Rooted in Christ but Relevant for Our Changing World

 (ID: gs1483)

All Christian leaders, and especially those who minister the Word of God, must be sure that they remain firmly rooted in Christ. This is especially true when the world around us challenges the Christian faith in new ways. As Third Millennium Ministries’ Richard Pratt explains, the apostle Paul experienced this in his own life—and in 1 Corinthians, he wrote how he was able to stay firmly rooted but also relevant in his changing world.

19For hthough I am free from all, iI have made myself a servant to all, that I might jwin more of them. 20kTo the Jews I became as a Jew, in order to win Jews. To those under the law I became as one under the law (though not being myself under the law) that I might win those under the law. 21To lthose outside the law I became mas one outside the law (not being outside the law of God but nunder the law of Christ) that I might win those outside the law. 22oTo the weak I became weak, that I might win the weak. pI have become all things to all people, that qby all means I might save some. 23I do it all for the sake of the gospel, rthat I may share with them in its blessings.
