1 Cor 8:6 Yet for us there is one God, the Father, from whom are all things & for whom we exist, & one Lord, Jesus Christ, through whom are all things & through whom we exist. Eph 1:3 Blessed be the God & Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us in Christ with every spiritual blessing in the heavenly places. 1Peter 1:3 Blessed be the God & Father of our Lord Jesus Christ! According to his great mercy, he has caused us to be born again to a living hope through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead. Peter 1:1 To those who have been allotted faith equally precious as ours in the righteousness of our God & Savior, Jesus Christ. 1Peter 1:6-7 “In this you greatly rejoice, though now for a little while you may have had to suffer grief in various trials so that the authenticity of your faith— more precious than gold, which perishes even though refined by fire— may result in praise, glory, & honor at the revelation of Jesus Christ.” — Our faith tried by fire is more precious than gold! For we only see & believe by faith! Faith is the one commodity that has been given to us by God! It is the one commodity that we should work to increase! —Rom 10:17 So faith comes from hearing, & hearing through the word of Christ. Luke 17:5 The apostles said to the Lord, “Increase our faith”. — So we should be working, striving to increase our faith. It is worth more than gold! Love Mel
