Dr. Charles Stanley’s Life Principles To Live By!
Please contact us if you have questions or comments or want encouragement.
Some people live with principles, yet if those principles are not godly, there is no assurance that they will deliver you from the evil in this world. Charles Stanley has some excellent Life Principles that I encourage you to implement daily! If we do not follow the principles of living right in our life, we would not have a rudder to be steered, which would most likely turn into a situation where whatever feels good a person would be inclined to do.
The type of knee-jerk style of living will not get you where you want to be but, instead, get you into situations that would be detrimental and ultimately sinful. God’s word is not meant to be a killjoy, but rather God knows our sinful nature and tendency to sin, so He gave us the Good Book (The Bible to help us, not to harm us). ~ Bill Greguska
2 Timothy 2:5 Similarly, anyone who competes as an athlete does not receive the victor’s crown except by competing according to the rules.

Pastor Charles Stanley Teaches About Life Principles!
Living A Good Life By Living With Godly Principles
I have not always lived my life with these life principles by Pastor Charles Stanley. When I became a Christian in 1986, I started applying these principles to my life. After doing so, I noticed that my problems were put into perspective, and they began to get dealt with. I am not saying that accepting Jesus in your life or mine erases all my problems, but what I can tell you is that those same problems will be able to take care of by God, for He says, in 1 Peter 5:7 Cast all your anxiety on him because he cares for you.
When we practice living with Godly principles, we will notice the difference in ourselves. ~ Bill Greguska

Put to death, therefore, what is earthly in you: sexual immorality, impurity, passion, evil desire, and covetousness, which is idolatry.
Galatians 5:19-21 ESV
Now the works of the flesh are evident: sexual immorality, impurity, sensuality, idolatry, sorcery, enmity, strife, jealousy, fits of anger, rivalries, dissensions, divisions, envy, drunkenness, orgies, and things like these. I warn you, as I warned you before, that those who do such things will not inherit the kingdom of God.
Galatians 5:22-23 ESV
