GIVING UP RIGHTS FOR THE SAKE OF THE GOSPEL 1 CORINTHIANS 9:1-2

January 29th 2011

Paul exhibit an example of a sacrificial Christian life to follow. Sometimes like  Paul, it may be necessary to give up legitimate rights and privileges for the sake of the gospel for  peace  among brethren and as an offering of sacrificial love for brethren. What are the Apostles’ rights that Paul and Barnabas gave up? Read. Vv.4-6 again. See Paul’s  conclusion in vv.12. Why did Paul decide to give up his rights? All Christians are called to live  a sacrificial Christians life, so that they can be channels of blessing to others. Live your life to  honour  God

Thought:  What right are you willing to give up for gospel’s sake?Pray that the Lord will help you give up whatever had become hindrance to you be taken away from your life for the sake of Christ.
