Tabernacle of David. All Things to All Men. I Corinthians 9:19-23. NIV. Verse 22says to the weak I am become weak, to win the weak. I have become all things to all men so that by all possible means I might save some. Verse 23 I do all this for the sake of the gospel, that I may share in its blessings. Paul put no difference between people rich, poor, Jew, Gentile (Everyone else), slave, free or barbarian. All have to come the same way to the Father. Salvation thru Jesus Christ. We can expound on this to say, To the white man I am a white man, to the black man I am a black man, to the Indian an Indian, to the Mexican a Mexican to the Asian an Asian. I am become all things to all men that I might save some. Because the only way to God the Father is His Son Jesus Christ drawn by the Holy Ghost. Saint John 10:1-21 NIV. Jesus tells us starting in verse 1. I tell you the truth, the man who does not enter the sheep pen by the gate, but climbs up some other way, is a thief and a robber. So we have a duty as Christians to reach all men no matter who they are or what they came out of with the gospel. God does not look on the outer man but the inner man. Yes He knows what we look like, but that is not what He looks at. We are not to accept their sin but we are to accept them into the Body of Christ as they repent of their sins and accept Christ as their Savior. If Christ accepts them then we are also to accept them without exception. Pray that I may be bold to preach the gospel and you as well. Not afraid of men but in fear of God. Truing to find some other way is self-rightouness. We are justified by the rightouness that comes from God, only thrugh His Son Jesus Christ.
