Spiritual Honor

                                         Romans 1:14
                             "I am debtor both to the Greeks,
                                    and to the Barbarians"

        Paul was overwhelmed with the sense of his indebtedness to Jesus Christ, and he spent himself to express it.  The great inspiration in Paul's life was his view of Jesus Christ as his spiritual creditor.  Do I feel that sense of indebtedness to Christ in regard to every unsaved soul?  The spiritual honor of my life as a Christians is to fulfill my debt yo Christ in relation to them.  Every bit of my life that is of value I owe to the Redemption of Jesus Christ; am I doing anything to enable Him to bring His Redemption into actual manifestation in other lives?  I can only do it as the Spirit of god works in me this sense of indebtedness.
        I am not to be a superior person among men, but a bond-slave of the Lord Jesus Christ.  "Ye are not your own."  Paul sold himself to Jesus Christ.  He says; I am a debtor to everyone on the face of the earth because of the Gospel of Jesus Christ; I am free to be an absolute slave only.  That is the characteristic of the life when once this point of spiritual honor is realized.  Quit praying about yourself and be spent for others as the bond-slave of Jesus.  That is the meaning of being made broken bread and poured-out wine in reality.   Let us not seek "Honor" from Man!  Let us seek "Spiritual Honor!"

                                       And Your families
