Self Denial.... Thursday WIDDG Devotion


Self Denial, quite possibly one of the most rejected concepts in Christianity. Also one of the most misunderstood. We're not talking about being a monk. We're not talking about equating holiness to a life of denying your self any pleasure and walking around with an expressionless face. But what does it mean? Study the following verses.........


The kingdom of heaven is like treasure hidden in a field, which a man found and covered up. Then in his joy he goes and sells all that he has and buys that field. Matthew 13:44


Summarize what this verse says about self denial. Use scriture as much as possible.
What does this verse teach us about self-denial in the life of a Christian?
