The God We Worship – Part 2
How do you want others to think of you and how important are their thoughts? Now ask that question about God. Blessedly, we don’t have to wonder who it is we worship.
Gifts
This verse emphasizes that every believer has at least one gift. The gift is not given for us to let atrophy from lack of use. It has been given “to serve one another.” Neglecting to use your gift, for whatever reason, not only hurts you but the entire body of Christ. You have a gift! Time to use it!
Holding Others Up
How do you live a life that holds others up? What does it mean to submit to one another? Let’s start with a passage and then consider a real-life example that demonstrates how we are to place others above ourselves. Our passage is from Paul’s letter to the Ephesians.
Good News or Good Grief: Is Sharing Christ Pushing My Faith on Others?
The “Great Commission” has turned into the “Big Question” in our society. In the Great Commission, Jesus commands believers to: “Go into all the world and preach the Gospel.” In our post-modern culture, resistance to that command now causes many Christians to ask: “is sharing Christ pushing my faith on others?”
Our Part
Following Jesus is not a spectator sport. Look around you. And get involved in the work of the Lord in the lives of others.
