SELF MADE MAN

“What do you have that you did not receive? And if you did receive it, why do you boast as though you did not” (1 Corinthians 4:7)?

A certain man who had acquired 60 restaurants was purported to be a self made man. Interesting . . . seems like it would take more than that to join the exclusive club of one.

To be a self made man, there are several things you need to do:

1. Hire someone to kill you and cremate your body.
2. Have a rocket propel your ashes into the distant space.
3. From there raise yourself from the dead.
4. Create an original world with all that is needed to sustain life.
5. Create a new species of man and animals being careful not to copy what God has already done.
6. Sustain it.

Jesus Christ is the only self made man there is, who upholds all things by the word of his power. Every one else is totally dependent upon him.

Even the one who has 60 restaurants.

  1. I believe the man with the 60 restaurants has a problem in his pantry with self-rising!

    Self must be brought low that Christ may be exalted!
