Walking Worthy Of The Gospel

This work by Vincent concerns the manner in which Christians should walk according to the profession they make. Walk the talk, as we would say today. He expounds Ephesians 4:1, “I therefore the prisoner of the Lord beseech you, that ye walk worthy of the vocation wherewith ye are called.” This calling is a duty, and Vincent explains how Christians are to be entreated and beseeched to do their duty to walk in holiness as God has called them. This calling is both inward and outward, and only the effectually called people of God can walk in a worthy manner to glorify Jesus Christ through the power of his Spirit. This is an exciting treatise that includes the theological aspects of the "ordo salutis," or order of salvation, as well as practical solutions for the Christian in doing more than merely talking about being a Christian. This work is not a scan or facsimile, has been carefully transcribed by hand being made easy to read in modern English, and has an active table of contents for electronic versions.

The phrase that Paul often repeats has always stood out to me, "Walk in a manner worthy of your calling." What does it mean to be worthy of our calling as Christians? I heard in a sermon once, "Yes the gospel is confusing because it is free.....yet it will cost you everything." When he said this everyone laughed, because we all know it's very true. We are called as Christians to pick up our cross daily and follow Jesus. What does it mean to pick up our cross? To be willing to die, to self, to any self-preservation tendencies we have, to not care what people think about us. Think about it, if we were willing to die every day would we care what others thought about us? No. When we die to ourselves daily and stay humble before God we are then walking in a manner "worthy of our calling." Amen. God bless!

The Glory Walk is a brief work explaining to Christians what living for God's glory is all about. It is a summons to believers to live in the bigger picture of God's kingdom with God's purposes in view. We must face the reality that western culture is man-centered, that one's natural tendencies are toward self-glory, and that the grace of God is what is deeply needed to fulfill our purposes in God's created order. Christians need to be God-centered, oriented by the truth of God's Word, focused on the gospel, and completely dependent on God. We must see clearly that our God is infinitely glorious. Thus, He is worthy to receive our worship and praise. The believer's duty is to live intentionally for God's glory alone. However, duty must not carry with it the idea of drudgery. Instead, by God's grace, we delight in him and desire his glory to be known. The teachings in The Glory Walk call believers to the joyful life of exalting Christ!
