Bottom Line

1 Corinthians 3:5-9 (New Living Translation)

5 After all, who is Apollos? Who is Paul? We are only God’s servants through whom you believed the Good News. Each of us did the work the Lord gave us. 6 I planted the seed in your hearts, and Apollos watered it, but it was God who made it grow. 7 It’s not important who does the planting, or who does the watering. What’s important is that God makes the seed grow. 8 The one who plants and the one who waters work together with the same purpose. And both will be rewarded for their own hard work. 9 For we are both God’s workers. And you are God’s field. You are God’s building.

How did you come to know Jesus Christ? If you were to send me replies to this question, I am doubtful that all answers would be the same. Some may be similar … “I grew up in a Christian family”. Others may be very different … “A lady told me about Jesus as I sat on the park bench while our children played in the sandbox”.

 Which of these is better? It’s not important! The only thing that really matters is that you know Jesus. So big church … small church … traditional … charismatic … it doesn’t matter. What really matters is that God is growing in your heart. That IS the bottom line!
