Section I - Knowing the Will of God


Work out your SALVATION

Holding Fast / Holding Forth

Work in scientific terms, is energy (activity) in direct proportion to the amount of force applied to it. Work, therefore, is not something that we do, but an action caused by the eternal force of Jesus Christ who is pulling us forward in Him causing us to work as a result of our place in Him. We hold fast to Him and because He is moving forward, we hold forth as light to shine as stars and we become a light unto the world.
