Getting Over Yourself![By leaving Our Childish Ways]

Getting Over Yourself! [By Leaving Our Childish Ways] 1 Corinthians 13:11-13.Paul illustrates the passing of the sign gifts of prophecy and divine knowledge, and the maturing of the Church, by using the immaturity of a child and the maturity of an adult as an illustration. A child communicates much differently than an adult. The temporary gifts of the spirit were like the communication of a little child. They revealed partial or incomplete understanding. When the New Testament would be perfected or complete, it would be like a person who reached the maturity of an adult. When the New Testament would be complete, it would signify that the Church was mature like a man that was grown. The child in you can be the determining factor in life, which can be lead and be misled.Discover the beauty in losing yourself—and ultimately in gaining Him.
