* Your reaction to verses 1-8 reveals much! (9)
- Could you careless?
- Are you confronted?
- Convicted and changing?
- Convicted and discouraged?

* God knows and cares about your motive for service! (10)
- Are you serving yourself?
- Are you serving God?

* Diligence in your walk with the Lord builds assurance of salvation (11)
- Earnest service VS half-hearted & half-baked service

*"Slow and Steady" has always marked the Christian Life (12)
