When everyone else is choosing otherwise . . .

As you have therefore received Christ Jesus the Lord, so walk in Him, rooted and built up in Him and established in the faith, as you have been taught, abounding in it with thanksgiving. Beware, lest anyone cheat you through philosophy and empty deceit, according to the tradition of men, according to the basic principles of the world, and not according to Christ. For IN HIM dwells all fullness of the Godhead bodily, and you are COMPLETE in Him, Who is the Head of all principality and power.(Colossians 2:6-10


I am so thankful for the foundation that I have been given from sound biblical principles. So grateful that the Lord placed me in a fundamentally strong church with a pastor that lives out the doctrines of the bible and even despite personal differences at times, bases every decision upon these truths. 


There is no room for false doctrines, worldly philosophies, or the ever-changing traditions of men! I am complete in Him as Paul writes.  God has the final say no matter the struggles we go through here on earth. 


As the world grows darker and even more entrapped and beguiled by Satan, those of us who stand upon Godly principles will become more and more tormented and tested. STAND. . . . STAND . . . . STAND on the foundation laid out in His Word. 


Be THANKFUL He is soon to return and reward those who await His appearing. (2 Timothy 4:8)
