Grace for your spirit January 11, 2011

Grace for your spirit
Therefore, I testify to you this day that I am innocent of the blood of all men. For I did not shrink from declaring to you the whole counsel of God Acts 20:26-27

The Apostle Paul had many enemies and false accusers. The Jews didn't like him, the Gentles didn't trust him and Christians were afraid. He had to spend far too much time defending himself and his decisions about his ministry. This was Paul's personal evaluation of his ministry. He declared himself to be innocent of all accusations, because he declared the whole counsel of God publicly and house to house. In this world, and even in the church, when we spend all of our efforts in His Word and declaring His Word, we will be misunderstood. It is important that we do not let these accusations stop us. We know when we are getting somewhere when someone is always trying to stop us. Let us study, serve, and not be ashamed before God or anyone.

The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ be with our spirit
Philippians 4:23
