"As God has distributed to each one..."
Text: 1 Corinthians 7:17
A DIFFERENT PERSPECTIVE
Paul gave a new and different perspective to the subject of marriage. This perspective if understood well, could be applied to more than just the question of marriage or singlehood.
“But as God has distributed to each one, as the Lord
has called each one, so let him walk. And so I ordain
in all the churches. Was anyone called while circumcised?
Let him not become uncircumcised. Was anyone called
while uncircumcised? Let him not be circumcised.
Circumcision is nothing and uncircumcision is nothing,
but keeping the commandments of God is what matters.”
1 Corinthians 7:17-19
