\u201c\u00a0Therefore I intend always to remind you of these qualities, though you know them and are established in the truth that you have.\u00a0I think it right, as long as I am in this body, to stir you up by way of reminder,\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cIf you are not firm in faith, you will not be firm at all.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Psalms 78:22<\/b>\u00a0<\/a>\u00a0because they did not believe in God and did not trust his saving power.<\/p>\n

Psalms 106:24<\/b><\/a>\u00a0\u00a0<\/b>\u00a0\u00a0Then they despised the pleasant land, having no faith in his promise.<\/p>\n

Hebrews 3:12<\/b><\/a>\u00a0<\/b>\u00a0\u00a0Take care, brothers, lest there be in any of you an evil, unbelieving heart, leading you to fall away from the living God.<\/p>\n

Hebrews 3:18<\/b><\/a>\u00a0\u00a0And to whom did he swear that they would not enter his rest, but to those who were disobedient?\u00a0\u00a0So we see that they were unable to enter because of unbelief.<\/p>\n

Hebrews 11:6<\/b><\/a>\u00a0\u00a0<\/b>\u00a0\u00a0And without faith it is impossible to please him, for whoever would draw near to God must believe that he exists and that he rewards those who seek him.<\/p>\n

Jude 1:5<\/b><\/a>\u00a0\u00a0<\/b>\u00a0\u00a0Now I want to remind you, although you once fully knew it, that Jesus, who saved a people out of the land of Egypt, afterward destroyed those who did not believe.<\/p>\n

Hebrews 4:1<\/b><\/a>\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Therefore, while the promise of entering his rest still stands, let us fear lest any of you should seem to have failed to reach it.\u00a0\u00a0For good news came to us just as to them, but the message they heard did not benefit them, because they were not united by faith with those who listened.<\/p>\n

I have been thinking lately about those that are saved and those who are lost without hope in the Living God. \u00a0There are those who are lost but do not know they need saving and there are those who know they are lost and choose not to be saved. \u00a0In Romans is says “They exchanged the truth about God for a lie” \u00a0<\/em>and in Thessalonians “Therefore God sends them a strong delusion, so that they may believe what is false,” \u00a0<\/em>We are to be light unto those who walk in darkness.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
