As 'time' marches on, toward eternity; the mantra, to the believer, becomes 'Shine, Believers Shine!' “that men might see (His good works in you), and glorify your Father which is in heaven.” [M. Hollis; Pastor; Matthew 5:16]
Jesus preached, declaring: “The time promised by God is come, and the (invisible) kingdom of God is at hand (being made visible); repent (have a change of mind), and believe the gospel (as seeing the invisible).”
[Mark 1:15; Hebrews 11:27 “by faith”]
[Mark 1:15; Hebrews 11:27 “by faith”]
You could say that “faith” transforms us “from being comfortable with the visible, to being intimate with the invisible.” For, truly, “the kingdom of God is within;” such that the words of the song ring true: SOMETHING ON THE INSIDE IS WORKING (being made manifest) ON THE OUTSIDE.
[Pastor; Luke 17:21]
So, as we (the Church) move forward, in 2013; let us be determined to move forward “looking unto Jesus, the author and finisher (beginning and ending) of our faith.”
[Hebrews 12:2]
ThenSingsMySoul:
THE CHURCH'S ONE FOUNDATION
IS JESUS CHRIST, HER LORD;
SHE IS HIS NEW CREATION
BY WATER AND THE WORD:
FROM HEAV'N HE CAME AND SOUGHT HER
TO BE HIS HOLY BRIDE;
WITH HIS OWN BLOOD HE BOUGHT HER
AND FOR HER LIFE HE DIED.
