(Gen. 2:7) – "And do not fear those who kill the body but cannot kill the soul. But rather fear Him who is able to destroy both soul and body in hell. (Matt. 10:28) – The soul who sins shall die. The son shall not bear the guilt of the father, nor the father bear the guilt of the son. The righteousness of the righteous shall be upon himself, and the wickedness of the wicked shall be upon himself. (Ezek. 18:20) – For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord. (Romans 6:23) It costs NOT TO BE a faithful Christian!!!!

(Phil. 4:6-7) – They have also healed the hurt of My people slightly, Saying, 'Peace, peace!' When there is no peace. (Jer. 6:14) – "There is no peace," Says my God, "for the wicked." (Isa. 57:21) It costs NOT TO BE a faithful Christian!!!!

Or what will a man give in exchange for his soul?” (Mk. 8:36-37) – Now godliness with contentment is great gain. For we brought nothing into this world, and it is certain we can carry nothing out. And having food and clothing, with these we shall be content. (1 Tim. 6:6-8) – Brethren, I do not count myself to have apprehended; but one thing I do, forgetting those things which are behind and reaching forward to those things which are ahead, I press toward the goal for the prize of the upward call of God in Christ Jesus. (Phil. 3:13-14) It costs NOT TO BE a faithful Christian!!!!

Refusing to be a Faithful Christian, One Sacrifices… Their influence for truth – Then I heard a voice from heaven saying to me, “Write: ‘Blessed are the dead who die in the Lord from now on.’” “Yes,” says the Spirit, “that they may rest from their labors, and their works follow them.” (Rev.14:13) – By faith Abel offered to God a more excellent sacrifice than Cain, through which he obtained witness that he was righteous, God testifying of his gifts; and through it he being dead still speaks. (Hebrews 11:4) – Imitate me, just as I also imitate Christ. (1 Cor.11:1) It costs NOT TO BE a faithful Christian!!!!
