Be thou faithful unto death, and I will give thee the crown of life
Quoting: Mental Case And no "mark" for us - even if we starve. We win - we read to the end of the Book and WE WIN!
Careful Pooka!
Only God knows who are his sheep.
Remember. the gnashing of teeth!
I may claim God.......but none of it matters, unless He claims, that I am for Him too.
We are all sinners. Some strive to be Saints, but only God can determine, if we actually are.
Don't expect Jesus to do it all for you, me, or anyone.
In His own words, HE says to take up our own cross and follow after Him.Remember. Peter. The cock crowed! He denied being an associate of Christ THREE TIMES, for fear of his life!
Still, Jesus loves him, telling him to show others the way to the truth. Jesus reminds Peter of the obligation to His ministry.
The message from all of that, is this;
Redemption is possible, even for Christ's closest. It is never to late to admit you were wrong. & Jesus is right and cannot tell a lie. He left, and sent the Spirit of Truth to testify as much.
