“Follow my example, as I follow the example of Christ.” (1 Cor. 11:1 NIV)

Be a good example in speech, conduct and love

“Let no one despise you for your youth, but set the believers an example in speech, in conduct, in love, in faith, in purity.” (1 Tim. 4:12 ESV)

Show yourself to be a model of good works

“Likewise, urge the younger men to be self-controlled. Show yourself in all respects to be a model of good works, and in your teaching show integrity, dignity,” (Titus 2:6-7 ESV)

“For I have given you an example, that you also should do just as I have done to you.” (John 13:15 ESV)

Keep your eyes on others who are good examples 

“Brothers, join in imitating me, and keep your eyes on those who walk according to the example you have in us.” (Phil. 3:17 ESV)

When they see your good deeds they will glorify God

“Keep your conduct among the Gentiles honorable, so that when they speak against you as evildoers, they may see your good deeds and glorify God on the day of visitation.” (1 Pet. 2:12 ESV)

 Therefore

“What you have learned and received and heard and seen in me—practice these things, and the God of peace will be with you.” (Phil. 4:9 ESV)

“Live as people who are free, not using your freedom as a cover-up for evil, but living as servants of God.” (1 Pet. 2:16 ESV)

“By this all people will know that you are my disciples, if you have love for one another.” (John 13:37 ESV)
