THE NO. 1 CHRISTIAN

THE ZEAL OF THE HOUSE OF GOD...

Can the Christian faith be categorized? Who is the best or the most faithful believer? Can Christianity be weighed on a scale?

Many people think they are worthy stewards of God for doing some good works; caring for the needy, giving large sums of money to ministries or helping charitable organizations, singing in a church band or choir, offering voluntary security and other worthy services in the church, participating in the church’s missionary, evangelistic and or administrative commitments and so on and so forth.

Doing all these and many more does not necessarily qualify one to be worthy of God’s approved Kingdom service. There are people God is concerned about and approves of their services. They are known by their serious and consistent observance of the great commandment; 'You shall love the LORD your God with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your mind' says the Lord Jesus in Matthew 22:37.

True stewardship is found in loving God without compromise. Every divided loyalty is never accepted in God’s kingdom. It is a commitment that seeks to please God for a life time through eternity!

David is a good example of people who loved God. He made an only and the most costly decision in life and said;

“One thing I have desired of the LORD, That will I seek: That I may dwell in the house of the LORD All the days of my life, To behold the beauty of the LORD, And to inquire in His temple.” (Psalms 27:4)
