I Corinthians 8-9
Dear RTB’ers,
During my years as Treasurer at St. Andrew’s I was able to see first-hand where our parishioners’ contributions went. And a very large chunk of our parish income went as Paul directed: In the same way, the Lord commanded that those who proclaim the gospel should get their living by the gospel. (v. 9:14) None of our staff members were getting wealthy from the salaries that we were paying, but in fact they were getting their living from their work in our church spreading the gospel. It’s always good for me to see Scripture being displayed in the world around me.
It’s election day in the USA (and then the aftermath!), plus my students have an exam today here in SK. I’m distracted! Please pray for our country, no matter who wins today!!
Blessings!
Regarding Election Day, we might want to take a look back at my “one more thing” comment from two years ago: November 8 (2022) / Ecclesiastes 5:1-9.
You might also consider the post from last year: December 5 (2023) / I Corinthians 9-11.
