“You need to be really careful who you give your ear to because Jezebels come in normal names wrapped in the understanding of a friend… But hang in there and do not sacrifice your spiritual condition! If we listen and return to Christ and we refuse to compromise, we get Jesus!!

“The mission of Jesus Christ was not to make you feel comfortable on Sunday. It was that you would be saved & that you would tell other lost people. There are churches dying every day that would have you walk yourself into oblivion not knowing Jesus, but this ain’t the place!”

Jesus sees us from every angle: from Him you cannot hide. You may present what looks good to the world, yet be dead inside. Don’t be like the Church at Sardis — complacent & self-content! The Enemy’ll sneak & climb over your high wall. Be on guard & repent, or your life is spent.

“When you stand before Jesus Christ, you need to be able to say that thru the pain, thru the sweat, thru the blood, thru the tears, thru the ups & downs, I loved you, Jesus, & I NEVER gave up the promises You gave me by keeping the promises I made you.”Complete what you started.

Keep an eye on your spiritual condition, so it stays vibrant & alive. Don’t be a dead man walking, lulled into complacency, thinking you will thrive. The consequences? Stay pure & overcome; you’ll walk w/ Him in white. Dissent, your name is blotted out, as if you’re out of sight.

Let us be like the Church at Philadelphia, which though was small, was mighty. “Jesus, may we be pillars, may we not run, may we not back down, may we be ready….Come, Lord Jesus, come. Even so, come.” — Phillip Martin

Jesus helped the fraught, taught the disciples to follow His ways. Nic & Joe, both Hebrew elite, saw the marvel in the man. This Jesus intrigued & moved them — He was more than unique! In life, they followed Him in the shadows. But in death, they stepped up & buried Him hallowed.

God drove the sin-stained couple out: in the Garden they couldn’t stay. He covered, then banished them & did so w/o delay. He loved them too much to let them stay in a state that was not their due. Jesus came to redeem one & all. Now believers live like before the fall;it’s true!

God’s plan for salvation is eternal; His means of hope’s always been! We’ve only to look to Adam & Eve; in the Garden man launched the first sin.Then God’s one & only came to redeem. His own precious blood He shed. The snake was crushed, none were judged; salvation undoes dead.

“We have come to a place in society where we have so watered down salvation that you can can come by on a Sunday morning and dip your finger in or call a number on the screen and think you’re good. We haven’t sold people salvation; we’ve sold people destinations…” Phillip Martin

Not all who follow believe, and not all who believe are saved. Is your salvation based on signs, wonders, rules? Do you recognize yourself as depraved? Jesus will not lower His standard or beckon you to stay. Examine yourself; grow. Is there proof of faith? Oh, narrow is the way.

Don’t be hard-hearted or nurture contempt. Holding onto the bad keeps you from doing something good!The world seeks those willing to risk everything to fulfill their divine purpose, to be the best version of themselves for Him. Let’s not waste another day! Love without hypocrisy.

“You don’t have to worry about trouble finding you; it already has. It’s just a matter of when it reveals itself. It’s not that trouble times will go away, but whatever/whoever is squeezing you, Jesus has already overcome, so you can walk in peace thru tribulations. Walk boldly.”

When you’re stuck in discouragement or have become indifferent, you can lose your courage and grow cold, so how do we get it back? Change the channel; cling to Jesus! Surrender! Surround yourself with encouragers; you will gain His peace, and your confidence will not be in lack!

ASK your Father in Heaven and it will be given to you; SEEK and you will find; KNOCK and the door will be opened to you. For everyone who asks receives; the one who seeks finds; to the one who knocks, the door will be opened. Be persistent and faithful; Jesus loves you so much!
