01/19/26 REMAIN FAITHFUL 

REMAIN FAITHFUL, it is more than just a good idea; it is a command and a requirement.

Either God will separate us from sin, or sin will separate us from God.
God does provide, but we must decide.

It is possible to get saved and stay saved. (best decision).
It is possible to get saved and fall away (backslide) because we choose sin rather than God. (an always costly and possibly damnable decision).
It is possible to turn from backsliding and then return to God and His salvation. (essential but unlikely decision).
It is possible to continue backsliding to the point of eternal separation from God. (the worst decision you can make).

Though backsliders can return to Christ after deliberately disobeying God, their disobedience may result in never becoming all God intended for them, and they may lose the eternal blessings that God would have given them if they had remained faithful.

God provides for all Christians to enter the Promised Land of a Spirit-filled, victorious life and eternity with God.
Sadly, some will not continue (abide, remain, follow fully) to eternity with God.

Though repentant, Christians will spend eternity with God, many of them will fail to enter the Promised Land of "milk and honey," which includes...
Being "FILLED with the Holy Spirit,"
"WALKING (living) in the Spirit,"
Being "PERFECT in Love,"
Having "the PEACE OF GOD RULE" in their hearts"
Having Joy UNSPEAKABLE and FULL OF GLORY,"
Having "VICTORIOUS, OVERCOMING faith,
Producing "MUCH fruit,"
Being of the "SAME MIND with Christ,"
GUIDED by His EYE,
"CONFORMED to the IMAGE" of Jesus,
and much, much more).

God will...
Save faithful followers to the UTTERMOST,
Cause faithful followers to "always triumph in Christ,"
Enable faithful followers to be "more than conquerors,"
Grant faithful followers to "serve Him without fear, in holiness and righteousness... all the days of their lives."
