In 1 Corinthians 3-4, Paul continues his rebuke of the pride that led the Corinthians to create divisions and factions based on their pursuit of worldly status. He shows them the right way to think about how God uses servants of the Lord as His stewards, as instruments in His hands. He continues to remind them that true greatness is seen in a life of sacrifice, suffering and service for Christ Jesus. May we at Faith Bible Church continue to grow in how we humbly boast in Christ Jesus and are willing to serve Him through any hardship or difficulty we encounter. May the humble, sacrificial life of Christ that marked the Apostle Paul so clearly continue to mark each of us!
