[size=20pt][font=Times New Roman]Character Qualities[/font][/size][font=Georgia][size=9pt]The Greek word for [i]character[/i] is [i]charakter[/i]. It is translated in Scripture as the “express image.” According to [i]The Complete Word Study Dictionary New Testament[/i], the word “originally denoted an engraver or engraving tool. Later it meant the impression itself, ususally something engraven, cut in, or stamped, a character, letter, mark, [or] sign. This impression with its particular features was considered as the exact representation of the object whose image it bore.” In Hebrews 1:3, Christ is referred to as the “express image” of God; He fully expressed the character of God through His life.[/size][/font]
[font=Georgia][size=9pt]One of God’s primary goals for believers is to transform them into the image of His Son so that they may be a reflection of the character of Christ. We can take comfort in this purpose when we experience difficulties because “We know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose” [/size][/font][font=Georgia][size=8pt](Romans 8:28)[/size][/font][font=Georgia][size=9pt].[/size][/font]
