become all to all

Does your identity involve a strong attachment to your city, state and nation? What about your school and your team? Yet I see you as a citizen of my Kingdom, which is not of this world. The narrow distinctions you choose to build your identity also isolate you from others. Do you notice that those who are most effective in my service and have the greatest reach of ministry have a transcendent quality that goes beyond worldly distinctions? My apostle said he became all things to all people. Even if your descriptive traits remain unchanged I want you to hold them with a relaxed grip that you may be equipped for every good work and by any means save some.
