Precious

What we have is precious to us. We enjoy going to church, we can not get enough of God's presence. To us we can not see why anyone wouldn't want to know this precious gospel we believe, why would anyone not want to be a new creature in Christ Jesus? We love to sacrifice, and to pray and fast. Reading the Bible is an enjoyment to us, the scriptures speak so loud and clear in our lives. We set aside time to go to church and church events, and we plan our lives around the kingdom of God. We that live for God are those that are willing to lose friends and even family members approval for the gospel's sake, we are those not looking for popularity but rather to please God. The revelation of One God is the very foundation of our doctrine, along with a man must be born again. When the world is saying contrary, we still get excited when Acts 2:38 is preached, it never gets old. We are those that have no problem being set apart from this world in our dress, our appearance, our attitude, our behavior, and our overall lifestyle. We born again believers are those that want to hear good strong preaching that will save the soul, we know how precious our preacher is. Souls are precious to us, we love them enough to tell them the truth. Why are we this way? Because HE is precious to us!


1 Peter 2:7  Unto you therefore which believe he is precious: but unto them which be disobedient, the stone which the builders disallowed, the same is made the head of the corner,
1 Peter 2:8  And a stone of stumbling, and a rock of offence, even to them which stumble at the word, being disobedient: whereunto also they were appointed.
1 Peter 2:9  But ye are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, an holy nation, a peculiar people; that ye should shew forth the praises of him who hath called you out of darkness into his marvellous light: 
1 Peter 2:10  Which in time past were not a people, but are now the people of God: which had not obtained mercy, but now have obtained mercy.

See why we love him so much, why we love truth so much, why we love worship so much, and why we love church so much? Its because he is PRECIOUS to us, because he brought us out of darkness into his marvelous light!

Look what the Lord hath done!
