My Thoughts on the Rebelution

The Rebelution is a teenage rebellion against the low expectation that this culture has for teenagers, which is very unbiblical. Setting higher standards to which we strive to attain. Throwing away what is worthless and worldly and sinful. Going above and beyond the call of duty. Not just trying to be a christian, but to strive to be more Christ like. We as children of God should serve God with all our heart and soul and mind. Why should we care what others think of us? What we should care about is what others think of God. As image bearers we should try to our utmost to reflect Him. Of course we fall and sin, but we should pick ourselves back up and try even harder. We must keep in mind, though, that we can do nothing without Him. We are miserable failures, but with His strength, we can become heroes of the faith, encouraging others to join in the fight. An attitude of humility must be constantly upheld, lest we become arrogant and think ourselves better Christians than so-and-so.
To sum it all up, it's continually striving to better reflect Christ through your actions, words, and even appearance.
Here are some good passages backing up the Rebelution.

Philippians 3:7-21

Hebrews 12:1-2

Romans 12:1-3

2 Timothy 2:15
