1 | Why can we not just be Christians? | 1 Pet 1:2 | Ray | 151661 | ||
Hi Angel, Thank you for your encouragement. 2 Corinthians 6:1, "And working together with Him, we also urge you not to receive the grace of (God) in vain--" Hebrews 10:29, "...and has insulted the (Spirit) of grace?" 1) Hebrews 10:38, "But (My) righteous one shall live by faith;..." Romans 1:17, "For in it the righteousness of (God) is revealed from faith to faith; as it is written, "But the righteous man shall live by faith." Romans 8:37, "But in all these things we overwhelmingly conquer through (Him) who loved us." Colossians 1:28, "And we proclaim Him, admonishing every man and teaching every man with all wisdom, that we may present every man complete in (Christ)." From the heart, Ray |

2 | Why can we not just be Christians? | 1 Pet 1:2 | JCrichton | 151666 | ||
Hi, Ray! You've hit on another excellent (more outstanding) passage: Colossians 1:28! There is a goal for the Believer (as in the Old Testament) to be perfect/ed in Christ Jesus... as the Holy Spirit works everything for the edification of the Body... Believe in Christ, yes!... is is through Faith that we are brought into the fold... but as our temporal existence, our spiritual existence deepens and growth in the knowledge and existence of God... we are commanded by Paul to go past the initiation (preaching, believing, baptism) and to embrace all that is God (including abedience to His Will)! (1 Corinthians 13:11-12; Ephesians 4:30 thru 5:21; Hebrews 6:1-6). God Bless! Angel |
