Security

Hi Everyone,

Think about these verses and the depth of what they say.

1 Corinthians 1:4-9
"I always thank my God for you because of his grace given you in Christ Jesus. For in him you have been enriched in every way—with all kinds of speech and with all knowledge—God thus confirming our testimony about Christ among you. Therefore you do not lack any spiritual gift as you eagerly wait for our Lord Jesus Christ to be revealed. He will also keep you firm to the end, so that you will be blameless on the day of our Lord Jesus Christ. God is faithful, who has called you into fellowship with his Son, Jesus Christ our Lord."

I guess when I read them-one word comes to my mind-security----security in the Lord

Because
1) We are enriched in every way
2) We don't lack the spiritual gifts that God has for us to use
3) He will keep us firm to the end
4) He is faithful
5) HE has called us into Fellowship with His Son, Jesus Christ our Lord.

Look at how the passage started 1 Corinthians 1:1-3 "Paul, called to be an apostle of Christ Jesus by the will of God, and our brother Sosthenes, To the church of God in Corinth, to those sanctified in Christ Jesus and called to be his holy people, together with all those everywhere who call on the name of our Lord Jesus Christ—their Lord and ours: Grace and peace to you from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ"

Yep! Obviously Paul's letter was for the church in Corinth and for their specific areas of concern that He saw that they were dealing with, but his words are also meant for us as well.

WE hAVESUCH SECURITY IN WHO GOD IS AND WHAT HE HAS PROMISED.
