NO RETREAT

By Rick Mathes

Mark 13:13 And you will be hated by all on account of My name, but the one who endures to the end, he shall be saved.

Real Christianity is exclusive. There is only one Jesus and He is the only way to the Father and entry into heaven. The hard truth is that everyone else is going to be tortured in eternal flames forever. Jesus said that He was “the way, the truth and the life.” And that no one, no one, without a qualifier can get past Him. This is why Satan’s world of false religions hate us so is because this is the truth or we have joined th army of hypocrites.

Our walk must express our tlk or we have joined the army of hypocrites the devil is marshaling against us; when your profession of allegiance to Jesus is violated. You’ve just gien the demon foot soldiers a victory. This arouses their confidence of victory over your shaky faith and they double their efforts to defeat you with doubt and fear.

In other words, your actions speak louder than your words. You are shaming our Lord when your walk is sabotaged by your own lack of resolve. If I were set out to destroy your relationship with Jesus I would just leave you alone. Without a church of believers to lift you up, you will trip and fall.

It’s just a matter of time. WE are mortal and God knows our death date and I do too. Would you like me to tell you the year, month, week, hour and minute of your last heartbeat? Ok, here it comes! You will die the moment your assignment on earth is accomplished. It is then He will take you to your reward.

There are three things that cannot be recovered: 1. A sped arrow, 2. A spoken word and 3. A passing opportunity. Your words are irrecoverable so use them carefully and protect them like precious jewels.

Lastly, your habits are the actions of your habits. Makes sense to me to do those things that strengthen my stanfd for Christ and in time my habit will be to stand firm, put on the armor and lift up the sword. No that’s a great habit and its essence of the hate those who refuse Him will have against us. We just don’t retreat!
