Today’s Lesson: Vindication for Writing
Scripture: Romans 15:17–21

Description:
If Paul engages in boasting, it is not in himself that he glories, but in Christ Jesus. And it is not in his accomplishments but in what God has done through him as a minister to the Gentiles. A humble servant of Christ does not engage in unseemly boasting, but rather he is conscious of the fact that God is using him to accomplish His purposes. Any feeling of pride is tempered by the realization that he is nothing in himself, that he has nothing except what he has received, and that he can do nothing for Christ except by the power of the Holy Spirit.
