If someone should ask -  Who is God?  -  By: Robert A. Searles
      If someone should ask, who is God? "God is a spirit and they that worship him must worship him in spirit and in truth." John 4:24.
      God is an infinite, eternal being. the divine source of all things. He is the creator of the universe and everything in it. In the beginning, (which excludes the beginning of God, for he had no beginning and has no end), God said let there be, and it was so.
      " In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth. And the earth was without form, and void; and darkness was upon the face of the deep. And the spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters. And God said, let there be light: and there was light. And God saw the light, that it was good: and God called the light day, and the darkness he called night. And the evening and the morning were the first day." Genesis 1: 1-5.
      God is a person, and though he is invisible, he is the ultimate personality. God is love, there could be no love for one another upon earth, except that God has extended his attribute of love toward us. God is the supreme intelligence. God knows. There could be no knowledge of anything except that God has imputed that knowledge from himself to mankind.
       God sees all things, and God hears all things, and God is concerned and cares for all his creatures. "He who made the eye, can he not see? And he that made the ear, can he not hear?". God sees, God hears, and God knows, there is nothing hid from him. No man can hide from God, whether his deeds be good or evil. God is holy and all righteousness is in him. God hates sin and will eventually judge all sin.
      God has chosen to reveal himself to mankind in several different ways. He has revealed himself in nature, in his creation. "The heavens declare the glory of God; and the firmament sheweth his handiwork. Day unto day uttereth speech, and night unto night sheweth knowledge. there is no speech nor language where their voice is not heard." Psalm 19:1-3.
      There is no excuse for any intelligent being on earth not to know that God is, and that he is the creator of all things. God has revealed himself to mankind through the Holy Scriptures, The Holy Bible. "All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness: that the man of God may be perfect, thoroughly furnished unto all good works." 2 Timothy 3:16,17.
      "Knowing this first, that no prophecy of the scripture is of any private interpretation. For the prophecy came not in old time by the will of man: but holy men of God spake as they were moved by the Holy Ghost." 2 Peter 1:20,21
      If one would ask, who is God?, Then let him look to the heavens and observe and admire the glories of God's creation in the universe, in the stars and the galaxies. Let him look at the birds, the bees, the flowers, the animal kingdom and see the intelligent design of an intelligent creator.
      If one would ask: Who is God? Let him search the holy scriptures, the word of God, The bible, for therein God tells us who he is and what he requires of his creation. When God revealed himself to Moses on Mt Sini and gave him the ten commandments, he said to Moses: "I am that I am".
      God requires holiness, "Be ye holy as I am holy." God's requirement for the human race is that they have no other God beside him. "And thou shall love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind, and with all thy strength: this is the first commandment. And the second is like, namely this, thou shalt love thy neighbor as thyself. There is none other commandment greater than these.
      God has finally revealed himself in the person and incarnation of his only begotten son, The Lord Jesus Christ. No person can know God, nor approach unto God except by and through him. "God, who at sundry times and in divers manner spake in time past unto the fathers by the prophets, hath in these last days spoken unto us by his son, whom he hath appointed heir of all things, by whom also he made the worlds; who being the brightness of his glory, and the express image of his person, and upholding all things by the word of his power, when he had by himself purged our sins, sat down on the right hand of the majesty on high; Being made so much better than the angels, as he hath by inheritance obtained a more excellent name than they." Hebrews 1: 1-4.
      If one would ask: Who is God? Then let him lift up his eyes, and behold the only begotten son of God, the perfect lamb of God. God who is spirit, took upon himself a human body in the person of Jesus of Nazareth, who is the Christ, the Messiah. "In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. The same was in the beginning with God.. All things were made by him; and without him was not any thing made that was made. In him was life; and the life was the light of men,. And the light shineth in darkness; and the darkness comprehended it not." John 1: 1-5.
      All men and women, boys and girls, who have ever lived on earth are by nature sinners, having inherited the sin nature from our first parents, Adam and Eve. Because of this fact, the bible tells us that we are born estranged and separated from God, and consequently unless we are able to keep all the laws of God perfectly and attain unto his holiness, we are all condemned to be eternally separated from God and spend eternity in a literal Hell. No man ever lived on earth who could measure up to the holiness of God except the Son of God. Only in him is perfect sinlessness and holiness. The word of God the bible tells us that God in his love and mercy looked down upon the lost condition of mankind and that: "God so loved the world that he gave his only begotten son that whosoever believeth in him should not perish but have everlasting life." John 3: 16
.      Who then is God? God is our creator, our source, our beginning. God is God, the "Iam, that I am". He is the one that loves us with an everlasting love, and is not willing for any of us to perish and be separated from him forever. God never sent anyone to hell and he never will. If we should find ourselves eternally confined to the horrors of hell, it will be our own fault, because two thousand years ago, born in a stable in Bethlehem as prophesied by the prophet Micah, was Christ, the Perfect, sinless lamb of God, who came to take away the sin of the world, God has promised that whosoever will believe in him, and ask him for forgiveness, and receive him into their heart will be forgiven and will be given the gift of everlasting life.
      The scripture warns us: "Therefore we ought to give the more earnest heed to the things which we have heard, lest at any time we should let them slip. For if the word spoken by angels was steadfast, and every transgression and disobedience received a just recompense of reward; How shall we escape, if we neglect so great salvation; which at the first began to be spoken by the Lord, and was confirmed unto us by them that heard him; God also bearing them witness, both with signs and wonders, and with divers miracles, and gifts of the Holy Ghost, according to his own will?" Hebrews 2: 1-4.
       This then, should answer the question: Who is God? Before it is eternally too late won't you turn to Christ and accept him as your own personal Lord and Savior?

which Rodd Will You Take?

Thought For Today – July 21, 2022
Which Road Will You Take?  -  By: Robert A. Searles   

      There are two roads in life on which mankind may travel.  It is 2 impossible to travel on both roads at the same time, therefore one must 3 chose which road he will travel.  Both roads start from the  same place, 4 and it appears at first that they will both lead to the same 5 destination, for they seem to run parallel to one another for quite a 6 distance, but then very subtly they begin to separate and the distance 7 between them begins to widen, and after a while they have gone in 8 completely different directions.
     Jesus Christ our Lord and 9 Savior has warned us about choosing  the wrong road in life, and has 10 described these two roads for us.  He has pictured one as being a very 11 broad , well paved, well lighted, and easily traveled highway on which 12 it seems would be the most logical way to travel if one had alternate 13 ways of reaching the same destination.  This is the highway upon which 14 most people travel.  This is the most popular  highway for the 15 multitudes, but this road does not lead eventually to heaven, but it 16 will take you directly to hell. 

 Jesus said: "Enter ye in at the strait 17 gate for wide is the gate and broad is the way that leadeth to 18 destruction, and many there be that go in thereat Because strait is the 19 gait and narrow is the way. which  leadeth unto life, and few there be 20 that find it.” Matthew 7: 13, 14..
     If one would go to heaven, he 21 must choose the narrow road.  This is the unpopular way according to 22 the multitudes.  It is difficult to travel.  It has treacherous curves.  23 It is rocky.  It is a road that few people want to travel, but it is 24 the only  road that leads to heaven.
      “Strive to enter in at the strait gate: for many, I say unto will seek to enter in, and shall not be able.” Luke 13: 24. 
     My friend, if you want to go to heaven and enjoy the riches of God's glory forever, then you must choose the right road.
     25 Jesus said, “I am the door”  he also said, “I am the way, the truth, 26 and the life.” 

 If you would have life eternal, you must choose to 27 believe on the Lord Jesus Christ and receive him as your Lord and 28 Savior, and by his grace, walk in the paths that he has trod.

Rescue the Hopeless

Rescue the Hopeless

By: Robert  A. Searles

We do not need to linger long on any news channel before we come to understand, that our country and the whole world is inundated  in adversity.  That is ...trouble, hardship, hopelessness , etc.

 

"If thou faint in the day of adversity thy strength is small." Prov 24: 10 

Those of us which are saved need not  faint in the time of adversity, for we have an anchor for our soul, and  that anchor is Christ  who is our strength.

But what about the multitudes all around us, those who have no sure anchor for their souls.; those who know not Christ ? Thousands are living in fear and anxiety, not knowing where to turn, without any hope.  God's word tell us that it is the responsibility of those of us who are safe in the arms of Jesus, to seek and warn those who are drawn unto death. 

"Defend the poor and fatherless: do justice  to the afflicted and needy. Deliver the poor and needy: rid them out of the hand of the wicked." Psalm 82: 3,4 Also tell them that: "Jesus Saves", and that  "God so loved the world that he gave his only begotten son that whosoever believeth in him should not perish but have everlasting life." John 3: 16 

If we fail to do that which the Word of God has commandede us to do, we will have to give an account unto God.

"If thou forbear  to deliver them that are drawn unto death, and those that are ready to be slain; if thou sayest, behold,  we knew it not, doth not he that pondereth the heart consider it?  

and he that keepeth thy soul, doth not he know it? and shall he not  render to every man according to his works." .Prov 24:12

PS; May God bless all my readers! God loves us all! Jesus Christ died for us, and rose again to save us! Praise God!Share this gospel truth with your friends and with the world. Amen!

Speak to God!

 Thought For Today - March 9, 2024
 Speak to God!
By: Robert A. Searles

    "And David spake unto the Lord the words of this song in the day that the Lord had delivered him out of the hand of all his enemies, and out of the hand of Saul: And he said, the Lord is my rock, and my fortress, and my deliverer; the God of my rock; in him will I trust: he is my shield and the horn of my salvation, my high tower, and my refuge, my savior; thou savest me from violence." 2 Samuel 22: 1-3

David spoke unto the Lord and sang songs of praise and thanksgiving for God's deliverance from all his enemies, and for all his blessings.

    When we speak unto the Lord, what do we say to him? Is he pleased with our salutation to him? Do we approach him with respect and adoration, acknowledging his rule and sovereignty over us?

David acknowledged that he had won victories and was delivered from his enemies because of God's grace and love for him. His prayer and song of praise to God was in remembrance of all of God's favors and blessings. He recognized that God was his fortress and strong defense, and he called unto the Lord to tell him so.

    No battle is ever won with a multitude of men or horses without God's protection. No blessing ever comes to us unless God ordains it; and no salvation unless God chooses to save us, which he did when he sent Christ into the world to lay down his life for all who would believe. Nothing can harm us unless God allows it.

    We ought to speak to God in prayer the first thing in the morning. When we speak to God, our first words ought to be words of thanksgiving and praise. We ought to approach God as our father and tell him that we remember when we were yet sinners, and without hope in the world, and that Christ Jesus came into the world to save us,. We called upon him and he answered us, and he did save us.

    What a great privilege God our father has granted to us that through our Lord and savior Jesus Christ we have access to his throne of grace to speak with him when we are happy or, when we arc sad; when we have plenty or, when we are in want; when we are in danger, or when we are safe; when we are sick or, in good health.

    Let us always remember that God is our rock, our fortress, our high tower, and call upon the Lord who is worthy to be praised.

"I will call on the Lord, who is worthy to be praised: so shall I be saved from mine enemies." 2 Samuel 22 4

 

PS; May God bless all my readers! God loves us all! Jesus Christ died for us, and rose again to save us! Praise God!Share this gospel truth with your friends and with the world. Amen

The Lip of Truth

  Thouht for  Today - July 15, 2022 

The Lip Of Truth -  By: Robert A. Searles 

“The lip of truth shall be established forever: but a lying tongue is but for a moment.” Proverbs 12: 19 

Truth will prevail and last forever. God is true, therefore eternal and everlasting. His word is true and trustworthy therefore we can rely on it. All kinds of fantasies and lies may come and pass away, but whatever is true, that will remain.

 If one's relationship with God is true, troubles may come, doubts may come, a certain falling away for a time may occur, but like the evening tide,that sweet fellowship with the Lord will return to the one who in truth knows him in whom he has believed.

 If the foundation of the home is dug deep and set upon the rock of the true God, the Lord Jesus Christ, that house will stand and endure forever. 

If a marriage is founded upon true and genuine unselfish love, that marriage relationship will be forever. 

 Salvation which is true through the Lord Jesus Christ is a truth which will abide through all generations.

 Think therefore on things which are true, and speak things which are true.

Oh! To Be Godly!

Thought for Today -  September 14, 2023

Oh! To Be Godly!  

By: Robert A. Searles

 “But know that the Lord hath set apart him that is godly for himself: the Lord will hear when I call unto him. Psalm 4: 3 

 What does it mean to be godly? To be godly means to be somewhat like God. To take on some of the characteristics of God. In the beginning God made man in his image, to be like him, but because of sin, mankind fell, and has come short of the likeness of God. But through the sacrifice of the Lord Jesus Christ on the cross, mankind has been redeemed and reconciled to God on an individual basis, providing that the individual will accept it as a free gift from God. 

 “As many as received him, to them gave he power (or authority) to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name.” John 1: 12 

 As a child of God, we are in the family of God and godly.When we are born again into the family of God and become godly then the Lord sets us apart from every other creature. God puts upon us his shield of love and protection, and we find ourselves in the favor of God.

 God gives us special work and tasks to perform for his glory. He cleanses us on the inside, and makes us a fit house or vessel in which he can live and work. Since we are his special workmen, assigned a special job for his glory, God will give us extra special attention when we call unto him in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ. 

 “The Lord knoweth how to deliver the godly out of temptation.....” 2 Peter 2: 9 

Knowing that by grace we are saved through faith, and having put on godliness by God's grace, and knowing that we are God's special vessels for his honor, we ought to stand in awe and sin not, 

 We ought to come before God with such reverence and respect that in his presence we would be speechless and spellbound to behold his glory, if it were not for the fact that he gives the privilege to come boldly before the throne of grace. 

 When we stand before God, we ought to take off our shoes, as it were, because the place where we stand is holy ground.

 The family dinning room becomes holy ground when the family is gathered to enjoy God's bountiful blessing when we meet with God there, and the table becomes a sacred altar when we offer our gratitude, and offer ourselves before God.

 Our bed becomes a holy place when we lie upon it and commune with God from our hearts in the long night hours. Because we have become the children of God, and made godly in him, and because we are set apart to receive his special favor; and because we are the recipients of his great love and salvation; and because we are called out of the world to perform special tasks for him; we ought to be more than anxious to offer the sacrifice of righteousness, and die daily to ourselves, and abandon ourselves completely to God , and put our trust in him. 

 “The sacrifices of God are a broken spirit; a broken and contrite heart, O God thou wilt not despise.” Psalm 51: 17 

 “By him therefore, let us offer the sacrifice of praise to God continually, that is, the fruit of our lips giving thanks to his name.” 

 But to do well and to communicate forget not; for with such sacrifices God is well pleased.” Hebrews13: 15, 16. 

We should be continually praising God with our lips. Open wide your mouth and let the words flow out loud and clear from your heart: blessed be the name of the Lord; praise God from whom all blessings flow; glory to God in the highest. This is a sacrifice that God is pleased with – then, it follows with good works and service.

 “I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that ye present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto God which is your reasonable service.” Roman 12: 1 

. If we have given our bodies over to God as a living sacrifice, then we should have no problem opening wide our mouths in praise of God and in following it up with good works.

 “And the scribe said unto him, well, master, thou hast said the truth: for there is one God, and there is none other but he, and to love him with all the heart, and with all the understanding, and with all the soul and with all strength and to love his neighbor as himself is more than all whole burnt offerings and sacrifices.” Mark 12: 32 

PS; May God bless all my readers! God loves us all! Jesus Christ died for us, and rose again to save us! Praise God!Share this gospel truth with your friends and with the world. Amen!

Did You Go to the Garden This Morning?

 

 

Did You Go to the Garden This Morning?

 Thought For Today - December 26
DID YOU GO TO THE GARDEN THIS MORNING?  -  By: Robert A. Searles

Did you go to the garden this morning where Jesus was waiting for you? Did he greet you there, with your burdens and cares, did he bid you to give them to him?
When you met with the Lord in the garden, did he tell you that all would be well, If you only believe, and his love would  receive, And that no one could take you from him?

When you walked in the garden with Jesus this morn in the cool of the day, did he tell you of Heaven, his home up above? Did he tell you that he was the way?

If you did not go to the garden, this morn at the breaking of day, to meet with the Lord who was waiting for you, To take all your burdens away: Then you have missed a great blessing that could have been yours, had you worshiped at his throne of grace. He wanted to comfort and give you sweet rest, and wipe all the tears from your face.

Had you met in the garden with Jesus, This morn at the breaking of day: Great peace would be yours, After hearing his voice, saying child you have nothing to fear:
For all will be well if with me you will dwell, And walk in the garden with me.

I went to the garden this morning, where Jesus was waiting for me. We walked and we talked and we had fellowship  there. He showed me His plan for today. One day at a time, each moment I’ll find his guidance sufficient for me, If I will but trust in his holy  word, and be led by his spirit, you see!

Oh friend won’t you come to the garden, each morn at the breaking of day, where the roses  are fresh with the dew of the morn, and the birds sing so sweetly  of love,
To walk with him there, and so to prepare to live in his presence above.?

O who then will come to the garden to pray, where  Jesus is waiting for you? He waits for you there to show you the way, and show you the depths of his love

For you see, he’s not willing for you to be lost, and be cast into eternal hell. All your sin debt was paid when he died on the cross, He carried your guilt all away.

And when he arose on that first Easter morn, how fresh was the breaking of day! The dew on the rose, and the song of the birds, in the garden they met Jesus  there.  Sins debts were paid, death was destroyed when Jesus came out of the tomb. Forever  there will be, for you and for me, ,a place by his sanctified throne.

With these morning thoughts still fresh in our hearts, let us walk with him all through the day. As he guides us along and shows us the way, Let us but trust and obey. Then when the shadows of night come along, and we come to the end of our day, we can rejoice and lay down to sleep with assurance of eternal day.

He will swallow up death in Victory

 

Thought For Today - July 9, 2022

 He Will Swallow Up Death In Victory -  By: Robert A. Searles 

 The day will come when Israel will recornise the Lord Jesus Christ as their Messiah when he returns. What a wonderful promise and consolation we have from God our Father through the Lord Jesus Christ that "He will swallow up death in victory; and the Lord GOD will wipe away tears from off all faces; and the rebuke of his people shall he take away from off all the earth: for the Lord hath spoken it. And it shall be said in that day, Lo, this is our God; we have waited for him,and he will save us:this is the Lord; we have waited for him, we will be glad and rejoice in his salvation." Isaiah 25:8,9

 The day will come when God will completely fulfill this promise when our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ returns to earth to claim his throne.

 He is the righteous king to whom all creation belongs. When he comes, death will be abolished, and the sting of death swallowed up in victory. 

There will be no more need for tears, for in his reign and kingdom there will be no sorrow. His people will no longer be looked upon as the down trodden and outcast of the earth. On the contrary, they will rule and reign with him forever. Those of us who have called upon the Lord Jesus Christ to save us have the witness of the Holy Spirit within us which causes us to rejoice in our salvation 

We know that all of God's promises are true. We wait patiently and longingly for the great day of the Lord to come, and for Jesus to be crowned King of kings and Lord of lords. Even so, come quickly Lord Jesus.

Expect Great Things From God

 Thought For Today - September 22, 2023

Expect Great Things From God 

By: Robert A. Searles 

 "I am the Lord thy God which brought thee out of the Land of Egypt. Open thy mouth wide and I will fill it." Psalm 81:10 

 Those of us who are saved and know Christ as our personal Savior Can expect to receive great things from God our Father.

 God delivered his people,Israel, from the slavery and bondage of Egypt, and this is a type and picture for us today of how we through the sacrifice of Christ on the cross are wonderfully delivered from the bondage and slavery of sin, and are given the assurance of God's blessings and provision for us.

 God tells all of his children simply to have faith, believe, and open wide our mouths and he will fill them. 

 When we purchase something of great value, usually we take good care of it, we keep it polished and protected and preserved.Likewise a great and terrible price was paid for our salvation, the blood of the only begotten son of God. As the redeemed children of God, we are in God's sight of great value to him as his offspring and servants.

 Therefore, God has promised to fill our mouths with good things,and keep us eternally for his glory, so, by faith let us open our mouths wide and expect God to fill us abundantly with great things- the assurance of God's blessings and provision for us.

What Did Jesus Say Concerning the Law?

 Thought for Today - July 4, 2022
What Did Jesus Say Concerning The law?
By Robert A. Searles

      When almighty God created the universe and all things therein, he established certain laws by which it would function and continue.  He established all the laws of physics, mathematics, and astronomy, which he has by grace revealed to mankind; likewise, he established spiritual laws by which mankind was to relate to him and enjoy his fellowship. 

 He delivered to Moses  the ten commandments and other instructions that were required to be obeyed if one was to have fellowship with him and inherit his eternal glory.

    No one can see God and inherit his glory unless they keep the whole law.  If they fail in one point of the law, all is lost.  God knew from the very beginning, because of the nature of man, what was in man, and the frailty of man, so he made provision for mankind by sending Jesus Christ into the world, the one and only person and member of the human race who is one hundred percent man, and at the same time, one hundred percent God, who alone was able to obey the whole law in its' entirety.

     God still holds all mankind responsible for obeying his laws, but warns us that no one is capable of obeying the law perfectly, therefore unless someone else who is capable does for us that which we cannot do for ourselves, we are without hope and are lost.  But the good news is that Christ Jesus came into the world to save us from the curse of the law and set us free and place us under the grace or unmerited favor of God.

    Jesus said: “Think not that I am come to destroy the law or the prophets.  I am not come to destroy but to fulfill, for verily I say unto you, till heaven and earth pass, one jot or one title shall in no wise pass from the law till all be fulfilled.  Whosoever therefore shall break one of these commandments and shall teach men so, he shall be called the least in the kingdom of heaven; but whosoever shall do and teach them shall be  called great  in the kingdom of heaven.  For I say unto you that except your righteousness shall exceed the righteousness of the scribes and Pharisees, ye shall in no case  enter into the kingdom of heaven.” Matthew 5: 17-20.
  
  Some people may think that because Christians are under grace and not under law, that the laws and commandments of God no longer apply, but this is not so.  Jesus taught otherwise.  The requirements of the law are in effect today as much as they ever were, but none of us can meet those requirements no matter how hard we try.  Our only hope is to flee to Jesus for forgiveness and ask him to impute his righteousness to us.  Then sin no longer abounds but grace does much more abound, and we are set free from the curse of breaking God's laws.

Wheat Among Tares

 Wheat Among Tares!
By: Robert A. Searles

    The bible says that we who are saved, the born again children of God, and the heirs of the kingdom of God, are living here on this earth as wheat growing in a field among tares. That is, we occupy the same earth; the same space; we breath the same air; bathe in the same sunshine; and enjoy all the benefits of God's love and mercy as the wicked non believers do. The bible says that his rain and his sunshine and his blessings fall upon the just and the unjust alike. In order for him to water the wheat, the tares are watered also, until such time as the harvest when the wheat will be gathered into barns, and the tares cast into the furnace of hell to be burned.
As we live here among the tares, awaiting the harvest of souls, let us, as the wheat, not allow the tares to choke us and keep us from receiving all the blessings that the Lord has in store for us. Let us not be as the non believers, and the scoffers, ignoring the warning of God and being disobedient to him. God wants his own redeemed children, the wheat, to be separated and sanctified unto himself.
"Knowing this first, that there shall come in the last days scoffers, walking after their own lusts. And saying, where is the promise of his coming? For since the fathers fell asleep, all things continue as they were from the beginning of creation. For this they willingly are ignorant of, that by the word of God the heavens were of old, and the earth standing out of the water and in the water: Whereby the world that then was, being overflowed with water, perished: but the heavens and the earth which are now, by the same word are kept in store, reserved unto the fire against the day of judgment and perdition of ungodly men. But beloved, be not ignorant of this one thing, that one day is with the Lord as a thousand years, and a thousand years as one day. The lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is long suffering to us ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance. But the day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night; in the which the heavens shall pass away with a great noise, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat, the earth also and the works that are therein shall be burned up. Seeing then that all these things shall be dissolved, what manner of persons ought ye to be in all holy conversation and godliness, looking for and hasting unto the coming of the day of God, wherein the heavens being on fire shall be dissolved, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat? Nevertheless we, according to his promise, look for new heavens and a new earth, wherein dwelleth righteousness. Wherefore, beloved, seeing that ye look for such things, be diligent that ye may be found of him in peace, without spot and blameless." 2 Peter: 3: 3-14
    "Ye therefore, beloved, seeing ye know these things before, beware lest ye also, being led away with the error of the wicked, fall from your own steadfastness. But grow in grace, and in the knowledge of our Lord and savior Jesus Christ. To him be glory both now and for ever. A-men: 2 Peter 3:17,18.
