Not Ourselves But Christ

'For we preach not ourselves but Christ Jesus the Lord and ourselves your servants for Jesus' sake'.

The vintage Apostle Paul making the Corinthian brethren to understand the essence of the Gospel and the atoning sacrifice of Christ.
In this Easter season, what are we to do the best? It is time to speak more about Christ to the world, write more about Christ so that more people could read about his atoning sacrifice and show by example the work of his grace in your life.

Putting ourselves in front and relegating the Lord's saving grace to the background is certainly not the will of God for us. This is the time for more souls to be won for Christ.

Preach the word in season and out of season. Be ready to be a servant for the sake of Christ so that unsaved church goers could believe through your example. Remember that you are the book being read by the world as an ambassador of Christ.

As we remember the last supper, let us re-ignite our passion for Christ.

Text. 2 Cor. 2:5
