TAKE A STAND

The Bible gives some great advice on how we are to stand. Because each one of us will one day stand at the judgment seat of Christ (Romans 14:10) and be judged for the things done on the earth (2 Cor. 5:10), let us be found standing for the right things.
Let Us . . .

* Stand in awe of God (Psa. 33:8).
* Stand in respect of God’s word (Psa. 119:161).
* Stand in the Lord’s grace (Romans 5:2; 1 Pet. 5:12).
* Stand by faith (Rom. 11:20; 2 Cor. 1:24).
* Stand in the gospel (1 Cor. 15:1).
* Stand fast in the faith (1 Cor. 16:13).
* Stand in the liberty by which Christ has made us free (Gal. 5:1).
* Stand against the wiles of the devil (Eph. 6:11).
* Stand for truth and righteousness (Eph. 6:14).
* Stand in one spirit with the brethren (Phil. 1:27).
* Stand firm in the Lord (Phil. 4:1; 1 Thess. 3:8).
* Stand perfect and complete in all the will of God (Col. 4:12).
* Stand upon the Bible (2 Thess. 2:15).

“Watch therefore, and pray always that you may be counted worthy to escape all these things that will come to pass and to stand before the Son of Man.” (Luke 21:36)

STRIVING TO DO GOD'S THINGS GOD'S WAY
AND TO WORSHIP OUR GOD - - HIS WAY;
FORSAKING OUR OWN IDEAS,
WE SEEK HIS WILL IN ALL THINGS.

DO WE KNOW ENOUGH TO BE SAVED?

We do not have to know everything about the Bible to be saved. However John 6: 44 says “no one can come unto me unless the Father who sent me draw him and I will raise him up in the last days”. We all start out as a babe in Christ and then we must mature in the faith. Hebrews 5:13 says, “For everyone who partakes only of milk is unskilled in the word of righteousness for he is a babe.” Maturing can only come through a study of God’s word. 2nd Peter 3:18 says, “Grow in the grace and knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ". Using God’s word to grow is our spiritual food and when we do not use it we remain a babe.

There were many people in the book of Acts who heard the word and believed and wanted to do what was required to be saved. In Acts 8:13 Simon the sorcerer believed and was baptized; Acts 8:35-40 Phillip baptized the Eunuch; Acts 16:25 the Philippi jailer and his household were baptized.

If you want to be saved you must hear God’s message of salvation and believe it; be willing to repent of your sins; confess that Jesus Christ is the son of God and be baptized. Then God’s word instructs us in the things we must do after we are saved. God’s word teaches individuals how they should live. Romans 13:13 says, “Let us walk properly as in the day not in revelry and drunkenness, not in lewdness and lust, not in strife and envy.” Titus 2:12, “Teaching us that denying ungodliness and worldly lust we should live soberly, righteously and godly in this present age.” The days we have left must be spent drawing closer to God and proving our love to Him.

It was always God’s plan for man to be taught the gospel by faithful servants. “How then shall they call on Him in whom they have not believed? And how shall they believe in Him of whom they have not heard? And how shall they hear without a preacher? – Romans 10:14. Acts 1:16 says, “the gospel is God’s power unto salvation for everyone who believes.” Our life here will be lived by faith and trust in God – He will not speak to us except through His word. Hebrews 11:6 says, “Without faith it is impossible to please him for he who comes to God must believe that He is and that He is a rewarder of those who diligently seek Him".

God tests our character – it must be the real thing and not hypocritical like the Pharisee. We are all sinners and as Gene said, “We all should be working to sin less.” But, we all are going to give an account for self and not someone else. In 2nd Corinthians 5:10, we are plainly told, “For we must all appear before the judgment seat of Christ, that each one may receive the things done in the body, according to what he has done, whether good or bad.”

Have you not obeyed the gospel because you think you do not know enough about the Bible to be saved? Once you obey the conditions set forth in God’s word, your journey begins in living a pure life and growing in the grace of God The Father and Our Lord Jesus Christ.

But if you choose not to obey you will still be judged according to God’s Holy Word – John 12:48, “He who rejects Me, and does not receive My words, has that which judges him – the word that I have spoken will judge him in the last day.”
