Steps to Christ Chapter 9 - TheWork and the Life

Chapter 9, "The Work and the Life," emphasizes that God is the source of life, light, and joy, and that these blessings flow out to others through those who have God's life in their hearts. It explains that a true follower of Christ will be ready to make sacrifices so that others may know Jesus, and that they will seek to improve the world around them. This desire to share the good news of Jesus is a natural outcome of a converted soul. The chapter also notes that efforts to bless others will, in turn, bless the giver, bringing them closer to God and allowing them to share in the spiritual uplifting of unselfish service. Furthermore, it suggests that by working for God, one will feel a need for a deeper understanding of divine things, which will lead to a strengthened faith and a closer relationship with God. Finally, it emphasizes that every follower of Christ should conduct their life in such a way that it glorifies God, no matter their profession or social status.
