Eternal Debt

                                     


                               Eternal Debt:  

                                Obedience:

    There is an eternal debt that's crucial to our existence:  obedience.

Obedience to God's word, which is new every morning. (Lamentations 3:23)

 Great is your faithfulness.  Faith is what pleases God.  (Hebrews 11:6).

And without faith it is impossible to please God.  Walk by faith, not by sight.

(2 Corinthians 5:7). Now faith is being sure of what we hope for, and certain

of what we do not see.  (Acts17:11). Now the Berean Jews were of more
 
nobel character than those in Thessalonica, for they received message

with great eagerness and examined the scriptures everyday to see if what

Paul said was true. (15:20: 20-34)  But Christ has has indeed been raised

from the dead, the first fruits of those who have fallen asleep.  For since

death came through one man, the resurrection of the dead comes also

through a man.  For also Adam all died, so in Christ, the first fruits: then,

when he comes, those who belong to him,   Then the end will come.  When

he hands over the kingdom to God the Father after he has destroyed all

dominion, authority and all power.

   For he must reign until he has put all enemies under  his feet.  The

last enemy to be destroyed is death.  For he has everything under

his feet.  Know when it says that everything has been put under

him, is clear that this doesn't include God himself.  Who puts

everything under him, so that God may be in all.  Now if there

is no resurrection, what will those do who are baptized from

the dead?  If the dead are not raised at all, what is are

people baptized for?  And as for us, why do we endanger

ourselves every hour?  I face death, everyday has just as

surely as I boast about you in Christ Jesus, our Lord.  If

I fought wild beasts in Ephesus with no more than human

hope.  What have I gained if the dead are not raised?

Let us eat and drink, for tomorrow we die.  Do not be

mislead:  Bad company corrupts good character. Come

back to your senses as you ought, and stop sinning, for

there are some who are ignorant of God.  I say this story

to your shame.  Can we keep and obey what these messages

is commanding.  No, we don't live up to them now.
