Be careful!

Romans 16::17 “I urge you, brothers and sisters, to watch out for those who cause divisions and put obstacles in your way that are contrary to the teaching you have learned.  Keep away from them.” God warns all of us through Paul’s inspired words to beware of those who are not faithful to His Word.  There are so many philosophies that claim truth, yet are not truth.  Many are fooled with the words–but, there is one god however you worship him.  It is true–there is One God to be worshipped as He insists in His Word.  Don’t be fooled.  Search the Scripture.  Have a great weekend.

A great example

Romans 15:18a “I will not venture to speak of anything except what Christ has accomplished through me…” Our author is dedicated with purpose.  His focus is serving his Savior.  He knows life is short and is to be filled with telling others of the ultra importance of telling others the vital Gospel message.  He knew that without knowing, believing and living the truth of God’s grace an extremely sad future would be the outcome.  With God as the Director of one’s life all is well and our author, as well as our Savior, wants us all to know—all is well!

Our purpose

Romans 15:17 “Therefore I glory in Christ Jesus in my service to God.” Is this a statement you can say in regard to your own life?  We all pray that God make this the purpose of our lives also.

What if a friend said this?

Romans 15:13 “May the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace as you trust in him, so that you may overflow with hope by the power of the Holy Spirit.” Hope is defined as an absolute confident expectation of what God has promised.  God has made promises to you and me.  Those promises give us a joy and peace which override the human traits of doubt, anxiety or depression.  The Holy Spirit, which thrives within each of us is beyond amazing and overrides our human nature.  He gives us a strength and joy found nowhere else.  We thank you, God, for this fantastic gift!  May we always keep it at the forefront of our thinking.
