Most of us know about fighting FOR our rights, but this is a vital message about fighting OFF our rights.
"Get up, stand up, stand up for your rights. Get up, stand up, don't give up the fight." That was the attitude of Bob Dylan back in 1973, and since then generations have grown up with the idea that our rights are something non-negotiable!
That makes Paul's message to the Corinthians in this passage an urgent corrective for our generation!
The Corinthian Christians had all sorts of problems connected with their desire to stand on their rights, and that unwillingness to be OTHER-focused!
When faced with a choice between using our rights and giving them up for the sake of other weak Christians, there can be a huge inner struggle!
The reality is that if you're going to be other-focused, you'll need sometimes to fight off your rights!
Grab your bible and prepare to be challenged by this urgent message in which Paul outlines two reasons why he sacrificed his own rights for the sake of others.
