To make it your ambition and endeavor to live peacefully, to mind
your dealings and to work with your hands as we charged you.
So that you may bear yourselves becomingly and be correct and
honorable and command the respect of the outside world, being
dependent on nobody (self-supporting) and having need of nothing.
(I. Thessalonians 4.11 & 12).
HALLELUJAH! THANK YOU LORD JESUS FOREVERMORE!
Thererfore , as sin came to the world
through one man
and death as the result of sin
so death spread to all men
because all men sinned.
Sin was in the world before
ever the Law was given
but sin is not charged to
men’s account where
there is no law.
Yet death held sway from
Adam to Moses
even over those who did not
transgress as Adam did.
Adam was a type of the One
Who was to come.
But God’s free gift is not at all
to be compared to the trespass.
For if many died through one man’s
falling away, much more profusely
did God’s grace and the free gift
that comes through the undeserved
favor of the one Man Jesus Christ
abound and overflow for many.
( Romans 5.12-15).
Reflect on these verses. Pray and thank
God for His immesurable free flowing grace.
