We begin a new special series today, looking at the various balances we try to maintain as we live for Jesus.
This morning we will look at our relationship with the world, not the material things of creation, but the people who have not given themselves to Christ.
I) God makes this distinction
From the time of Cain –
Noah was separated from the world, so that they could be destroyed – ,
God called Abram away from his family (which stands as a symbol for the world) –
Israel was instructed to maintain this separation –
II) This separation is an important aspect of Christianity
Jesus told this to Pilate –
He mentions this separation in His prayer to God –
Paul quotes OT passages to explain this to Corinthian Christians – (; ; )
We must not love the things of the world – ; ;
The world will hate us –
The purpose of baptism is to make that separation –
III) Yet, we still live in the world
Paul corrects the misunderstanding of the Corinthians –
We are supposed to be lights in the world –
We cannot show Christianity to the world if we hide from them – ; ;
Concl: One of the balances of Christianity is learning how to live in this world with the light of the gospel showing in our lives, yet maintaining our separateness from the world.
There are temptations that attempt to bring us into this world – both from persecutions and from blessings.
Yet, we must always remember which world in which we are at home – .
