Christ is All, and in all

Put on therefore, as the elect of GOD, holy and beloved, bowels of mercies, kindness, humbleness of mind, meekness, longsuffering; Forbearing one another, and forgiving one another, if any man have a quarrel against any: even as Christ forgave you, so also do ye.  And above all these things put on charity, which is the bond of perfectness. And let the Peace of GOD rule in your hearts, to the which also ye are called in one body; and be ye  thankful. (Colossians 3:12-15)

Because of Jesus Christ and His finished work on the Cross of Calvary, we who are His Children are to respect, care, and forgive one another as our brothers and sisters in Christ.  And in all things we are to show and act with the Love of GOD (This love is a verb!) that is shed abroad in our hearts.  And then we will have peace, and be truly grateful for all His blessings.  And what peace is promised, the Peace of GOD, which then is lived out as peace with ourselves and peace with those around us because we are reconciled and forgiven by the manifold grace of GOD.  We who are born again truly have much to be thankful for.

But those that are not truly born again, who are playing church or trying to get to 'god' some other way, are not of Christ and cannot, despite your vain attempts, truly live in Christ and fellowship with His Church.  GOD calls you to surrender to Him on His terms, for you are at war with Him still, and will stand in your sIn at the judgment.  Then you will be part of Him, and He in you making you a new creature in Christ that can truly experience the Peace of GOD.


Whatever your need, Christ is the Answer and He calls all to Himself.  Come to our Creator, Redeemer and King in obedience today.

In Christ,
