Colossians 2:6 So then, just as you received Christ Jesus as Lord, continue to live your lives in him,
It is our faith that allows us to see the beauty, majesty and glory of Christ as our Lord and Saviour. The fullness of this glorious picture is seen because of our faith in God, Jesus and His Word.
When we stand on that faith we are not tempted to go astray and live our former earthly lives but instead turn toward Him in our daily walk; that is where He wants our focus, in Him.
Our faith makes our lives whole because we receive so much more than just a belief; we receive eternal rest in Him, gladness and joy for all eternity.
