Subject: Steward of the mysteries of God? |
Bible Note: Hi wdc, An excellent writing here. I was looking at your references and read in I Cor 3:22b,"For all things belong to you, whether Paul or Apollos or Cephas or the world or life or death or things present or things to come; all things belong to you, and you belong to (Christ) ;and Christ belongs to God." Sorry, parenthesis is mine. Compare that with Gal l:22 and Gal 3:29,"There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither slave nor free man, there is neither male nor female; for you are all one in Christ Jesus. And if you belong to (Christ), then you are Abraham's offspring, heirs according to promise." Also, Eph 3:lb,"the prisoner of (Christ) Jesus...if indeed you have heard of the stewardship of God's grace which was given to me for you;" All believers are stewards and we all have something to contribute.
