Doing God’s Work in Christ’s Spirit

"Do ALL in the name of the Lord Jesus." That is to say, there should be the temper and spirit of Christ in our service. The gentleness of Christ can never be wielded with carnal severity as a handle; the severity of Christ can never be exercised with a cold and critical temper as its medium. Christ's work must be done with Christ's spirit, or it goes for naught. Just as we are warned against holding the truth in unrighteousness, so we are to beware of doing God's work in an unsanctified spirit.—Selected.
