UNFAZED!

Word for today:

"An empty-head thinks mischief is fun, but a mindful person relishes wisdom. The nightmares of the wicked come true; what the good people desire, they get. When the storm is over, there's nothing left of the wicked; good people, firm on their rock foundation, aren't even FAZED." Proverbs 10:23-25

Know the promises of God's word, stand firm in faith and nothing will FAZE you!!!!
Praise God for His Word! His Word is ALWAYS relevant, no matter what new doctrine or method comes along to undo the validity the Word! God's Word remains the same yesterday, today, and forever -- "For ever, O LORD, your word is settled in heaven." (Ps. 119:89) When the storms of life try to move and shake your foundation, just dig in even deeper into the Word and the promises of God and stand firm! Be strong and courageous because God is with you! He will never leave you and He will never forsake you... don't let the devil's smoke screen attack get you off track -- he is just a bunch of puff and fluff!!!!! Stand firm and remain UNFAZED!

God's Richest Blessings on You,

Grace -- Your Get Out of Hell Free Card.

Many questions are asked today by Christians regarding Grace, that is the unmerited favor of God. One of the most popular is, "Can a Christian backslide?" Well, before we jump to a quick response, we should take a look at the Word of God and see what it has to say about the matter, after all the Bible should be the deciding factor, not a man's opinion.


Now there are many patterns of thought on this subject, but I will list the two most extreme. One line of thought is that you must achieve salvation through your works and you constantly lose you salvation and constantly have to repent and work out, through good deeds, your salvation. The other line of thought is once saved, always saves or that because we are under grace we can do no wrong and can't backslide.

First, let us discuss what grace actually is. Grace typically refers to that act of Jesus on the cross. That is, the Father's unconditional love for mankind and the sacrifice of His son Jesus to redeem us from sin and the curse, being made a curse for us (Gal.3:13).
