Blessed Day to Body of Christ, 1 Thessalonians 5:23-24 So now, - TopicsExpress



          

Blessed Day to Body of Christ, 1 Thessalonians 5:23-24 So now, may the God of peace make you His own completely and set you apart from the rest. May your spirit, soul, and body be preserved, kept intact and wholly free from any sort of blame at the coming of our Lord Jesus the Anointed. For the God who calls you is faithful, and He can be trusted to make it so. Always remember that God is at work in you. We do our part, yes—Paul tells us in the prior verses what that part is. But its not a striving to earn Gods favor or achieve holiness on our own. Its a result of being in close connection with Jesus and being filled with the Holy Spirit. And holiness involves the whole person; body, mind and spirit become whole in Christ. God will make it happen, not you! Isnt that reassuring? We can rest in this, as Paul urges elsewhere. This is the Good News—that God does it, not us!
