Share In All Good Things

Galatians 6:10  

"As we have therefore opportunity, let us do good unto all men, 

especially unto them who are of the household of faith." 

    Paul is being Practical here. He reminds us that Church was and still is really a sharing institution. No Christian should strive to have too much while others had too little. "Let him that is taught in the word communicate unto him that teacheth in all good things," (Gal.6:6). So what Paul is saying here is; If a man is teaching you the eternal truths, the least you can do is share with him such material things as you possess. 

    Life holds the scales with an even balance. If a man allows the scales to tip to the lower side of nature, in the end he can expect nothing but trouble. But if he keeps walking on the high side doing the right thing, in the end God will repay. 

   My Friends, Christianity never takes the threat out of Life. What we do need to remember is this. It is the blessed true that God can and does forgive men for their sins, but not even he can wipe out the consequence of sin. For example: If a man sins against his body, sooner or later he will pay in ruined health, even if he is forgiven. If a man sins against his loved ones, sooner or later hearts will be broken even if he is forgiven. We cannot trade on the forgiveness of God. There is a moral law in the universe. If a man breaks it he may be forgiven, but he breaks it at his risk. Let us all remember the duty of generosity, and the old cliche, "No man who ever cast his bread upon the waters found that it did not return some day to him." 
Amen!
