Psalm 15-God shows the description that us humans are supposed to be.
Lord, who can dwell in Your tent? Who can live on Your mountain?
God replies: The one who lives honestly, practices righteousness, and acknowledges the truth in his heart, who does not slander his tongue, who does not harm his friend or discredit his neighbor, who despises the one rejected by The Lord, but honors those who fear The Lord, who keeps his word whatever the cost, who does not lend money at interest, or take the bribe against the innocent, the one who does these things will never be moved.
In other words God wants us not to just talk the talk but walk the walk, be righteous in His name, see the truth in his heart, doesn't speak dirty, does not lower anyone around them, despises the devil and everything that has him in it but looks up to those who praise God, who will do anything for the sake of the gospel, someone who doesn't put money at interest.
This gives us a life style to live by, something to grasp if we tried our best to live by this everyday we will be a light into the world. We would be a Christ like figure. I realize I've done most of these things but I ask for forgiveness. That doesn't mean I keep doing this stuff or I ask for forgiveness for them over and over again, I try my best to stop.
