How Do Others See You?
First Corinthians 4;1
"So then,men ought to regard us as servants of Christ and as those entrusted with the secret things of God"
if we go back to see why the "so then" is there,we find the Apostle Paul was referring to how ministers of the church were to be careful how they handled doctrine and what was built on the fuondation already laid.I suppose we are all ministers of God's Word in a way.So then we are all as much accountable as the frontline preachers and teachers when it comes to our handling of the truth we are taught and teach others.
Verse 2-"Now it is required that those who have been given a trust must prove faithful."
May we all prove to be faithful with what we have been entrusted with.
[When reading the article I posted earlier today'Taking Christ Out of Christianity',these thoughts from the above verses relate even more ]
Heavenly Father,help me ,help all of us to prove faithful to you and the truth of your Word .Thank you,in Jesus' name.AMEN!

So everywhere we go, we tell everyone about Christ. We warn them and teach them with all the wisdom God has given us, for we want to present them to God, perfect in their relationship to Christ.
I work very hard at this, as I depend on Christ's mighty power that works within me.
Colossians 1;28,29-NLT
