--HOW DO YOU GROW IN CHRIST?
-How do you mature? Most of us wish it was the same way as Bourbon... a matter of time...a matter of being aged. But it doesn't work that way. You can be a new Christian 75 years old..and not grow spiritually! -"WHY?"Because age doesn't have anything to do with it. It's faithfulness...it's love...it's perseverance... it's a battle. Why do you think the Salvation Army...which is a denomination of the Lord Jesus Christ...calls itself the 'Salvation Army'? Because living the Christian life, which is what the Bible is about, is a battle. It is always a conflict. There's always pressure. You are always living in a pressure cooker. There isn't much R and R. And the Lord says--'I know. I count you worthy for the kingdom of God...for which you are suffering.'~~
"He is the one we proclaim, admonishing and teaching everyone with all wisdom, so that we may present everyone fully mature in Christ." --(Colossians 1:28)--ONE on ONE/Ben Haden~~--/ 'Mountain of God'-/ Third Day~< https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wwCDV9KCE6Q> --------
Jesus said, "I am the way, the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me." [John 14:6]
