PURPOSE
1st CORINTHIANS 9:26-27
I therefore so run, not as uncertainty; so I fight, not as one who beats the air: But I keep under my body, and bring it into subjection: lest that by any means, when I have preached to others, I myself should be a castaway.
Paul offers words of warning to those who preach the gospel of Christ - those in such a position must be careful not to only preach the truth but to live the truth was well - if we spend all our time just telling others about Jesus and not working on our relationship with Him we may end up a castaway - I don't say this to say that we can lose what Jesus paid for - but to say that if we are not careful - we can neglect our relationship with Christ in our call to preach the gospel - that's one reason that lately when I feel God say to take a break - I take a break - I don't resist it like I used too - I know that He is always right and right on time - I don't want to be a castaway - one that tells others about Jesus but who is not close to Him - those of you who have not been called to preaching the Gospel - actually have to concentrate on this as well - because all of us whom Jesus saved have been called to minister to those around us - I will say that this can take many forms - some of you show Jesus by just loving others -by being the hands and feet of Jesus - others through the gift of song - still other's by building things for those in need -some its watching children so their parents can be feed by the Word- the point is to do what God asks you to do - and do it with all you have - but in the same way - work on your relationship with Christ just as hard - note its not us doing it - but us depending on the Holy Spirit that opens the door to God's purpose for our lives- now let go out and live it - loudly for HIS glory!
footnote: We are Christ on display everyday!
CHRIST Lives in us so He can live through us!
