Lessons from Christ.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Two exemplary life style of Christ to be replicated, that guarantees life eternal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
1 Peter 2:21 For even hereunto were ye called: because Christ also suffered for us, leaving us an example, that ye should follow his steps:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Philippians 2:5 Let this mind be in you, which was also in Christ Jesus: 2:6 Who, being in the form of God, thought it not robbery to be equal with God: 2:7 But made himself of no reputation, and took upon him the form of a servant, and was made in the likeness of men: 2:8 And being found in fashion as a man, he humbled himself, and became obedient unto death, even the death of the cross.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Humility and obedience.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
God relates only with the humble.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Psalms 138:6 Though the LORD be high, yet hath he respect unto the lowly: but the proud he knoweth afar off.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Isaiah 57:15 For thus saith the high and lofty One that inhabiteth eternity, whose name is Holy; I dwell in the high and holy place, with him also that is of a contrite and humble spirit, to revive the spirit of the humble, and to revive the heart of the contrite ones.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Isaiah 66:2 For all those things hath mine hand made, and all those things have been, saith the LORD: but to this man will I look, even to him that is poor and of a contrite spirit, and trembleth at my word.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
He require obedience from you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Jeremiah 7:23 But this thing commanded I them, saying, Obey my voice, and I will be your God, and ye shall be my people: and walk ye in all the ways that I have commanded you, that it may be well unto you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Jeremiah 11:4 Which I commanded your fathers in the day that I brought them forth out of the land of Egypt, from the iron furnace, saying, Obey my voice, and do them, according to all which I command you: so shall ye be my people, and I will be your God: 11:7 For I earnestly protested unto your fathers in the day that I brought them up out of the land of Egypt, even unto this day, rising early and protesting, saying, Obey my voice.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Hebrews 5:9 And being made perfect, he became the author of eternal salvation unto all them that obey him;<\/p>\n\n\n\n
These two virtues distinguished Jesus Christ our Lord.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Philippians 2:5 Let this mind be in you, which was also in Christ Jesus: 2:6 Who, being in the form of God, thought it not robbery to be equal with God: 2:7 But made himself of no reputation, and took upon him the form of a servant, and was made in the likeness of men: 2:8 And being found in fashion as a man, he humbled himself, and became obedient unto death, even the death of the cross.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Learn from Him and follow His example.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Matthew 11:29 Take my yoke upon you, and learn of me; for I am meek and lowly in heart: and ye shall find rest unto your souls.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Then your eternity will be guaranteed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
