Kingdom Living - The Commands of Christ

DAY 29 OF 98

Commands of Christ: 27 

Enter through the narrow gate. 

There are not many roads to salvation. Only one. Jesus. There are not lots of ways to please Him. He is pretty specific that only those who love Him will be loved by the Father. All those who love Him will obey Him. The Holy Spirit is given to those who obey Him. I didn’t say those things, He did. He wasn’t talking about earning salvation. He was talking about the evidence that would be demonstrated by those whom were saved. Our righteousness is only in Him and through the life of the Spirit whom He gave us. We are still to work out our salvation with fear and trembling. Resting in the Lord does not preclude laboring for His Kingdom. It is hard work. It is impossible work, but He does it for us, through us.

About this Plan

Kingdom Living - The Commands of Christ

Our lives should be characterized by what Jesus commanded and as His followers we should be getting others to love (and thus obey) Him as well. This is not optional or for extra credit. It is the very essence of what it means to be His follower. "...teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you..." This is what Kingdom Living is all about.
