Paul, a bond-servant of Christ Jesus, called as an apostle, set apart for the gospel of God, which He promised beforehand through His prophets in the holy Scriptures, concerning His Son, who was born of a descendant of David according to the flesh.
— Romans 1:1-3
In the beginning of a believer’s life, everything is Christ-centered, but over time, everything can become self-centered. As the days go by, we can depart from Christ more and more, and many other things can grow up within us.
