2 Corinthians 4:5; Your Servants For Jesus’ Sake
The Apostle Paul and his co-workers understood well the Lordship of Christ in their lives. The distinction of this Master-servant is very clear to them. Recall he was struck blind by Jesus. He understood well his place in God’s economy. He understood the motions of pride as Scripture recorded of Lucifer, the archangel’s fall.
Isaiah 14:12-15 How art thou fallen from heaven, O Lucifer, son of the morning! howart thou cut down to the ground, which didst weaken the nations! For thou hast said in thine heart, I will ascend into heaven, I will exalt my throne above the stars of God: I will sit also upon the mount of the congregation, in the sides of the north: I will ascend above the heights of the clouds; I will be like the most High. Yet thou shalt be brought down to hell, to the sides of the pit.
