Christianity and My Law Practice
I am a California attorney. As an attorney I am required by California to conduct myself and my practice of the law according to certain rules. The source of some of these rules come from the Rules of Professional Conduct, and the Business and Professions Code.
I happily follow these rules because they are designed to improve the practice of law and provide ethical guidelines which also helps to improve how we attorneys are perceived.
I am also a Christian. As a Christian attorney I strive to conduct myself and my business according to Biblical principles. Further, I seek to glorify Jesus Christ in what I do. Therefore, as a Christian attorney I am bound by the rules of California as well as the Bible.
I am not saying I am better than any other attorney that does not hold the same beliefs as I do; that is not the purpose of me telling you about this aspect of my practice. So why am I telling you about this aspect? Because I think it is important to give thanks and recognize the source of all of the rules that I follow.
We can profess our beliefs and love of Jesus with pride while following the law of the land, as well as those of the Bible.
