Once we submit ourselves to Jesus’ lordship, the immediate effect isn’t necessarily dramatic activity but rather genuine humility. Examining Paul’s exhortation to think about our identity and role within God’s kingdom, Alistair Begg explains that a biblical view of ourselves as recipients of God’s mercy is the foundation for exercising our spiritual gifts. For the saints of God, humility, not ambition, is the root of healthy relationships.
