Last night we explored the concept of work as outlined in the Bible and contrasted it against the popular opinion of society. We discovered that society says that work is a means to an end – we work to live. Scripture tells us that we live to work. Society says that it’s okay to hate work or deny it. To avoid it and be enabled to do so because the government will provide for you. But Scripture says the exact opposite. It says that work is part of our purpose. It says that it’s not the role of the government to provide but the role of the church. God wants us to work so that through the church He can provide for those who can’t. So we are called to work and to provide for those in need. But not for those who willfully choose to be in need.
Work is intended for the fulfillment of man, the benefit of the community, and then, most importantly, Scripture teaches that through work God should be glorified. Is that true of you?
Are you ready to serve? To serve through your work and to serve in the church? COMAPNY122 NEEDS YOU!
