May I ask you a few questions?
When you began the Christian life, did you:
1st. Trust Christ’s FINISHED WORK alone?
WHO his own self bare our sins in his own body on the tree, that we, being dead to sins, should live unto righteousness: by whose stripes ye were healed.
I Peter 2:24.
2nd. Did you SURRENDER all to God? God is demanding this.
MY son give me thine heart.
Proverbs 23:26.
3rd. Did you CONFESS CHRIST publicly?
WHOSOEVER therefore shall confess me before men, him will I confess also before my Father which is in heaven. But whosoever shall deny me before men, him will I also deny before my Father which is in heaven.
