; and them which suffer adversity, as being yourselves also in the body. Marriage is honourable in all, and the bed undefiled: but whoremongers and adulterers GOD will judge. Let your conversation be without covetousness; and be content with such things as Remember them that are in bonds, as bound with themye have: for He hath said, I will never leave thee, nor forsake thee. So that we may boldly say, The Lord is my helper, and I will not fear what man shall do unto me. (Heb 13:3-6)
We are to live in obedience to His Word, making a clear and distinct difference between those of us who are in Christ, and those who are of this lost and dying world. If the world can't tell the difference how can they see their need of Him. We are to shine in the darkness, and be salt in this world that they might see, and be thirsty for the living water that only GOD provides.
Until the day Jesus Christ comes back, first for His own, and then to judge this earth and rule and reign His millennial Kingdom, we are to go and tell all who will hear of the love, mercy, and grace of our Lord Jesus Christ. But, they must see it make a difference in the life we now life for Christ. We are to be dead to ourselves, and alive in Christ, and then when we have earned the right to be heard we can share what GOD is doing in us and the message of Hope and Salvation that is the Good News of Jesus Christ.
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 Him that is real and personal. Believe His Word and trust His sacrifice in your place for forgiveness, and you will be born again. 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. Receive Him by faith in His finished and perfect work on the Cross of Calvary for Salvation today.
In Christ,
