The saga of "The Secret of GOD", as shown in the 1Corinthians 7:17; with a renewed mind and our victory as foretold.

GOD deals uniquely with each one of us, no matter how well we are connected to any of many of this worlds false deceptive systems. Lets see what Paul has to say about this here. We shall the use of the word "call" in many forms but it holds on to its one meaning in its usage.


1Corinthians 7:17-20 "But as God hath distributed to every man, as the Lord hath called every one, so let him walk. And so ordain I in all churches. Is any man called[G2564] being circumcised? let him not become uncircumcised. Is any called[G2564] in uncircumcision? let him not be circumcised. Circumcision is nothing, and uncircumcision is nothing, but the keeping of the commandments of God. Let every man abide in the same calling wherein he was called." (KJV)

1Corinthians 7:17-20 "Only let each person lead the life that the Lord has assigned to him, and to which God has called[G2564] him. This is my rule in all the churches. Was anyone at the time of his call[G2564] already circumcised? Let him not seek to remove the marks of circumcision. Was anyone at the time of his call uncircumcised? Let him not seek circumcision. For neither circumcision counts for anything nor uncircumcision, but keeping the commandments of God. Each one should remain in the condition in which he was called." (ESV)

1Corinthians 7:17-20 "GOD deals with each one of us uniquely and individually and connected with us regardless of our circumstances. He defines and completes your life, not your partner or lack of one! I am not just saying this in response to your questions about your specific challenges; I am equally persuaded about this in principle in all the churches. Circumcision or the lack of it does not [1, G2564]define you! In Christ your Jewish or Gentile heritage is irrelevant and can never again [1, G2564]label you. (The word, [1, G2564] kaleo, means to identify by name; to surname.) You couldn't keep the commandments anyway, whether you were circumcised or not! (So if circumcision did not contribute anything while you were seeking to be justified under the Law, how can it possibly now advance you in your understanding of righteousness by faith? Is the real question!) You are not what your career or job description says you are." (The Mirror)

I think that I shall keep this short and sweet because Paul gets into our being a slave in the next paragraph. This we shall look at next time the LORD willing. May the LORD bless you highly in your endeavors to please Him Who Is.
