The Simple Truth About Salvation

Presentation transcript:

“Therefore, my beloved brethren, be ye steadfast, unmovable, always abounding in the work of the Lord, forasmuch as ye know that your labor is not in vain in the Lord.”

 The word “steadfast” means to be anchored down, not moved about. The Bible tells us that in the last days, there will be “distress of nations with perplexity” (Luke 21:25), and that men will run to and fro, seeking pleasure, and finding no true satisfaction.  Today people are as restless as the sea tossed by the high winds of a terrible storm. God did not create us to be running around without purpose and meaning in our lives.

 There are many Christians who live with no direction or purpose in their lives. They jump from one thing to the next searching for some type of contentment or fulfillment, but that is not what God wants.  Jesus gives us peace in our souls and anchors us in Himself so that there is no need to be tossed to and fro. Christians need to turn to God and be steadfast in the Lord Jesus Christ. He is the true source of contentment, fulfillment, meaning & purpose.

 Steadfast in Truth - In Acts 2:41-42, the Bible tells us, “They that gladly received the word were baptized … and they continued steadfastly in the apostle’s doctrine.” - Today our world is filled with religious confusion. The only real true hope is in the Lord Jesus Christ. The Bible is the source of truth about life and God! Go home and read and meditate upon it!

 Steadfast in Faith Ephesians 2:8 “For by grace are you saved through faith” - Faith – means simply to believe what God has said and then commit our souls to Him. It is fully trusting Him with the salvation and keeping of our souls. - The victory that overcomes the world is our faith. Don’t let anything or anyone destroy or discourage your faith. Trust the Lord!

 Steadfast in Work - “you know that your labor is not in vain in the Lord.” - Every human endeavor that man has worked for one day will pass away and be forgotten. But those who labor for the Kingdom of God are building and working for something that lasts forever!

 Learn the truth, trust Jesus, and work for Him.  Christian Steadfastness!  The true way to contentment, fulfillment, meaning and purpose for your life!
