“For am I now seeking the favor of men, or of God? Or am I striving to please men? If I were still trying to please men, I would not be a bond-servant of Christ.” Galatians 1:10 (NASB95).
My name is Abraham Hamilton, III and this is The Hamilton Minute.
In this epistle to the gentile Believers in Galatia, Paul presents two notions that are fundamentally incompatible: man-pleasing or living to please the LORD. There is no middle ground.
We will either live to please men and consequently live tossed to an fro, unstable in all of our ways. Or, we will live a lifestyle of worship unto the audience of One and our Christ-centered devotion will be evident in every aspect of our lives.
Choose wisely. Live wisely.
