God Gives Us The Holy Spirit!

One of the greatest privileges we have been given in the gospel is that when we believe in our Lord Jesus Christ, He gives to us what the Father promised - God, the Holy Spirit. 

What a blessed gift. That our earthen vessels can contain this beautiful treasure - we being filled with God and clothed with His power. 

It is a promise we should never let go of. A promise we should long for always. God is faithful. He is gracious. If earthly fathers know how to give good gifts to their children, will our Heavenly Father hold back the Holy Spirit when we ask Him?

Believe in Christ Jesus!

When we put our complete faith, our life's choices and all our decisions into the hands of Jesus Christ we can be assured that we are resting in the perfect will of God; we can be certain of our hope to eternal life; fully assured that on the last day we shall be raised to heaven.

Believe even when you don't see

Unbelief and Disobedience Leads to God's Wrath

Proud, self-centered and fallen as man is, he seldom can see that he owes his existence to his Maker, the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ. 

By unbelief and disobedience we reject Him and His purpose. It amounts to telling our Creator, from whom we have breath and by whom we are sustained, "I don't need you."

While God in His infinite mercy and patience permits this choice we make, as long as we are on earth, His sovereign nature that has authority over all creation will not permit it on the Day of Judgement when each will be recompensed according to what he has done. 

At judgement, our unbelief and disobedience which is tantamount to rejection of God, His purpose and His love invites His wrath.

Believe in God and in His Son, Jesus Christ whom He sent for our salvation. He promises us eternal life and every blessing in the heavenly places. The Holy Spirit is ever present to help, strengthen and guide us.  

Now or Later? Choose

Believing in Christ Jesus, His work on the cross and the cleansing power of His blood frees us from sin and makes us righteous.

We then have each day of our life on earth to judge ourselves in the light of God's Word, making choices that please Him; choices that will keep us righteous and holy.

He is with us to help. His grace is sufficient for us.

So let us judge ourselves on this earth. On the day of judgement when every one will give an account for what he has done, we will not be judged.
