“Consider Your Calling”
“Consider Your Calling”
Blessings folk!
Let us read and rejoice through this portion of the Word slowly…so much here…
1 Co 1:26
For consider your calling, brothers and sisters,
that there were not many wise according to the flesh, not many mighty, not many noble…
The Spirit is leading Paul to write to the Body of Believers at Corinth.
He is telling them some profound truths about “who they are”.
Note, he calls them brothers and sisters.
They were true Believers.
They were all OneAnother within the Kingdom.
Then this.
They were called.
They each and every one had a “calling”.
The Lord had purpose for each one within the Kingdom.
Paul exhorted them to consider this.
We should also consider.
We are brothers and sisters.
We are called.
What does that mean as to how we should live?
Then Paul acknowledges the “pink elephant in the room”.
Not many of them were “wise according to the flesh”.
Not many of them were “mighty”.
Not may were “noble”.
In other words, they were average folk.
They were not the elite of man’s mind.
They were folk like us.
We will see more as to why the Lord was saying this.
For now, consider these truths.
Consider the fact that you are a true brother and sister…if you are truly saved.
If you are a false believer, then repent and be saved.
Consider the calling the Lord has placed on you.
Each believer is called.
Then, live the calling…
