“And we know that all things work together for good to those who Love GOD, to those who are the called according to His Purpose. For whom He foreknew, He also predestined to be conformed to the image of His Son, that He might be The Firstborn among many brethren. Moreover whom He predestined, these He also Called; whom He Called, these He also Justified, these He also Glorified.” Romans 8:28-30

“But you shall receive Power when The HOLY SPIRIT has come upon you; and you shall be Witnesses to Me in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the end of the earth.” Acts 1:8

We start with the knowledge of our sinful condition and GOD’s Love for Salvation so we Repent. Then we learn that GOD has a plan for our life and that He expects us to obey it. Then GOD’s HOLY SPIRIT of whom we have heard so much becomes real to us so that we begin to listen to Him and study GOD’s Word. Now we must become like CHRIST and Do what The Father gives us to do, which will include persecution, testing, trials, tribulation and temptation. JESUS said, “Do not think I have come to bring Peace on the earth. I did not come to bring Peace but a Sword…And he who does not take his cross and follow Me is not worthy of Me. He who finds his life will lose it, and he who loses his life for My sake will find it.” Matthew 10:34, 38-39; study verses 16-39. GOD Bless, Bob & Charlene
