Today's Scripture
2 Corinthians 1:24
But that does not mean we want to dominate you by telling you how to put your faith into practice. We want to work together with you so you will be full of joy, for it is by your own faith that you stand firm.
Standing firm is not a way to be saved, but the evidence that a person is really committed to Jesus.
Endurance is not a means to earn salvation, its a by-product of a truly devoted life. Endurance grows out of commitment to Jesus Christ. In Matthew 10:22 And all nations will hate you because you are my followers. But everyone who endures to the end will be saved. Jesus predicted that His followers would be severely persecuted by those who hated what He stood for. In the midst of terrible persecutions, however, they could have hope, knowing that salvation was theirs.
Times of trial serve to sift true Christians from false or fair-weather Christians. When you are pressured to give up and turn your back on Christ, don't do it ! Remember the benefits of standing firm and continue to live for Christ !
Jesus died for me--the least I could do is live for Him !
Thank You Jesus, for Your Unfailing Love. Thank You that You came and lived and died for me. Lord, guide me to live my life all out for You, regardless of the trials and persecutions I might face along the way. May my life be a testimony of my commitment to You. In Jesus' Name, Amen..
May the Lord bless you and keep you !
Love in Christ, Our Savior and King !
