Daily Bread - Nov 20 2006

Jesus gave himself for us, that he might redeem us from all iniquity, and purify unto himself a peculiar people, zealous of good works. He did this in the body of his flesh through death, to present us holy and unblameable and unreproveable in his sight. So that we may be a glorious church, not having spot, or wrinkle, or any such thing; but that we should be holy and without blemish (Titus 2:14; Colossians 1:22; Ephesians 5:27).

It is Jesus who shall also confirm us unto the end, that we may be blameless in the day of our Lord Jesus Christ. For He has sanctify us wholly; so that our whole spirit and soul and body may be preserved blameless unto the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ (1 Corinthians 1:8; 1 Thessalonians 5:23). So that we may be blameless and harmless, the sons of God, without rebuke, in the midst of a crooked and perverse nation, among whom we shine as lights in the world.

Therefore, beloved, seeing that we look for such things, be diligent that you may be found of him in peace, without spot, and blameless (Philippians 2:15; 2 Peter 3:14).

Be blessed,

Pastor Mark Spitsbergen
