BE STABLISHED IN THE FAITH.

BE STABLISHED IN THE FAITH. 

Colossians 1:6 

Which Is Come Unto You, As It Is In All The World; And Bringeth Forth Fruit, As It Doth Also In You, Since The Day Ye Heard Of It, And Knew The Grace Of God In Truth:

Colossians 1:9-14,21-23,28 

For This Cause We Also, Since The Day We Heard It, Do Not Cease To Pray For You, And To Desire That Ye Might Be Filled With The Knowledge Of His Will In All Wisdom And Spiritual Understanding; That Ye Might Walk Worthy Of The Lord Unto All Pleasing, Being Fruitful In Every Good Work, And Increasing In The Knowledge Of God; Strengthened With All Might, According To His Glorious Power, Unto All Patience And Longsuffering With Joyfulness; Giving Thanks Unto The Father, Which Hath Made Us Meet To Be Partakers Of The Inheritance Of The Saints In Light: Who Hath Delivered Us From The Power Of Darkness, And Hath Translated Us Into The Kingdom Of His Dear Son: In Whom We Have Redemption Through His Blood, Even The Forgiveness Of Sins: 

[21] And You, That Were Sometime Alienated And Enemies In Your Mind By Wicked Works, Yet Now Hath He Reconciled In The Body Of His Flesh Through Death, To Present You Holy And Unblameable And Unreproveable In His Sight: If Ye Continue In The Faith Grounded And Settled, And Be Not Moved Away From The Hope Of The Gospel, Which Ye Have Heard, And Which Was Preached To Every Creature Which Is Under Heaven; Whereof I Paul Am Made A Minister; 

[28] Whom We Preach, Warning Every Man, And Teaching Every Man In All Wisdom; That We May Present Every Man Perfect In Christ Jesus:

Ephesians 4:11-15 

And He Gave Some, Apostles; And Some, Prophets; And Some, Evangelists; And Some, Pastors And Teachers; For The Perfecting Of The Saints, For The Work Of The Ministry, For The Edifying Of The Body Of Christ: Till We All Come In The Unity Of The Faith, And Of The Knowledge Of The Son Of God, Unto A Perfect Man, Unto The Measure Of The Stature Of The Fulness Of Christ: That We Henceforth Be No More Children, Tossed To And Fro, And Carried About With Every Wind Of Doctrine, By The Sleight Of Men, And Cunning Craftiness, Whereby They Lie In Wait To Deceive; But Speaking The Truth In Love, May Grow Up Into Him In All Things, Which Is The Head, Even Christ:

Colossians 2:6-9 

As Ye Have Therefore Received Christ Jesus The Lord, So Walk Ye In Him: Rooted And Built Up In Him, And Stablished In The Faith, As Ye Have Been Taught, Abounding Therein With Thanksgiving. Beware Lest Any Man Spoil You Through Philosophy And Vain Deceit, After The Tradition Of Men, After The Rudiments Of The World, And Not After Christ. For In Him Dwelleth All The Fulness Of The Godhead Bodily.

We are to read our Bible, to gain full knowledge of  Jesus Christ. We read our Bible, to be grounded and settled in The Hope Of The Gospel.  

We are to read our Bibles to be built up in Jesus Christ. 

We are to read our Bible, to be solidified in Grace. 

Read your Bible. So many Christians just read and know what others have told them.  Learn for yourself, and be sure what others are saying is the Truth Of The Gospel and not just their opinion. Don't just read little quotes from other people, get The Word Of God From God. His Holy Spirit is inside you to teach you about Jesus Christ. I just plead with you today to read your Bible and start of course in The New Testament. The New Testament is where you will find the whole word about Jesus Christ. The Old Testament prophesies about Jesus Christ, but The New Testament is where He Came to fulfill the prophecies. Hide His Word In Your Heart.
