How To Become And Continue To Be
“A Christian At Ease In Christ”
Life is filled with hardships. Far too many Christians* are nervous wrecks when they should be enjoying their “new life in Christ”, and the “peace of God which surpasses all understanding.” We’ve been told to “count it all joy when [we] fall into various trials, knowing that the testing of [our] faith produces patience” (James 1:2). This can lead us to spiritual maturity.
It’s possible for us to have perfect peace in the midst of life’s storms if we know His promises that are addressed to us, as Christians, and if we claim them by faith. (Notice: Many of the promises in the Bible were given to the Jews, not to the Church.)
“God will keep His promises whether you believe them or not.”
May we suggest that you memorize these with a friend? Teach them to your children, grandchildren.
