Since We Are Christians The Motiveof the Christian Life
Leonhard Euler (1707-1783)
Seeking Things Above (Colossians 3:1) If then you were raised with Christ, seek those things which are above, where Christ is, sitting at the right hand of God. (NKJV)
Seeking Things Above (Colossians 2:12-13) buried with Him in baptism, in which you also were raised with Him through faith in the working of God, who raised Him from the dead. And you, being dead in your trespasses and the uncircumcision of your flesh, He has made alive together with Him, having forgiven you all trespasses, (NKJV)
Seeking Things Above (Romans 6:3-4) Or do you not know that as many of us as were baptized into Christ Jesus were baptized into His death? Therefore we were buried with Him through baptism into death, that just as Christ was raised from the dead by the glory of the Father, even so we also should walk in newness of life. (NKJV)
Seeking Things Above (Romans 2:7-11) eternal life to those who by patient continuance in doing good seek for glory, honor, and immortality; but to those who are self-seeking and do not obey the truth, but obey unrighteousness--indignation and wrath, tribulation and anguish, on every soul of man who does evil, of the Jew first and also of the Greek; but glory, honor, and peace to everyone who works what is good, to the Jew first and also to the Greek. For there is no partiality with God.
Seeking Things Above (Philippians 4:8) Finally, brethren, whatever things are true, whatever things are noble, whatever things are just, whatever things are pure, whatever things are lovely, whatever things are of good report, if there is any virtue and if there is anything praiseworthy--meditate on these things. (NKJV)
Seeking Things Above (2 Corinthians 4:18) while we do not look at the things which are seen, but at the things which are not seen. For the things which are seen are temporary, but the things which are not seen are eternal. (NKJV)
Seeking Things Above (Psalms 27:4) One thing I have desired of the LORD, That will I seek: That I may dwell in the house of the LORD All the days of my life, To behold the beauty of the LORD, And to inquire in His temple. (NKJV)
Keep Yourself in the Love of God "We take the position that a Christian's sins do not damn his soul. The way a Christian lives, what he says, his character, his conduct, or his attitude toward other people have nothing whatever to do with the salvation of his souls...And all the sins he may commit from murder to idolatry will not make his soul in any more danger.” – Sam Morris
Keep Yourself in the Love of God • “If I killed my wife and mother and debauched a thousand women I couldn't go to hell--in fact, I couldn't go to hell if I wanted to.“– Bill Foster George Sodoni
Keep Yourself in the Love of God (John 10:28) "And I give them eternal life, and they shall never perish; neither shall anyone snatch them out of My hand. (NKJV)
Keep Yourself in the Love of God (1 Peter 1:5) who are kept by the power of God through faith for salvation ready to be revealed in the last time. (NKJV)
Keep Yourself in the Love of God (Hebrews 12:14-16) Pursue peace with all people, and holiness, without which no one will see the Lord: looking carefully lest anyone fall short of the grace of God; lest any root of bitterness springing up cause trouble, and by this many become defiled; lest there be any fornicator or profane person like Esau, who for one morsel of food sold his birthright. (NKJV)
Keep Yourself in the Love of God (Galatians 5:4) You have become estranged from Christ, you who attempt to be justified by law; you have fallen from grace. (NKJV)

But whoever denies Me before men, him I will also deny before My Father who is in heaven.” (Mat. 10:32-33) "He who believes and is baptized will be saved…” (Mark 16:16) “You are My friends if you do whatever I command you…” (John 15:14 – live a faithful life) (Matthew 10:22) "…he who endures to the end will be saved.”
