"When you pass through the waters,I will be with you, and through the rivers, they shall not overflow you. When you walk through the fire, you shall not be burned, nor shall the flame scorch you." [ Isaiah 43:2 nkjv ]
The Lord may take His people through some extremely testing experiences at times, in order to ensure their conformity to the Image of Hiis Son...our Lord Jesus Christ. As we can see from current world news reports,... ..there is much suffering and disaster in the world around us today. Our duty, as Christians, Is to do whatever we can to relieve that suffering ...in practical terms, as well as offering the message of Hope to a lost and dying world...[John 3:16;1John 3:16ff]
Paul writes to the Thessalonians...'I pray that your spirit, soul and body, be preserved blameless, at the Coming of our Lord Jesus Christ. [! Thess 5:23]. Therefore, we understand the Integral nature of man as a a tripartheid being. We are to minister to the whole man and fulfill the law of Christ in so doing. We are not to become weary in this, because The Righteous Judge will reward our faithfulness in service. The Truth Is a Priceless commodity to be offered freely to all who will accept it. One thing is certain, the global situation is deteriorating, ...economically, morally, sociologically, culturally, spiritually and naturally...!!!
Only the Christian knows WHY this Is the case...!!!
Let us take every opportunity to share the good news of the Gospel with as many as we can...while there is still time !
May The Lord Bless you.
