The joyful responsibilities of every true believer in Christ Jesus:
a. TO GOD:
1 Corinthians 6:19-20 Do you not know that your bodies are temples of the Holy Spirit, who is in you, …? You are not your own; you were bought at a price. Therefore honor God with your bodies.
1 Corinthians 4:1-2 This, then, is how you ought to regard us: as servants of Christ and as those entrusted with the mysteries God has revealed. Now it is required …
2 Corinthians 5:19-20 that God was reconciling the world to himself in Christ, not counting people’s sins against them. And he has committed to us the message of reconciliation.
