Do Not Be A Castaway
SEPTEMBER 6, 2022
Psa. 138-143 / 1 Co. 9
WHAT GOD HAS SAID:
1 Corinthians 9:27 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.
WHAT I HAVE SEEN:
We have all heard of someone who has said something like, “I don’t want to go to Church, they are just a bunch of Hypocrites.” At that moment you want to tell them, “Well there is always room for one more!” However, politeness does not allow that. The problem is one that Paul addressed here in 1 Corinthians 9:27.
Paul said we must all watch how we live our lives. Keeping fleshly desires in subjection, or under control. Otherwise, when we tell someone of how much we love God, His Word, and His church, they may look at our lifestyle and think, “REALLY, what you are saying and how you live do not match up.” At that moment our testimony, and their desire for Christ is then cast away.
WHAT WILL YOU DO:
You don’t want to be a castaway, do you?
