Key idea: A life centered on Messiah means a life of sincere and pure devotion to Messiah.
A life of sincere and pure devotion consists of two characteristics:
1. A sincere and pure devotion enables us to have a unique involvement with the world (vv. 25-31)
- We have a unique perspective on relationships (vv. 25-28)
- We have a unique window of opportunity (vv. 29-31)
2. A sincere and pure devotion frees us for unhindered service to the Lord (vv. 32-40)
