What gives us confidence?
April 29, 2013 - 1 Corinthians 3
Dear Saints,
Today we prayerfully Feast in 1 Corinthians 3 ← (Hyperlink). Do you suppose yourself wiser than another in
God’s scripture because you have known Jesus longer? Don’t fool yourself for the quality of our relationship
with Jesus is far more important the length of our relationship. “18 Let no one deceive himself. If anyone among you
thinks that he is wise in this age, let him become a fool that he may become
wise. 19 For the wisdom of this world is folly with God. For it is written,
“He catches the wise in their craftiness,” 20 and again, “The Lord knows the
thoughts of the wise, that they are futile.” 21 So let no one boast in men.
For all things are yours, 22 whether Paul or Apollos or Cephas or the world
or life or death or the present or the future—all are yours, 23 and you are
Christ's, and Christ is God's.” 1 Corinthians 3:18-23 English Standard
Version (ESV). Only the worldly
automatically counts age as wisdom! Only
God can see the inner most thoughts of each believer. We are all servants of the same God; no
believer should set himself above another because Jesus rescued him before
the other. As believers we can definitely
know Jesus who paid for our sins. “For I know that my Redeemer lives, and at the last he will stand upon
the earth.” Job 19:25 ESV.
We are sure of our redeemer because
the Holy Spirit with whom we are sealed gives us confidence in the Word and
love of God! This is folly in the eyes
of the unbelievers because they are not sealed with the Holy Spirit. “16 So do not let what you regard
as good be spoken of as evil. 17 For the kingdom of God is not a matter of
eating and drinking but of righteousness and peace and joy in the Holy
Spirit. 18 Whoever thus serves Christ is acceptable to God and approved by
men.” Romans 14:16-18 ESV.

“Have
this mind among yourselves, which is yours in Christ Jesus, who, though he
was in the form of God, did not count equality with God a thing to be
grasped, but emptied himself, by taking the form of a servant, being born in
the likeness of men. And being found in human form, he humbled himself by
becoming obedient to the point of death, even death on a cross.”
Philippians 2:5-8 ESV.
