It's Time

“Behold, now is the acceptable time, behold, now is the day of salvation.” (2 Corinthians 6:2)

            If Satan can get you to place your confidence in what you did for Christ in the past or cling to the guilt of past sins – he will have won.

            If Satan can turn your gaze toward the future with the belief that someday you will begin to serve, love, follow, and obey Jesus as you ought – he will have won.

            The only acceptable day for faith is today.  It is the soul you are today who matters – neither the one you once were or the one you envision you might be matters.  It is now that you are living.

Matthew 4:4 #Biblebites

Today’s Reading: 2 Corinthians 6:1-10

Questions to ask:

1. How is Paul feeling as he writes today’s passage? What is his mood?
2. What are the central themes in Paul’s preaching and teaching which are being emphasized, or how are the central themes in this epistle being emphasized in today’s reading?
3. How does our reading show Paul’s people skills, especially how he handles conflict?
4. What in this passage would change the lives of the believer(s) being addressed? How does it make me a better disciple?
5. How does this show the “good news” of the gospel? How can I share that with someone else?

This year, #Biblebites are following the life and writings of Paul.  If you would like a copy of the reading schedule, you can view it here: https://eastlandchristians.org/news-events/2023-vision
