Daily Sacrifice, September 2 (6:15)
“Know ye not that your bodies are the members of Christ?”―1 Corinthians 6:15.
OUR bodies belong to God and should be devoted to His service because of His twofold claim upon them.
He created us, and He gave His Son to redeem us. Moreover, it is by His power and goodness that we are sustained and strengthened for the responsibilities He puts upon us. While unsaved men ignore His authority, we who have trusted Christ as Saviour should own, with gladness, His Lordship over us and so yield to Him all our ransomed powers. The deepest joys in life are found as we recognize His claims and present our bodies in sacrificial service.
