We must DAILY take up the CROSS and FOLLOW JESUS (John 3:16-18).
“[FOR YE ARE ALL THE CHILDREN OF GOD BY FAITH IN
CHRIST JESUS]” (Galatians 3:24).
Our Lord Jesus says: “If any man will come after me, let him deny himself,
and take up his [CROSS DAILY], and [FOLLOW ME]” (Luke 9:23). “And he that [TAKETH
NOT HIS CROSS, AND FOLLOWETH AFTER ME, IS NOT WORTHY OF ME]” (Matthew 10:38).
“No man, having put his hand to the plough, and [LOOKING BACK], is fit
for the Kingdom of God” (Luke 9:62).
“But he that shall [ENDURE UNTO THE END], the same shall be [SAVED]”
(Matthew 24:13).
“Remember Lot’s wife” (Luke 17:32)?
Lot, his wife and two daughters were elected to be SAVED from the
destruction of Sodom and Gomorrah. The angels of God told them, saying: “Escape
for thy life; look not behind thee, neither stay thou in all the plain; escape
to the mountain, lest thou be consumed” (Genesis 19:17).
Lot’s wife did not BELIEVE the word of God as spoken by the angels of
God :…”[LOOK NOT BEHIND THEE],…”.. Lot’s wife was disobedient to the word of
God; LOT’S WIFE DID NOT ENDURE TO THE END AND LOST HER SALVATION! Lot’s wife
loved life so much in Sodom and Gomorrah that she had to have one last look,
but it was not to be, because she turned into a pillar of salt (Genesis 19:26).
“Take heed, brethren, lest there be in any of you an evil heart of
unbelief, in departing from the living God. But exhort one another daily, while
it is called To day; lest any of you be hardened through the deceitfulness of
sin. For we are made partakers of Christ, if we hold the beginning of our
confidence stedfast unto [THE END]” (Hebrews 3:12-14).
