BUILDING A SOLID LIFE WITH THE SAVIOR
For we are God's fellow workers; you are God's field, you are God's building.
1 Corinthians 3:9 NKJV
Greetings,
The quality of the church is dependent upon the quality of our personal lives. The true church is nothing more or nothing less than personal lives built upon the solid foundation of Christ teaching. The same is true in the Christian life. Jesus Christ is the solid foundation on which we must build our lives, but what are we building on that foundation? Is it a palace worthy of Him? Each of us must see ourselves as an integral part of the stonework of God’s house. We are a living spiritual stone in God's spiritual house, which is the church. The way we go about living is extremely important. For Such a Times as this Kingdom Business is for kingdom Children. When we trust in Him as our Savior, and begin putting into practice His teaching, we become more and more the wise man who is building His life upon the rock. It's the life-long process by which the Holy Spirit works in us to make us more godly. It's the process by which we learn to build our lives on a new foundation.
The only Rock on which we wise builders can build is our Lord and Savior Jesus!
