"Wherefore
let him that thinketh he standeth take heed lest he fall." (1
Corinthians 10: 12 )
The spiritual life is something we must live carefully. We may trust that we will stand firm in God. But as long as we live in this world, suffering and problems will follow us. Therefore, today's verse advises that he who thinks he is standing in the spiritual life must be careful not to fall.
Moreover, we should not
think lightly of others. A person who is weak in spiritual life today may later
become master in spiritual life and reach a higher level than us. Similarly, a
person who excels in spiritual life today may turn out to be spiritually weak.
Therefore, he who thinks himself standing must be careful not to fall.
The devil who fights against
us in the spiritual life is watching to see when we will fall. There are many
things in today's world that are tempting spiritual people. Sin is at the
fingertips of men today. Yes, even if we accidentally touch a link on the mobile
phone, we will be bombarded with dirty porn. Therefore, he who thinks himself
standing must be careful not to fall.
That is why the apostle
Peter said, "Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil, as a
roaring lion, walketh about, seeking whom he may devour:" (1 Peter 5:
8)
This can only be done if we
are firmly dependent on the grace of the Lord Jesus Christ with faith. Ordinary
worldly people easily fall into such sufferings. This is what the apostle Peter
continues when he says, "Whom resist stedfast in
the faith, knowing that the same afflictions are accomplished in your brethren
that are in the world." (1 Peter 5: 9)
Therefore, dear ones, it is
necessary to be cautious, no matter how spiritually exalted we are today. We
should think that we are standing only because of God's grace. In the spiritual
life some may have fallen away because of unbelief. For that, if we are proud
that "I am not like that" we will also fall.
The following words of the
apostle Paul, having in mind the Jews and the Gentiles, are applicable to us also:
- "Well;
because of unbelief they were broken off, and thou standest by faith. Be not
highminded, but fear: For if God spared not the natural branches, take heed
lest he also spare not thee." (Romans 11: 20, 21)
