Today’s Lesson: The Need of the Whole World.
I am debtor. Paul views himself as a
debtor to the whole world. He has been placed in debt by the love of Jesus
Christ. “For the love of Christ compels
us…” (II Cor. 5:14). Paul’s concept of Christian service is that each
believer is deeply in debt. It is probably this same concept that inspired
Isaac Watts to pen the words of the hymn “At the Cross” when he said, “But
drops of grief can ne’er repay the debt of love I owe. Here, Lord, I give
myself away, ’tis all that I can do.” Paul felt he had a responsibility to give
nothing less than himself to the spreading of the gospel by which he was saved.
