"SHOW AND TELL"

        "I have given you an example, that you should do as I have done to you"
                                                John 13 : 15


If you take a course on writing or attend a writer's conference, you'll likely hear the phrase, "show, don't tell." In other words . "Show" yours readers what is happening don't just tell them. Don't tell readers what you did: describe doing it.
       One of the reasons we tend to tell rather than show is that it's easier and faster showing how to do something requires time and effort. In teaching it's to tell the students what's wrong with what they did than to show them to do it right. The latter however, is more effective
       For thousands of years, the Jewish people had only the law telling them what to do and not to do
       But then came Jesus Christ, who showed them how to live the life God had been telling them about all along. Jesus didn't just say,  Be humber" he " humbled Himself (phil. 2:8) He didn't just say "forgaves us ( col 3:13 He didnt just say Love God and your neighbors"
       He demonstrate love his love by His acction how great God's  love and your neighbhors He 
Demonstrated love  by His action (John 15: 12)
       Christ's perfect example of love shows how great God's love is for us and how we are to show His love to others
