Romans 12.3
Join Pastor Jon and the HBC Family for this week’s livestream where we’re looking at Romans 12.3.
Deacons’ Letter Adopt a Garden
Verse 3 often gets lost but it’s an important remind to each of us.
- Thinking of yourself improperly impacts how you see the rest of the world
- Paul is speaking to the church – the body of Christ.
- This goes for arrogance as well as self-deprecation.
Paul goes on to say think with sober judgement.
- Actual growth stems from objective thought.
- Some of this is rooted in bad theology.
- Don’t cheapen the effect of the cross by labeling yourself incorrectly. If you are in Christ you have a new identity.
Let’s be careful about how we view ourselves as God’s children.
- We serve a God of second chances.
- God can redeem your thinking if you embrace what He says.
“Measure of Faith”
- We need to acknowledge that we are at uniquely different places in our spiritual journeys.
- Different gifts, different abilities – all so the body can function properly.
- Be thankful for what He has gifted you with, and use it for His glory.
The ground is level at the foot of the cross.
