TEXT: 1
Corinthians 1:26-31
26.
Take a good look, friends, at who you were when you got called into this life.
I don’t see many of “the brightest and the best” among you, not many
influential, not many from high-society families.
27.
Isn’t it obvious that God deliberately chose men and women that the culture
overlooks and exploits and abuses,
28.
chose these “nobodies” to expose the hollow pretensions of the “somebodies”?
29.
That makes it quite clear that none of you can get by with blowing your own
horn before God.
30.
Everything that we have – right thinking and right living, a clean slate and a
fresh start – comes from God by way of Jesus Christ.
31.
That’s why we have the saying, “If you’re going to blow a horn, blow a trumpet
for God.”
(The
Message Holy Bible)
TOPIC: LIVING
PROOF
While some people doubt the
salvation provided by Jesus Christ and preached by Apostle Paul, the Corinthian
brethren were living proof that salvation is from the Lord Jesus Christ and not
anything man has done to earn it.
Those in Christ are called
to be in union with Him to be justified. Skills and wisdom can earn no man
salvation. That is why Paul emphasized the fact that the way to receive
salvation is so simple that anyone who desires it can receive it.
But it must be understood
that no amount of human knowledge can replace or bypass Christ’s work on the
cross.
What can you do to display
the salvation of Jesus Christ in your own life?
QUESTION: Are
you a living proof of the salvation provided by Jesus Christ?
PRAYER: You
are the only source of salvation, dear Lord. Please let this be my portion and
message, in Jesus name, Amen.
Remain
Blessed
