03/31/10 MY BIRTHDAY
Praise the Lord, I made it, at least this far.
Being Born Again... BORN ONCE, DIE TWICE; BORN TWICE, DIE ONCE. Thank You Jesus for allowing be to be born in a place and time that I could hear the glorious gospel and for calling me to Yourself. Thank You for allowing be to be born again into Your glorious family.
1 Peter 1:23
23 Being born again, not of corruptible seed, but of incorruptible, by the word of God, which lives and abides forever.
Not In This Life Only... The blessing of family and friends and ministry are additional to this fact; Christ in me is the hope of glory. I am a new creation, old things are passed away and all things have become new.
The Total Package...
1 Corinthians 15:19-22
19 If in this life only we have hope in Christ, we are of all men most miserable.
20 But now is Christ risen from the dead, and become the firstfruits of them that slept.
21 For since by man came death, by man came also the resurrection of the dead.
22 For as in Adam all die, even so in Christ shall all be made alive.
Colossians 1:26-29
26 Even the mystery which hath been hid from ages and from generations, but now is made manifest to his saints:
27 To whom God would make known what is the riches of the glory of this mystery among the Gentiles; which is Christ in you, the hope of glory:
28 Whom we preach, warning every man, and teaching every man in all wisdom; that we may present every man perfect in Christ Jesus:
29 Whereunto I also labor, striving according to his working, which works in me mightily.
2 Corinthians 5:17
17 Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new.
