Stand fast in the Lord my dearly beloved

Rejoice in the Lord alway: and again I say, Rejoice. Let your moderation be known unto all men. The Lord is at hand. Be careful for nothing; but in every thing by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known unto GOD. And the peace of GOD, which passeth all understanding, shall keep your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus. Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are honest, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things are of good report; if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise, think on these things. (Php 4:4-8)
         Our Christian walk should be joyful for the joy of the Lord is our strength. It should not be frivolous, or consist of inappropriate foolish jesting, or even stern religiousity and formality, for we are to have the mind of Christ from His Word, and do all things for His purposes and for His Glory. We are to take all our cares to Him, for He cares for us, and leave them at the Throne of mercy, that we might find grace to help in time of need. We are to rest in Him, for His burden is light and His yoke is easy, and He is our Sabbath, even while we work and labour in the Lord. All the while keeping our hearts and minds focused on the good things which GOD has blessed us with, and looking to Him and His great Salvation which He paid for with His finished and perfect work on the Cross of Calvary and we receive by our repentance and faith in Him.

        All things we hear and see must be filtered through the lens of His Word, and understood not from this world and its temporary condition, but in the light of eternity. GOD's Word is True, every Word is pure, His Law is perfect and His statutes are right. Our Lord, who ever lives to make intercession for His saints, was and is without sIn or fault, the righteous sacrifice for our sIn, and we are to look to Him who is our virtue and righteousness, and the author and finisher of our faith. He created all things, perfect and mature, now marred by sin and the curse, and has redeemed those that repent and surrender to Him on His terms by faith unto Himself, and will one day restore all things and glorify those who are in Him. The Son of GOD who is GOD the Son, our Lord, Saviour, Creator and King, will soon return for His own to take us Home with Him.

         Until that day, we are to be of one mind and one heart with Him through the unity of the Spirit, one body on mission for His purposes, His ways, and His Glory. We are His ambassadors, representing the Kingdom and reaching others for Him. We are to minister to those who are hurting, not shooting the wounded, nor rejecting those that are without because they are not of us, but bringing all who will come into the glorious Liberty of the children of GOD. We are to love one another, not just in word, but in deed, as Christ loved us and gave Himself for us, we are to give our lives for the brethren. We are to disciple one another in the Word, that we may all grow in Him, and be conformed to the image of His dear Son, until we all come into the full measure of our Lord and Saviour, Jesus Christ. To Him be glory both now and for ever. We are to take His Gospel of reconciliation through His blood to this lost and dying world, that all may hear His Word and repent, putting their faith in the Good News of Jesus Christ and believing in Him for eternal life in His Name.

          For GOD is not willing that any should perish, but that all would come to repentance and the knowledge of the Truth. Jesus loves you and wants to establish a covenant relationship with you that is real and personal. Surrender to Him on His terms and He will give you a brand new life of discipleship and fellowship with Him that is abundant and everlasting. GOD calls you to trust Him and what He has already done for you to pay your sIn debt. He has provided the only way of reconciliation with GOD with forgiveness and Salvation through Jesus Christ, the Son of GOD who is GOD the Son, to give you a new life in Christ. Turn away from yourself and your sIn and turn to Him alone for eternal Life, now and always.

In Christ,
Jefferson Sweet
