Can One Keep Warm Alone?

A Christian who would be faithful to their Lord will always come to the place where they will ask themselves the question: “Who am I laboring for?” We want to be able to say that we are laboring for and with Christ, and that what we are laboring for, is the everlasting good of people around us. Now, this afternoon, we want to complete our study of the advantages of two working together being better than one. And then we want to go on in the next message to think about what is even better even yet; the advantages of 3 or more working together in the bonds of Christian love. (The cord of three strands) But now we want to 1st of all – Look at the personal duty that we have to keep the cause of Christ warm by ministering to Him. And then 2nd – We want to see how this warmth is conveyed to ourselves, and also by ourselves, to others. That is; that there is a decided advantage brought to the Church and the cause of Christ where “a cord of three strands” is formed. May God help us, not only to see these advantages as objectively desirable, but also that we might strive to seek to live these principles of truth out, for Christ’s sake and His glory as well.
