Paul’s final warning about church divisions and pride by reminding us all we obtain is by the grace of God, so how can we boast about what we had no part in obtaining?
Additionally, what can we learn about stewardship from the financial meltdown in September 2008 of AIG, Fannie Fae and Freddie Mac, and Lehman — as well as previous collapses of Enron and MCI? Since we’re stewards for God, it’s vital we learn lessons about ethics, and Paul provides the lesson.
Paul also reminds us service for God is tough, and not to quit.
