The Fight for Wisdom - 1 Corinthians 9.19-27 Jobey McGinty As we enter into the world of those around us, we should aim to bring both light and heat. Light with no heat will simply bring condemnation, but heat with no light will bring a soft sentimentalism that gives no power (or reason) to change. In other words, we are to speak the truth, but speak it in love. One without the other is not enough.
