#60 THOUGH HE BE LORD OF ALL

In his message, Saturday, September 26th, Brother Sigh showed that Christian maturity is earned, not claimed.  If we are Christ's, then we are "heirs" according to the promise. But an heir, "as long as he's a child, differs nothing from a servant, though he is lord of all." (Gal. 4:1) In other words, a prince goes through a grueling regime of education, protocol, and military training before crowned as a king.

Many Christians expect to sit on thrones in the kingdom yet are unwilling to learn obedience by the things which Jesus suffered (Hebrews 5:8). They will be sorely disappointed.
