The
Individual and the Corporate
"Whether we were beside ourselves, it was to God; or whether we are
sober-minded it is for you" (2 Corinthians 5:13)
Being beside ourselves
is being crazy; we do this to God. But we are sober-minded for others. On one hand, this
is very personal; on the other hand, this is very corporate. Being beside ourselves is a
personal matter. Being
sober-minded is a corporate matter. For example, a person may study the Bible by himself
in the morning. He may receive some light from the Lord and unconsciously hit the table a
few times. There is nothing wrong with this. While I am standing here today, if I hit the
table when I think of a verse, would you not say that I am unsound? Paul was beside
himself before God but sober-minded before men.
