08/25/19 SERVANTS OF GOD

08/25/19 SERVANTS OF GOD 
 
Being a child of God does not cancel out being a servant of God. We need to understand that we are His slaves, bound by love.

SERVANTS OF GOD
I separate verses and use (*) to focus on points.

Romans 1:1
1 *Paul, a servant of Jesus Christ, called to be an apostle, separated unto the gospel of God,

Romans 14:4-12
4 Who art thou that judgest another man's servant? to his own master he standeth or falleth. Yea, he shall be holden up: for God is able to make him stand.
5 One man esteemeth one day above another: another esteemeth every day alike. Let every man be fully persuaded in his own mind.
6 He that regardeth the day, regardeth it unto the Lord; and he that regardeth not the day, to the Lord he doth not regard it. He that eateth, eateth to the Lord, for he giveth God thanks; and he that eateth not, to the Lord he eateth not, and giveth God thanks.
7 For none of us liveth to himself, and no man dieth to himself.

*8 For whether we live, we live unto the Lord; and whether we die, we die unto the Lord: whether we live therefore, or die, we are the Lord's.

*9 For to this end Christ both died, and rose, and revived, that he might be Lord both of the dead and living.

10 But why dost thou judge thy brother? or why dost thou set at nought thy brother? for we shall all stand before the judgment seat of Christ.
11 For it is written, As I live, saith the Lord, every knee shall bow to me, and every tongue shall confess to God.
*12 So then every one of us shall give account of himself to God.

1 Corinthians 7:22-23
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.

*23 Ye are bought with a price; be not ye the servants of men.

Galatians 1:10
10 For do I now persuade men, or God? or do I seek to please men? *for if I yet pleased men, I should not be the servant of Christ.

Colossians 4:12
12 Epaphras, who is one of you, *a servant of Christ, saluteth you, always labouring fervently for you in prayers, that ye may stand perfect and complete in all the will of God.

2 Timothy 2:21-26
21 If a man therefore purge himself from these, he shall be a vessel unto honour, sanctified, *and meet for the master's use, and prepared unto every good work.

22 Flee also youthful lusts: but follow righteousness, faith, charity, peace, with them that call on the Lord out of a pure heart.
23 But foolish and unlearned questions avoid, knowing that they do gender strifes.

*24 And *the servant of the Lord must not strive; but be gentle unto all men, apt to teach, patient,
25 In meekness instructing those that oppose themselves; if God peradventure will give them repentance to the acknowledging of the truth;
26 And that they may recover themselves out of the snare of the devil, who are taken captive by him at his will.

Titus 1:1
1 *Paul, a servant of God, and an apostle of Jesus Christ, according to the faith of God's elect, and the acknowledging of the truth which is after godliness;

James 1:1
1 *James, a servant of God and of the Lord Jesus Christ, to the twelve tribes which are scattered abroad, greeting.

2 Peter 1:1-2
1 *Simon Peter, a servant and an apostle of Jesus Christ, to them that have obtained like precious faith with us through the righteousness of God and our Saviour Jesus Christ:
2 Grace and peace be multiplied unto you through the knowledge of God, and of Jesus our Lord,

Jude 1:1
1 *Jude, the servant of Jesus Christ, and brother of James, to them that are sanctified by God the Father, and preserved in Jesus Christ, and called:
