I’m no longer a Slave to Sin. I am a Child of God. We pursue holiness in this life, knowing that although we still fall short, yet in life, we can take heart, because in death, there will be no sting of judgement. We will be made perfect, and complete, lacking in nothing. Our faith in the here and now, in Jesus death and resurrection, taking on our own sin makes us whole both now and for all of eternity.

The Old Testament stories, lead to Jesus…

JESUS IS ALIVE! He has rescued us from the sting of Death. HE IS RISEN. GO and TELL OTHERS.

We draw near, when we accept Gods invitation to be rescued from ourselves. It is an act of surrender from trying to measure up to a Holy God. God invites us, through his son Jesus’s sacrifice on our behalf. He gave his life, so that we might live, both now, and for all of eternity. If you have not done, this, will you consider this today. Let us know, if you have and we will celebrate with you. God Bless.

James 1:12 Persevering under trials brings maturity in our Faith and Hope for tomorrow.

Notes from John MacArthur Study Bible

1:12 Blessed. See notes on Mt 5:4, 10, 11. Believers who successfully endure trials are truly happy (cf. 5:11). perseveres. See note on v. 3. In this context, it also describes the passive, painful survival of a trial and focuses on the victorious outcome. Such a person never relinquishes his saving faith in God; thus this concept is closely related to the doctrine of eternal security and perseverance of the believer (see note on Mt 24:13; cf. Jn 14:15, 23; 1Jn 2:5, 6, 15, 19; 4:19; 1Pe 1:6–8). trial. See note on v. 2. approved. Lit. “passed the test” (see note on v. 2, “trials”). The believer has successfully and victoriously gone through his trials, indicating he is genuine because his faith has endured like Job’s. crown of life. Best translated “the crown which is life.” “Crown” was the wreath put on the victor’s head after ancient Greek athletic events. Here, it denotes the believer’s ultimate reward, eternal life, which God has promised to him and will grant in full at death or at Christ’s coming (see notes on 2Ti 4:8; Rev 2:10; cf. 1Pe 5:4).
