Matthew 16:21-28. Rev. Matheson's sermon was entitled, "Self -hood, Other -hood, Sister and Brother -hood". Jeremiah starts off lamenting about the position God has placed him in - "poor me" - you have caused me to suffer. God directs Jeremiah's thoughts to the plight of others. Romans directs the thoughts of the Christians in Rome who worry about local church issues to note that there is an entire world in need of ministry - in need of community out there - beyond the walls of Rome. Think of the Roman Empire: the world had to direct taxes that direction; Paul demands a renewal; Rome is to minister to needs of the world.
