Continuing in the Grace of God…

 Now when the congregation had broken up, many of the Jews and devout proselytes followed Paul and Barnabas, who, speaking to them, persuaded them to continue in the grace of God.—Acts 13:43


What does it mean to continue in the grace of God?  It means to depend on and embrace the goodness and kindness of Christ our Savior completely and utterly for ALL in our life.  Beloved…abide in Jesus.  Depend on His goodness and mercy to see you through this life moment by precious moment. Trust Him from start to finish. You are saved by grace and kept by grace. Jesus is the author and the finisher of our faith. He who began a good work in you will complete it. 


Fill your life with your Savior. Immerse yourself in His word and His love. Occupy yourself not with works but with Him. Then, with mouths filled with praise, stand back and watch what He does in you and through you.


Continue in God’s goodness (Romans 11:22)

Continue in the faith (Colossians 3:23)

Continue in the doctrine of Christ (2 John 1:9)

Continue in what you have learned and been assured of ( 2 Tim 3:14)


As you therefore have received Christ Jesus the Lord, so walk in Him, 7 rooted and built up in Him and established in the faith, as you have been taught, abounding in it with thanksgiving.

8 Beware lest anyone cheat you through philosophy and empty deceit, according to the tradition of men, according to the basic principles of the world, and not according to Christ. 9 For in Him dwells all the fullness of the Godhead bodily; 10 and you are complete in Him, who is the head of all principality and power.—Colossians 2:6-10
