‘True Selflessness.’
1 Corinthians 10:33.
a) Apostle Paul wisely was seeking the approval of all people.
b) He did not think about what would be good for himself.
c) He thought about what would be good for many people.
d) So that they might be Saved.
(In this QT Apostle Paul gives me a good picture of True Selflessness)

‘Do Not Be As The Pharisees.’
Mark 7:1-13.
a) Mark 7:1. They came to Jesus but with the wrong motives.
b) Mark 7:2-5. They accused Jesus’ Disciples of being unclean.
c) Mark 7:6-9. Jesus made these accusations against the Pharisees:-
1- They honoured God with their lips, but their hearts were far from Him.
2- Their worship was pointless.
3- They only follow rules made by men.
4- They neglected the Commandments of God to follow human traditions.
d) Mark 7:10-12. They broke the relationships between parents and children.
e) Mark 7:13. They rejected the Authority of God’s Word.
(This Second one clearly warns me: Do Not Be As The Pharisees)

Chris.
God wants our hearts. If we really give Him our hearts then we can freely grow in the Lord and serve Him. God also wants our bodies as a living sacrifice then we can know what His Will is for our lives.
