Bible Question: how do we enefit when we serve in gods house? |
Bible Answer: Greetings sarahcitychurch! Take a look at Ephesians 4, 1 Corinthians 12, and Romans 12. I would think there is much that could be said in regards to your question. The suggested passages above should give you a good idea of the importance of finding your place in the body of Christ. First of all, you have been blessed beyond measure if you have even been placed in the Church by God (1 Corinthians 12:18). It must be said that not only do you benefit, but so to does the body of Christ! Thoughts that come to mind before I run off to work - An opportunity to reach out to the community and the world to share the Lord Jesus Christ with others! An opportunity to serve the King! An opportunity to serve your Brothers and Sisters in Christ! An opportunity to experience abundant life! An opportunity for obedience! An opportunity to grow even closer to the Lord God! An opportunity to study His word and share it with others! etc.., etc..., etc... The benefits are endless for it is God Himself that has placed you there! |
