OUR ASSURANCES UNDER GRACE-- By Robert E. Hanna



Scripture Reading: Philippians 4:19

From infancy, the mortal soul cries out for assurance.  The yearning is often satisfied by parent, pastor, patron or  peer; but these are frequently misguided and temporary  consolations. Any assurance received from God, however,  may be relied upon without reservation. Knowing that we are  powerless to generate our own motivations, we find  confidence in the assurance that "The love of Christ   constraineth us" (II Corinthians 5:14).

To the faithful, there is no restriction of encouragement  and fortification from on high. The apostle attests that to  those saints, who prayerfully submit themselves to His watch-  care and preservation, "the peace of God, which passeth all  understanding, shall keep your hearts and minds through  Christ Jesus" (Philippians 4:7). "And God is able to make all  grace abound toward you" (II Corinthians 9:8).

But the most stimulating of all assurances is the  affirmation of our condition as members of the Body of Christ.  "For in Him dwelleth all the fulness of the Godhead bodily.  AND YE ARE COMPLETE IN HIM, which is the Head of all  principality and power" (Colossians 2:9-10). In the light of  our heavenly position, the apostle exclaims, "If God be for us,  who can be against us?" (Romans 8:31) Close fellowship with  God is the secret to our enjoyment of maximum assurance.  How true the words of the prophet, "Thou wilt keep him in  perfect peace, whose mind is stayed on Thee: because he  trusteth in Thee" (Isaiah 26:3). "My God shall supply all your  need according to His riches in glory."


How God Saves Men
Believing Christ DIED, that’s HISTORY.
Believing Christ DIED for YOU SINS and Rose again that’s SALVATION.
Read Romans 1:16, Romans 10:9-10 and 1. Corinthians 15:1-4
