9 This is a faithful <pistos>
saying <logos> and <kai> worthy <axios>
of all <pas> acceptation. <apodoche>KJV-Interlinear
9 It is a trustworthy statement
deserving full acceptance. NASB
Paul follows verse
eight with this statement, This is a self evident truth.
The fact that emphasis
on the spiritual life is more profitable and more beneficial, than any emphasis
on the physical body should be keenly obvious to everyone.
The physical side of
life will last only as long as your lifespan, and then is ends.
The spiritual side of
life runs concurrently with your physical life, but continues on into the next
life and will run forever, without ever ending.That means for all of eternity.
So, this is a short
study today, because the emphasis is on the importance of your spiritual
life.To live your life now, with little
or no attention paid to your spiritual life, is the decision of a fool.
Your destiny exists in eternity,
and not in this present life.Whatever it is that you do in this life (work, school, play, etc.),
is merely filling the role of logistical support for your life now, such that
you will have the means to spend time on your spiritual life.
Concurrent with your
physical life, you have the opportunity to learn fundamental principles of
life, such as responsibility, accountability, honesty, and so forth.
Most folks
unfortunately place emphasis on their current life, and ignore their spiritual
life. They pursue their education, their work, their accumulation of wealth or hobbies
or whatever, and they give little or no attention to their spiritual life.And those who do have some semblance of a
spiritual life, generally make only a courteous
gesture toward their spiritual life when it is convenient.And unfortunately their spiritual life is
nothing more than a pretense.
What God has waiting
for each person, is a vast blessing and reward package for eternity, but in
order to receive it, you have to advance to spiritual maturity.
Unlike in this world
where vary few can achieve great wealth, in eternity everyone has the
opportunity to receive vast wealth, beyond ones wildest dreams, beyond ones
imagination.And it is there just for
the taking, so to speak.
Wouldn t you love to be
a multi-billionaire or multi-trillionaire now?Well, most folks certainly would not turn down that paycheck.However, by ignoring the spiritual life, you
are doing just that.
Therefore, place
emphasis on your spiritual growth to maturity, do not ignore it, and your life
now, and especially in the next life, you will be very glad you did.
