I Corinthians II
…so that, as it is written, “Let the one who boasts, boast in the Lord.” (I Corinthians 1:31 ESV)
Boasting
Those who understand ‘boasting in the Lord” are not really more pious, or religious, or Godly.
Rather, those who “boast in the Lord” are more practical, realistic, and aware of reality.
The Lord is the strength of a Christian. The Lord is the motivator for a Christian. The Lord is the power behind a Christian. The Lord is in charge of a Christian. The Lord is the source of hope, joy, and love for a Christian.
We boast in Him because we know what He does through us, around us, and in spite of us.
Any other boasting is silly, really.
