2 Corinthians 5:1-10 “An Eternal Perspective” 07/16/2023
This language sounds strange to us because motivational speakers will say things like:
“Live your best life now,” “live life to its fullest,” “live it up,” “enjoy life.”
The world we live in is all about living life to its fullest…living your best life now.
And in ancient times they had a similar philosophy…Greece and Rome were very hedonistic societies…
Where “eat drink and be merry, for tomorrow you may die,” was their mantra…
It was their way of saying “live your best life now.”
But not the saints…they were more focused on the eternal…the things they could not see…than the temporal…the things all around them.
The first century saints and many that followed lived with the expectation that they could be killed for their faith at any time.
So, they set their minds more on the things above than they did earthly things. (Col. 3:2)
Instead of “live your best life now,” they wanted to live their life for Christ…in a way that pleased Him.
