...INDEX FINGER AGAINST MR. SELF...

TEXT: 1 COR. 10:24

'Let no man seek his own, but
ever y man another’s wealth...'

It is a sign that self is exalted and in dominion when men do not care how it goes with the public, so long as they can promote their private interest. I mention this because, as self is to be denied for God’s sake, so it is to be denied for the good of others.

There is self in opposition to God, and self in opposition to the good of others. As we are bound to promote the glory of God, so are we, the public good.

Therefore the children of God should have no heart or regard to their private conveniences when it brings the loss of the glory of God or public good.

OH TO BE SAVED AND SAFE FROM MYSELF DEAR LORD!
Amen!
