Written by Joyce C. Lock


Continued from page 1

"Forasmuch as ye know that ye were not redeemed with corruptible things, as silver and gold, from your vain conversation received by tradition from your fathers; But withrepparttar precious blood of Christ, as of a lamb without blemish and without spot: Who verily was foreordained beforerepparttar 126607 foundation ofrepparttar 126608 world ... who by him do believe in God, that raised him up fromrepparttar 126609 dead, and gave him glory; that your faith and hope might be in God. Seeing ye have purified your souls in obeyingrepparttar 126610 truth throughrepparttar 126611 Spirit unto unfeigned love ofrepparttar 126612 brethren, see that ye love one another with a pure heart fervently: Being born again, not of corruptible seed, but of incorruptible, byrepparttar 126613 word of God, which liveth and abideth for ever," (I Pe. 1:18-23).

The message of Moses is stillrepparttar 126614 same, today.

"Let my people go, so they may serve God."

Acceptance, by God (His unconditional love), cannot be earned. It was His gift to us fromrepparttar moment we received Him into our heart (Ep. 1:6). It has already been given! Though, like any gift, it is not ours until received.

However, if we want God's acceptance (approval) and divine favor (blessings) in and as a result of our service, our works must be our gift fromrepparttar 126606 heart (II Co. 10:18, Ac. 10:35); as God can't be impressed withoutrepparttar 126607 heart (I Sa. 16:7). © by Joyce C.
