Daily Bread #695 - "He's On Another Level"
(4) When one of you says, “I am a follower of Paul,” and another says, “I follow Apollos,” aren’t you acting just like people of the world? (5) After all, who is Apollos? Who is Paul? We are only God’s servants through whom you believed the Good News. Each of us did the work the Lord gave us.
1 Corinthians 3:4-5 - NLT
Textual Insight:
Immature (and worldly) individuals often have misplaced allegiances and limited perspectives. They sometimes elevate the importance of men or lower the importance of Jesus. While we should honor and appreciate our preachers, teachers and role models, they are not to be elevated to the status of Jesus. They perform an important service, but Jesus did the most important job when he descended from glory, put on humanity, and died on Calvary to save our souls!
Sincerely,
Chris Threatt
