The first priority for anyone in ministry is to please God,

• not leaders
• not friends
• not those we lead
• not those we preach to
• not even ourselves

If I were still trying to please men, I would not be a servant of Christ.

Galatians 1:10

Men's weak spot.

Sisters, we are not proud of our weaknesses. On behalf of myself and my brothers, please be mindful of what you wear for the sake of us guys who battle with lust—any revealing flesh above the knees or around the chest, back and shoulders are potential hazards for stumbling thoughts and desires.

Please help us also not to be distracted so as to see your worth in your dress or beauty, but rather in the display of Christ's lordship over your life: your devotion to godliness; your perseverance in prayer and bible reading; your zeal to see disciples of all nations maximised for Christ's glory.

How then could I do this great evil and sin against God?

Joseph, Genesis 39:9

An angry man.

An angry man stirs up dissension, and a hot-tempered one commits many sins.

Proverbs 29:22

-

Incessant distress and frustration is no excuse; 

For the anger of man does not bring about the righteous life that God desires.
May God impel that spirit of power, of love and of self-discipline in us,
And be merciful unto me, a sinner.

Not in vain.

Blessed is the man who perseveres under trial, because when he has stood the test, he will receive the crown of life that God has promised to those who love him.

James 1:12

The perplexing battle for righteousness.

1. Christians fight sin knowing ultimately the battle has already been won.
2. Christians don't fight trying to earn victory, but living up to the victory we have already attained in Jesus.

There is therefore now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus.
