Paul, a Man of Prominence Yet Lived Lowly Life: Something to Reckon With Today

Paul was a spiritual planter who, after establishing many assemblies in various areas (1 Cor 3:6), retreated humbly into tent-making “for a living” (Acts 18:3).

It’s wonderful thing that Paul never group his believers into one conglomeration of denominations by appointing himself as Head of the Church. No!. Instead, he occasionally retreated into employment for living, never collecting financial support (1 Cor 9:12).

Paul refrained from applying his right to demand for support. Why? In order not to degrade his preaching to mere enriching as people think. By the way, the Head of the Church is Christ (Eph 5:23).

  The MAN of Isaiah 53  

“ . . . . hath no form nor comeliness; and when we see him, there is no beauty that we should desire him.  He was despised, and rejected of men; a man of sorrows, and acquainted with grief: and as one from whom men hide their face he was despised; and we esteemed him not. Surely he hath borne our griefs, and carried our sorrows; yet we did esteem him stricken, smitten of God, and afflicted. But he was wounded for our transgressions, he was bruised for our iniquities; the chastisement of our peace was upon him; and with his stripes we are healed” (Isaiah 53:2-5, ASV). Emphasis supplied.

“when we see him, there is no beauty that we should desire him!”

“. . . a man of sorrows, and acquainted with grief: and as one from whom men hide their face he was despised; and we esteemed him not.”

HOW NEARLY CHRIST LOOKED LIKE: Be ready, be familiar. There are two Christs to reckon with!
