We, as believers, are not here to please the world or submit to its demands. We belong to the Lord and are obligated to live for Him every day and in every way! All that we are and all we ever hope to be is in Christ and Christ alone.
Acts 4:12 – Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is none other name under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved.
We are called to be a holy people, separated from the world and unto the Lord. Our service will be greatly hindered if we fail to live consecrated lives!
The Apostle Paul gave great advice to the Colossians that will go a long way to keep us a holy people consecrated to the Lord.
Col. 2:8 – Beware lest any man spoil you through philosophy and vain deceit, after the tradition of men, after the rudiments of the world, and not after Christ.
