Are you the man's man?

Galations 1:10 For do I now persuade men, or God? or do I seek to please men? for if I yet pleased men, I should not be the servant of Christ.

Do you want to be man's man or Christ's servant, obviously Paul chose to be God's servant, and look what happened to his life!

An obvious comparison is David and Saul. Saul was Man's favorite guy, good looking, tall, strong, and ended up being a known as a bad king. David was Christ's servant, tho not perfect but, known as a man after God's own heart!

God and his wisdom

God is a whole lot better than us, he does things with the things everyone gets to use, in a completely different way.

  • With love he saved the world, and guides us
  1. Love in today's world, leads to some pretty harsh decision's
  2. Love also turns to hate, and divorces.
  • With power God healed and helped others
  1. With power thousands of Jews were killed on holocaust
  • Being a king he chose to be a pauper
  1. being a pauper we try to live like kings, selfishness, greed.
  • With blood God saved the world
  1. With blood we kill many in wars, and murders.

And yet he saved us.

You can add a lot more to this list, the way God does things, and the way we do them, is a very big contrast.
