Solemn Thoughts about Sincere Truth!

1 Corinthians 5: 6-8

Your boasting is not good. Don't you know that a little yeast works through the whole batch of dough? Get rid of the old yeast that you may be a new batch without yeast—as you really are. For Christ, our Passover lamb, has been sacrificed. Therefore let us keep the Festival, not with the old yeast, the yeast of malice and wickedness, but with bread without yeast, the bread of sincerity and truth.

Many Believers in Christ are very, very familiar with these verses of scripture.

These words were inspired by Jehovah God, revealed to Paul by Holy Spirit, to be spoken to the church, HIS body of believers, called out from among the world to be different and separate, avoiding every kind of evil, striving to please a Holy and Righteous God, gaining not the admiration and glory from any man, responsible for testifying to the world about Christ and HIS deep love and conviction for reconciling man into a deep spiritual relationship with our Heavenly Father!!!

Many scholars and great men have repeated these verses and even written detailed volumes about this particular account, giving every conceivable explanation and definition to the meaning and application of this situation for which Paul was addressing as a grave concern and one to be dealt with.

We as Believers in Christ must daily seek the face of God, confessing the greatest and least of our failures, dying to ourselves, boasting of HIM and HIM alone, being witness to HIS Glory and Righteousness,

Praising HIM, Worshiping HIM,

living a victorious life in HIM, and

proclaiming the Truth with BOLDNESS not boastfulness!

O' Lord, I fall at YOUR feet in complete surrender,

All I am and have is YOURS alone!

Having been given much, I shout and dance before YOU,

Continuously and forever, singing HOLY, HOLY, HOLY!!

YOU created me in YOUR image and likeness,

In sincere devotion and born of Truth,

I must proclaim, How Great YOU are, above all, in heaven and on the earth!!!
