]]> Comment on What Is Man’s Lot? by timglass http://laylearner.wordpress.com/2006/07/02/what-is-mans-lot/#comment-2 timglass Wed, 12 Jul 2006 20:42:52 +0000 https://laylearner.wordpress.com/2006/07/02/what-is-mans-lot/#comment-2 Lots of thought provoking questions in a row! Wow! I would say, that 'if we have no transactional relationship with God', that the only purpose we serve is ourselves. The whole idea of covenant is the giving of one's self. God has done His part, have we? If we don't respond to His call, no transaction or covenant is made; thus we are no good to God and we have no use for Him. That would certianly limit our concern for our actions affectting others and our piety would be nothing more than our own self-righteousness, covering up our unbelief (or indifference). I appreciate your insight to this scripture, and the questions you posed. Lots of thought provoking questions in a row! Wow!
