Higher Ground
“1 If then you were raised with Christ, seek those things which are above, where Christ is, sitting at the right hand of God. 2 Set your mind on things above, not on things on the earth. 3 For you died, and your life is hidden with Christ in God. 4 When Christ who is our life appears, then you also will appear with Him in glory.” (Colossians 3:1-4)
As Christians we must continually strive for perfection, pressing on toward new heights, all the while having our feet planted on the “Rock”, which is the word of God. We live on the created earth, yet this is not our home for we are waiting for that city whse builder and maker is God (Hebrews 11:10) “For here we have no continuing city, but we seek the one to come. Therefore by Him let us continually offer the sacrifice of praise to God, that is, the fruit of our lips, [a]giving thanks to His name.” (Hebrews 13:14-15).
To achieve these things we must never be lacking in effort, and desire for growth. In this lesson we’ll talk about two laws that will help us to avoid being everlastingly lost.
