“Our Individual Responsibility-Jack Blake”
Categories: Fellowship, Love, MercyGood Morning,
As disciples of Christ we each have individual responsibilities to the Lord our God. Jesus said: " You are the salt of the earth, but if the salt losses its savour it is good for nothing, but to be cast out, and be trodden under the feet of men. You are the light of the world. A city that is set on a hill cannot be hidden. Therefore we are to let our light so shine before men, that they may see our good works, and glorify your Father which is in heaven". (Matthew 5.13-16). Feed the hungry, give drink to the thirsty, clothe the naked, visit the sick, go to those in prison. For if we do these things unto one of the least of these, we have done it unto Him. (See Matthew 25.35-40). But if a brother or sister be naked and destitute of daily food, and we say to them, depart be warmed and filled; not withstanding you give them not those things which are needful to the body; what does it profit? Faith without works is dead, being alone. (James 2.5-17) God is not unrighteous to forget our work and labor of love which we show toward His name. (Hebrews 6.10). Brethren these are a very small sample of what our individual responsibilities are. Can we do better as the salt of the earth and the light of the world?
