An Autobiography of Paul the Apostle
As the Apostle Paul speaks of his life, he was not vainly boasting. Rather, he is assuring both Timothy and us that any investment we may make in the kingdom of heaven will be well rewarded! Paul had sacrificed much over the course of his life to evangelize the gentile world and establish churches; but Paul expresses no regret. He is confident that he is the one who will be benefited by giving his life to the Master. In the end, we who love and serve Jesus Christ will certainly receive far more from our heavenly father than we ever could have sacrificed in a hundred lifetimes of Christian service and commitment.
Evil Heart of Unbelief
It has been my observation that much of the church seems to be lacking something. Their Christian experience is not what they expected it would be. Victory often has recurring defeat, instead of advancement one is often losing ground. Is this all Christ meant when He said, “Come unto Me?” The Word of God says emphatically NO!…One does not need a forum to discuss, argue, debate, or strategize on the 2nd Work of Grace. We need an Altar where we can have our own personal Gethsemane (where we get alone with God) make a complete consecration of our lives to Him and plead the merits of His blood and experience the Baptism with the Holy Ghost and fire that will burn this damnable thing, called the Evil Heart of Unbelief, out of our Nature and be Filled with the Holy Spirit!
