This is Pastor Daniel Seanson. I'm director of the Southside Life Station and
pastor of the United Soul Shed Baptist Church of East Toledo and you're receiving this
message because you opted in to be encouraged. We have been working through
Galatians 6, 7 to 10 and we're coming to the end of that road now, four weeks in,
6, 7, 6, 10 rather says this. So then while we have opportunity, let us do good to
all people and especially to those who are of the household of faith. This verse
can be a challenge for some folks especially folks who don't necessarily go
to church or participate in a local body of worship. The entire New Testament
beginning to end was written in the context of the church. It was written for
the church, by the church, to the church, read in the church, passed around in the
church, recognized by the church, the local church, local bodies all agreeing
independently but not dependent, but dependent on God. There we go,
independently but dependent on God. What the Bible would be and what they would
do about it. So then while we have the opportunity, that's right now, there's a
lot of evil in the world but we're not going to be part of it, we're going to do
good. Let us do good to all people. Boy, we need to try to bless everyone we
possibly can. Look out for people to smile, to open the door for help, give a
hand up, give them money, serve them, whatever needs to be done to do
good. Do good under God. Don't just go wasting God's resources but to do good
and then especially it says to those who are of the household of faith. Those of
us who are following the Lord Jesus Christ but have not found a local church
home are going to really answer for that last half of that verse when the time
comes. If you're especially supposed to do good to those who are of the
household of faith, you can have a hard time explaining why you're not in the
household of faith doing good. I would encourage you to find a local church and
participate as this word and many others command and I would also encourage you to
do good at every opportunity. No one can stop you from doing whatever you're
capable of in the Lord. To opt out of receiving future messages from this
group.
