GENUINE OR IMPOSTER?

 

2 Timothy 2:19

 

"But God's firm foundation stands, bearing this seal: 'The Lord knows those who are his,' and, 'Let everyone who names the name of the Lord depart from iniquity.'" ESV

 

God is the builder of the Church. Jesus Christ is the Cornerstone, secured forever by the seal of God's hand. A seal signifies ownership and removes any doubt about the Truth. Many people proclaim they are Christians, but they aren't. God knows those who are genuinely His. They have turned from their own selfish ways. God's Church, made up of His people, is pure and holy, founded on Jesus Christ, the Cornerstone.

 

Heavenly Father, we thank You that You have provided the way for us to be Your own. Help us to use our faith and to live holy before You and before others, so that Your Church brings You glory and honor. In the name of Jesus, Amen.

SOMETHING SOLID TO STAND ON

 

 

1 Corinthians 3:11

 

"For no one can lay a foundation other than that which is laid, which is Jesus Christ." ESV

 

A foundation is the base on which everything else stands. As Christians, our foundation is Jesus Christ and Him crucified. Everything we do must come from this foundation. We are to stand on it, build on it, and grow from it. Allowing personal ideas and philosophies of the world to enter in to our building of faith is destructive and will not stand up under the hand of God.

 

Heavenly Father, we confess Jesus Christ as our Lord and Saviour. Help us to be alert and watch every thing we add to the foundation of our lives. Show us when we are adding our own ideas or those of others. Keep us focused on You so that our foundation does not become weak. Help us to hunger for You and Your Word so that we will build on Jesus Christ alone. We pray in Jesus' name, Amen.

BUILD ON CHRIST ALONE

A foundation is the base on which everything else stands. As Christians,
our foundation is Jesus Christ and Him crucified. Everything we do must come from this foundation. We are to stand on it, build on it, and grow from it. Allowing personal ideas and philosophies of the world to enter in to our building of faith is destructive and will not stand up under the hand of God.

Read 1 Corinthians 3:11

"For no one can lay any foundation other than the one already laid, which is Jesus Christ." (NIV)

"For other foundation can no man lay than that is laid, which is Jesus
Christ." (KJV)
