" BEING FAITHFUL "

Well here we are, another week has crept up upon us again.

Are you " BEING FAITHFUL? " Are you Faithful in the little things? First things first " The Lord Preserves The Faithful." All who believe in the Lord Jesus will be considered blameless when Jesus Christ returns.

Now, if you have Faith in Christ Jesus, even if it is weak, you are and will be saved." Faithful is He who calls you, and He also will bring it to pass " (1 Thess 5:20). He considered me faithful, putting me into service. As members in the Body of Christ we are called to do something positive in His Name.

Now consider this: people can feel so guilt-ridden by their past that they think God could never forgive and accept them. Now consider Paul's past. He scoffed at the teachings of Jesus (" Blasphemer ") and hunted down and murdered God's people (" A persecutor and a violent aggressor ") before coming to faith in Christ. God forgave Paul and used Paul mightily for His Kingdom. No matter how shameful your past, God also can forgive and use you.

LAST POINT: From 2 Timothy 2:2 " The things which you have heard from me in the presence of many witnesses, entrust these to faithful men who will be able to teach others also." Now, if the Body of Christ were to consistently follow this advice, I believe that it would expand exponentially as well-taught believers would teach others and commission them, in turn, to teach still others.

Disciples need to be equipped to pass on their faith; our work is not done until new believers are able to make disciples of others. Are you hearing me? Now let's get it done.

Until Next Time...
Jim
