Not only so, but we also glory in our sufferings, because we know that suffering produces perseverance; perseverance, character; and character, hope. And hope does not put us to shame, because God’s love has been poured out into our hearts through the Holy Spirit, who has been given to us. Romans 5:3-5 (NIV)
I agree, 2Pet 3:17 states, to “Be careful not to be carried away by the errors of unprincipled people.” Yet, some are attracted to the grandstanding of it all. Some need that push to get them to, (and I pray) investigate the Scripture’s further for themselves for truth. For in the not so distant future, signs and wonders will also be carried-out so well, ‘to seduce, if it were possible, even the elect’. Jesus Himself said, “..Except ye see signs and wonders, ye will not believe.” (paraphrasing Mk 13:22 & Jn 4:48). We are in that era, if it’s not seen it’s not believed, sad to say.
A timely message, TY. God bless you wholeheartedly!
Yes to the foundation in the sand. Add to that yes the fact that the house being built is a building not of Christ, but of humans.
