We Serve Because We Are Saved

You were saved to serve God. The Bible says, “It is he who saved us and chose us for his holy work not because we deserved it but because that was his plan” (2 Timothy 1:9a TLB).

God redeemed you so you could do his “holy work.” You’re not saved by service, but you are saved for service. In God’s Kingdom, you have a place, a purpose, a role, and a function to fulfill. This gives your life great significance and value.

It cost Jesus his own life to purchase your salvation. The Bible reminds us, “God paid a great price for you. So use your body to honor God” (1 Corinthians 6:20 CEV).

We don’t serve God out of guilt or fear or even duty but out of joy and deep gratitude for what he’s done for us. We owe him our lives. Through salvation our past has been forgiven, our present is given meaning, and our future is secured. In light of these incredible benefits Paul concluded, “Because of God’s great mercy …. Offer yourselves as a living sacrifice to God, dedicated to his service” (Romans 12:1a TEV).

The apostle John taught that our loving service to others shows that we are truly saved. He said, “Our love for each other proves that we have gone from death to life” (1 John 3:14 CEV).

If you have no love for others, no desire to serve others, and you’re only concerned about your needs, you should question whether Christ is really in your life. A saved heart is one that wants to serve

Hope for Resurrection

When people harm Jesus, he does not retaliate or try to get even. Instead, he loves and forgives. Even when soldiers are humiliating and killing him, Jesus is compassionate toward them: “Father, forgive them for they don’t know what they do” (Luke 23:34). Can you imagine loving and praying for your opposers even as they hurt and kill you?

How can Jesus be so weak when he’s supposed to be powerful? Even more, how can he ask us to be vulnerable like him? Wouldn’t we be humiliated or even put to death, like him?

Jesus believes that death is part of his human story—not the end of his human life. He trusts God to preserve his life and restore it, even through suffering and death. Three days after his burial, Jesus is restored to new life. Resurrection!

Jesus promises that, as his brothers and sisters, we will eventually experience his same resurrection. Brutal and dark as it is, death does not defeat the goodness and light of life that God creates.

So we stop fearing death. We stop hoarding resources and start sharing generously. We care for and pray for our opposers rather than trying to get even. We trust the power of God’s patient love and learn to live peacefully with one another.

Our hope is not focused on ways we can prevent death. Instead, we embrace the death that all of us, including Jesus, have to experience. And we do so with living hope in the resurrected, living Christ Jesus—our friend
