The Gospel

Moreover, brethren, I declare unto you the GOSPEL which I preached unto you, which also ye have received, and wherein ye stand; By which also ye are saved, if ye keep in memory what I preached unto you, unless ye have believed in vain. For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures; And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures:

[Paul, writing to Christians @ Corinth, 1 Cor. 15:1-4]

Revelation 2:10


Title:  Be faithful

We have always understood faithfulness as regular attendance of worship services and consistent giving of offerings, mostly revolving around congregational activities, but the truth is it goes beyond the four corners of a place of worship; faithfulness, in its purest sense, demands the sacrifice of our lives, and merely for being identified as a Christian.

A Christian is willing and ready, by the grace of God, to die for his faith.  A commitment that falls short of putting our lives on the line for the testimony of our belief in the truthfulness of God’s promises is not faithfulness.

It is not even Christianity, for the Scriptures bear witness that a Christian will stand firm to the end.
