Examine Yourself ~

The Spirit of Truth comes from within ... to examine us ...

Let us ponder this for a moment ...

We need to understand the difference between CONVICTION power coming from the Holy Spirit that shines like a light within our hearts to expose the unholy that can destroy spiritual growth. He then brings desire to change as we become willing to repent.

Completely different from CONDEMNATION that filters through the unholy spirit of darkness bringing no hope or desire but only death and hopelessness of heart from outside forces that speak against us.

"Examine yourselves as to whether you are in the faith. Test yourselves. Do you not know yourselves, that Jesus Christ is in you?" 2 Corinthians 13:5 ~

Grace of Giving ~

Our Father God in heaven gives without reminding us of our unworthiness.

For His grace is not purchased with our monies. God gives because He loves ...

The proper attitude in meeting adversity then becomes gratefulness in a loving God who gives unto His children all that they need.

Like family ...

"For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life." John 3:16 ~
