Sisters and Brothers,
This week, we are continue on chapter nine of St. Paul's first letter to Corinthians.
Here, Paul defended his position as an apostle and the right of teaching God's word. For us, there is absolutely no confusion in recognizing Paul's apostleship. Although it is not that clear in the early day of our church, especially what Paul did in his early life.
I would like to reflect one important point from this chapter:
"Do you not know that those who perform the temple services eat (what) belongs to the temple, and those who minister at the altar share in the sacrificial offerings? In the same way, the Lord ordered that those who preach the gospel should live by the gospel"
It is so true whoever preach gospel should live by the gospel. As a matter of fact, we all Christian should live by the gospel. Isn't this is the best way of preaching Lord's commands if you really exercise the commands. Let's all encourage each other in following Lord's step as well as all the saints gone before us.
in Christ,
Dan
