| stealing Gods throne |
|
| |
thinking about this this morning and reading it in several translations has me thinking.....the only way to renew your mind is to think about yourself honestly, in reality...to not exalt yourself...humility is an amazing thing, and just when you think you are humble, you are not...pride is an ugly thing
and pride tries to steal the throne from God (my pastor said this in his sermon this past week and its been stuck in my brain...how many times have I tried unknowingly to steal Gods throne?)
we are brothers and sistesr in Christ and therefore must lift each other up and help one another at all times
12:3 For by the grace given to me I bid every one among you not to think of himself more highly than he ought to think, but to think with sober judgment, each according to the measure of faith which God has assigned him. 12:4 For as in one body we have many members, and all the members do not have the same function, 12:5 so we, though many, are one body in Christ, and individually members one of another. |
