PRINCIPLES OF FAITH

"And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free" John 8:32 (KJV)

Do you know God or just know about God? This is a crucial question to those who think they are saved, but have no relationship to that which they, or who, they profess. And these days of persecution will only get worse, while the Body is only getting diluted and weaker by following the ways of the world. 

Many are those who only follow the “glass beads” of the world, no matter what they are or how they are presented.

God is looking for a sanctified bride, and children who belong to Him. As these days grow darker they are harder to find, and even more harder to keep your own walk set on the right path in life. Too many are the distractions and the following of the “leaders” on television, etc. Why are you not a leader in your own life, family and those who you call friend? 

They should not have to look any further than that.

Truth is what sets you free and gives you wings to fly. God's truth of things, and His mirror for your life. We should not be counting on Grace, but rather living in it. You should be so full of the light of God that we shine no matter where we are, or what we may be doing. Sometimes it is the greatly stressful situations that let us shine, or just the everyday mundane things of life, however it may be, in which we need to shine.

The sobering thought is that many seek the heavenly kingdom, but do not desire to change themselves in order to enter it! What good is there for us to seek, but not DO that is required to enter therein? Why do we refuse to acknowledge the One who we so desperately seek to acknowledge us, and gain His favor of eternal life? 

And then decide to just parade around as if we have something no one else can acquire? I don't think so.

All of mankind is God's children, though many will be lost. My suggestion is NOT to be one of them! How? Know God, intimately, dearly and in truth. It is in that we gain eternity, the place where home is. Taking the path of faith is not for words (no matter how good they may sound) only, but mostly for our actions, day in and day out, to acquire it.

Be blessed, be loved and be at peace. May the light of God's presence and glory fire the brilliance of your souls. You are greatly love.
