Count the Cost ~

Victory always has a price ...

Athletes suffer through grueling training to overcome their opponents. This training involves the action of their heart and will to accomplish the goal they have set for themselves to win at all cost.

The Christ ... the Messiah came to earth from heaven to free us from the bondage of sin and death so we could be in right relationship with our Creator God. This victorious gift of God's saving grace came with a great price ... suffering ... shed blood and death.

The true church is not an organization controlled by the rules of men but a holy collection of living stones with Jesus Christ as the Cornerstone. The true church takes the challenge of the race of righteousness as we count the cost each new day His gives us breath to breathe as we look unto the example of strength in Christ Jesus the author and finisher of our faith ~

"For which of you intending to build a tower does not sit down first and count the cost whether he has enough to finish it." Luke 14:28 ~
