Jesus also, that he might sanctify the people with his own blood, suffered outside the gate. Therefore, let us go forth to him outside the camp, bearing his reproach. For we have no continuing city here, but we seek one to come.
Select a thought to read by choosing a collection, the month, and then the day:
Bro. John.
I pray that I will, as Uncle Joe said, bear the reproach and not be one. I listened to “The Attitude of a Servant” sermon again this week, and I found something that the Lord spoke to me in a meeting in 1995 when I was praying to be a “good servant.” This is what He told me:
“My servants are not cowards.
My servants are not slothful.
My servants are not wasteful.
My servants are not ashamed.”
Reasonable standards for serving in the name of our Lord Jesus. :)

I believe it, Sandy. I believe that was the word of the Lord to you. May God give me, and all of us, grace not to be cowardly, nor slothful, nor wasteful, nor ashamed.
