WE ARE SAVED TO SERVE

We are saved to serve.
We are empowered to serve.
And we are blessed to serve.

Christians do not have an advantage over other people.
Our commitment to Christ simply puts us in a position to serve other people.
Being a Christian does not make us special people with special privileges or status in our social standing.

"God didn't claim special privileges. Instead, he lived a selfless, obedient life..." (Philippines 2:5-11)

"But the parent will die for what the parent did, for the sins of -- oppressing the weak, robbing brothers and sisters, doing what is dead wrong in the community" (Ezekiel 18:18  Message).
