.
-Hold up a brand name. Who likes Southpole clothes? Who do you know this is Southpole? (Do the same with a few others)
-Hold up a plain shirt and try to convince the kids it is some name brand when it isn't.
-How do you know I am lying to you?
-Brand name clothing a Christians are a lot alike.
-You can tell by looking at a shirt what brand it is.
-If someone is an authentic Christian you can tell by watching their actions.
-Being a true Christian is all about actions.
-Give me some examples of true Christian actions.


Conclusion:
If we are going to say that we have decided to live for Jesus, then our actions must show the same thing. We need to be an example of God's love. If we are filled with God's love then we can: serve others, be kind to others, forgive others, use self-control, and respect others.
