The life of an apostle
When I see on television, the great bubbles of the Christian celebrations, or the big ceremonies to crown a king with the alleged blessing of God, when I see the shows of super healers and preachers on television, with its promising ways to talk a great life here on Earth,
And when I see the acceptance of people who claim to be believers, and compare with what the Apostle Paul said, I have no doubt, we are very far from God, and being away from God is death and despair that at moment least thought, will come, and our life will become a hell.
This letter was addressed to the Corinthians, but also wrote to all those who are considered Christian militants, servers Christ, when you read, remember what he said Jesus.
"" If a blind guide, another blind both will fall into the pit "," this is what is happening around the world, we let ourselves be guided by men and forget God and his word, Jesus and his Gospel.
1 Corinthians
8
You are already satisfied; you have already grown rich; you have become kings 3 without us! Indeed, I wish that you had become kings, so that we also might become kings with you.
9
4 For as I see it, God has exhibited us apostles as the last of all, like people sentenced to death, since we have become a spectacle to the world, to angels and human beings alike.
10
We are fools on Christ's account, but you are wise in Christ; we are weak, but you are strong; you are held in honor, but we in disrepute.
11
To this very hour we go hungry and thirsty, we are poorly clad and roughly treated, we wander about homeless
12
and we toil, working with our own hands. When ridiculed, we bless; when persecuted, we endure;
13
when slandered, we respond gently. We have become like the world's rubbish, the scum of all, to this very moment.
14
I am writing you this not to shame you, but to admonish you as my beloved children. 5
15
Even if you should have countless guides to Christ, yet you do not have many fathers, for I became your father in Christ Jesus through the gospel.
16
Therefore, I urge you, be imitators of me. .
