I Corinthians 7:17-24
\nLive as You Are Called<\/b><\/span><\/p>\n

Today, 05\/05\/2023, let us, together in the grace of God, rejoice and reflect on the Word of God in I Corinthians 7:17-24.<\/span><\/p>\n

17 But as God hath distributed to every man, as the Lord hath called every one, so let him walk. And so ordain I in all churches.<\/i><\/span><\/p>\n

18 Is any man called being circumcised? let him not become uncircumcised. Is any called in uncircumcision? let him not be circumcised.<\/i><\/span><\/p>\n

19 Circumcision is nothing, and uncircumcision is nothing, but the keeping of the commandments of God.<\/i><\/span><\/p>\n

20 Let every man abide in the same calling wherein he was called.<\/i><\/span><\/p>\n

21 Art thou called being a servant? care not for it: but if thou mayest be made free, use it rather.<\/i><\/span><\/p>\n

22 For he that is called in the Lord, being a servant, is the Lord’s freeman: likewise also he that is called, being free, is Christ’s servant.<\/i><\/span><\/p>\n

23 Ye are bought with a price; be not ye the servants of men.<\/i><\/span><\/p>\n

24 Brethren, let every man, wherein he is called, therein abide with God.<\/i><\/span><\/p>\n

[King James Version]<\/span><\/p>\n

Suggested Questions:<\/b><\/span><\/p>\n

1. What is God’s general calling for everyone, and what is God’s specific calling for each person?<\/span><\/p>\n

2. Does verse 18 teach that those who have not undergone circumcision after receiving Christ do not need to be circumcised?<\/span><\/p>\n

3. What does verse 20 mean?<\/span><\/p>\n

4. What does it mean to become a slave to humanity?<\/span><\/p>\n

5. What does verse 24 mean?<\/span><\/p>\n

Suggested Applications:<\/b><\/span><\/p>\n

1. Do you have a special calling from God? If so, how have you responded to it?<\/span><\/p>\n

2. Have you recognized what God wants you to do in these last days?<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
