THE WORD THAT HOLDS

The Bible is a harbor where I can drop down my anchor, feeling certain that it will hold.  Here is a place where I can find sure footing; and, by the grace of God, from this confidence I shall never be moved. -Spurgeon

Acts 19:20, So mightily grew the word of God and prevailed.

The Word of God is a gift to this world. For the lost, dying, hurting sinner in need of salvation, it is the light to the Truth of salvation. For the sinner that is saved and on their way to Heaven, it is the source of strength. The Word of God is what gives hope and help in this world! Without it, we would spend eternity in Hell and a life void of hope.

I am glad that God gives each and every individual the Word that holds. Has the Word of God found a lodging place in your heart? If not, it can today!

SECURED TIL DEATH OR RAPTURE

I believe a man may be as vile as hell itself one moment and be saved the next. - D.L. Moody

Ephesians 4:30, And grieve not the holy Spirit of God, whereby ye are sealed unto the day of redemption.

            Not only does the Spirit indwell the saved man, He also seals the saved man until the day of redemption. We are eternally secure in Jesus because the Spirit dwells within us. This security brings about a confidence in Jesus Christ. It gives us a boldness to be a witness for Him. Many Christians struggle with being a witness because they do not have the assurance of their salvation. Many don’t have that assurance because they neglect their personal Bible reading. Vanhetloo states, “If we believe that this is the message of God for us, we will read this message.” It is imperative for us to have that assurance and we will get it when we get into the Scriptures.
