STAND OUT, NOT GIVING IN

Do you realize you were born to be an example of goodness? A lot of people are caught up with the activities of daily living that they are so unconscious of this fact. This is why it is so vital to spend some minutes everyday to meditate, which helps to build the right consciousness into your being. This is because, what you are not conscious of, you are unlikely to take action on. In this piece below, you will find out why you should strive to be an example of good things.

The most important thing in your life as a Christian is your salvation. There’s no worldly accomplishment that can compare to it. Everything else you do; all the glory in this world without your salvation is nothing. Therefore, prize it above everything else.

Our primary reason for preaching the Gospel— doing all we do to help others find their salvation—is our salvation. Sadly, there’re people who, after labouring and doing so much for the Gospel, lost their salvation because they went out of the way. They allowed some misguided people lure them away from the Word, and soon, they began to fight for things of this world and of the flesh. Your salvation is the most important thing; don’t trade it for anything.

If a man loses his salvation, he loses everything, regardless of how many conferences he may have attended or how many people he may have led to Christ. Protect your salvation. Keep it, and don’t allow anyone or anything destroy it. Don’t lead yourself astray, and don’t give anyone that opportunity. There’re hawks, wolves in the church who won’t spare the flock, and will for personal gain, do just anything to lead you in their pernicious ways.

Never forget that when you came to Christ, you came alone. God called you alone; just the same way the Bible tells us He called Abraham alone (Isaiah 51:2). That you have received Christ isn’t enough; that’s only the beginning. You must keep building yourself in Him, and growing in, and by His Word.

Now if you haven't given your life to Jesus Christ, it's time you do so. God is near you, waiting for you to accept His offer of salvation. Maybe you were a good Christian but somewhere along the line, you got derailed, well there is still hope for you. There is always hope for you as long as you have the breath of life. Give God your life. Accept the sacrifice if His Son, Jesus Christ today.
