San Diego Padres’ Post

Check out my latest article on the newest priest in our Holy Chaldean Church!

As Pensacola Christian College begins its 50th year, a theme that has been present during opening meetings has been "To God Be the Glory." I am reminded of 1 Corinthians 10:31-33 which states: "31 Whether therefore ye eat, or drink, or whatsoever ye do, do all to the glory of God. 32 Give none offence, neither to the Jews, nor to the Gentiles, nor to the church of God: 33 Even as I please all men in all things, not seeking mine own profit, but the profit of many, that they may be saved." In general, it is a good practice to avoid 100% statements (all, none, always, never, etc.). What I find interesting in this passage is that Paul through inspiration of God uses no less than three 100% statements. "All" I do should be to the glory of God. I am to give "none" offence - I do not want to be the barrier to someone coming to God. Then finally, my actions are to seek not my own profit but that of "all me.....that they might be saved." I would like to encourage you whether as an educator or as a businessman or some other professional, to keep the 100% where God does. Share your favorite 100% statement from God the comments please.

MAY 25 BETTER THAN WINNING When you do things, do not let selfishness or pride be your guide. Instead, be humble and give more honor to others than to yourselves. PHILIPPIANS 2:3 NCV My Lord, l look to you to satisfy my need for justice and for righteousness. I know that you have my back and because of this, I can love anyone who mistreats me and I can humbly act when confronted with what I think is injustice. Help me to defer to your wisdom and treat others, especially those whom I think are intentionally treating me poorly, with a positive attitude. Help me to look for the positive possibilities in their actions, while I allow you to deal with their hearts. Unlike me, you don't judge by mere appearances but, instead, make right judgments. Help me to follow in your steps and put aside my own pride so l see things more clearly. How can the Holy Spirit help you to treat someone more humbly?
