"He Can Bring us out of Ourselves."

Romans 5:6-8

6 "For when we were yet without
strength, in due time Christ died
for the ungodly.
7 For scarcely for a righteous
man will one die: yet peradventure
for a good man some would even
dare to die.
8 But God commended his love toward
us, in that, while we were yet
sinners, Christ died for us."

And surely He died to give us His
strength because He knew that mankind
was on the brink of a spiritual-
collapse and if it had gone on any
farther there might not be any coming
back

But He has breathed into us the breathe
of His Life and caused us to rise, out
of the world of darkness and
meaninglessness into a life of Light and
Peace that's fulfilling

The Path to this first begins by bringing
us out of ourselves and causing us to
live for Him first and then everyone else
He takes us out of selfishness and
covetousness and self-will so that our
life's are lived to make sure others are
fully filled

It helps our relationship with our wives
first because we do not make sure we are
taken care of no, her first
And then our children and our neighbors
and everyone that we meet
If everyone would live this way then it
would save our cities and our states; our
society and our country

It would become an instantly recompensing
action that increases until it has changed
the world.


Ephesians 4:13-15
13 "Till we all come in the unity of the faith, and of the     knowledge of the Son of God, unto a perfect man, unto the measure of the stature of the fulness of Christ:
14 That we henceforth be no more children, tossed to and fro, and carried about with every wind of doctrine, by the sleight of men, and cunning craftiness, whereby they lie in wait to deceive;
15 But speaking the truth in love, MAY GROW UP INTO HIM IN ALL THINGS, which is the head, even Christ:"
