1 Tim 6:12 (KJV) Fight the good fight of faith, lay hold on eternal life, whereunto thou art also called, & hast professed a good profession before many witnesses. Jude 1:3 Beloved, when I gave all diligence to write unto you of the common salvation, it was needful for me to write unto you, & exhort you that ye should earnestly CONTEND for the faith which was once delivered unto the saints. Prov 3:18 She is a tree of life to them that LAY HOLD upon her: & happy is every one that retaineth her. — We are called to FIGHT the good fight of faith, & to LAY HOLD! Are you willing to STAND? Are you willing to SIEZE & RETAIN or will you fold? Life is not easy & it is not for sissies! We must be willing to STAND for Him or we will fall for everything! Are you willing to take the road less traveled or will you fall for the easy road? It is worth pondering! Love Mel
Three Signs You Are a True Believer
From Bill— Three signs that a believer is going to heaven. Eph 2:8-9. Salvation is a gift. A gift must be received. Then Our faith is in the finished work of Christ. He is the Way, the Truth and the Life. So the first evidence is that You willingly give your life to Christ! —Then a transformation takes place & signs follow. —You over time become a servant of Christ, you want to obey, make Him Lord & top priority. By the way, Servants of Christ go to heaven! —Finally a peaceful heart. —Jn 14. This world is not your home. Let not your heart be troubled. Let the peace of God rule over you. Rev 21: 3 I heard a loud voice from the throne saying, “Behold, the dwelling place of God is with man. He will dwell with them, & they will be his people, & God himself will be with them as their God. So… You give your life to Christ & make Him Lord. You want to obey Him & make Him top priority AND you experience peace in your heart because you know you belong to Him. — Love Mel
