Jesus also, that he might sanctify the people with his own blood, suffered outside the gate.  Therefore, let us go forth to him outside the camp, bearing his reproach.  For we have no continuing city here, but we seek one to come.

Loving God’s Way

Excerpt from an email from Sister Wanda.

Pastor John,

At work I was having a heart talk with the Lord. I was telling him how much I love this life he has given me. I asked him, “How can anyone not love this life?” The Lord said back to me, “If you don’t love God’s way of life, you haven’t lived it!”

PRAISE GOD!

Hi Sister Wanda.

Your email reminds me of what Brother Frank said he was telling a congregation, moments before Jesus healed him of a life-threatening disease, back in the 1940s. He said he was telling them, “People say that holiness stinks! Holiness does not stink. The devil gets between them and holiness, and HE stinks!” At that moment, Brother Frank told me, he was completely healed of his disease, and he went home that night rejoicing.

The only people who do not believe that holy living is sweet and wonderful are those who have never lived it, just as the Lord told you, Wanda. Let’s live that kind of life in the Spirit fully and know for ourselves how wonderful it can be!

Pastor John
