Take the stand today

Would you take a stand for your faith? Are you that faithful? If someone asked you today even after this tragedy would you have the courage to take the stand or would you be afraid? Are you not ready to meet are maker?

Romans 1:16 For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God unto salvation to everyone that believeth; to the Jew first, and also to the Greek.

Acts 9:5 And he said, Who art thou, Lord? And the Lord said, I am Jesus whom thou persecutest: it is hard for thee to kick against the pricks.

On Friday October 2, 2015 9 were Killed for being Christians in Oregon. We are not sure if that was his intent but makes me think about others and their faith. Are you ashamed for being a Christian? Start now and put your stand to your Christianity today.

Stand up also to the things that are wrong at home, work, schools, and the streets. By putting a stand and showing you care might help to put some sort of stop to does who don’t believe. That’s why we are here to share the gospel and show others that they have a chance to change your ways and get to the right path.

Are you ready to take the stand, on your Christianity or would you lie and second guess your faith if you are put in the position with a gun to your head?

I am ready, be ready with me take your stand today.

Acts 26:15-18 – 15 And I said, Who art thou, Lord? And he said, I am Jesus whom thou persecutest. 16 But rise, and stand upon thy feet: for I have appeared unto thee for this purpose, to make thee a minister and a witness both of these things which thou hast seen, and of those things in the which I will appear unto thee; 17 Delivering thee from the people, and from the Gentiles, unto whom now I send thee, 18 To open their eyes, and to turn them from darkness to light, and from the power of Satan unto God, that they may receive forgiveness of sins, and inheritance among them which are sanctified by faith that is in me.

Galatians 1:11-18 - 11 But I certify you, brethren, that the gospel which was preached of me is not after man. 12 For I neither received it of man, neither was I taught it, but by the revelation of Jesus Christ. 13 For ye have heard of my conversation in time past in the Jews' religion, how that beyond measure I persecuted the church of God, and wasted it: 14 And profited in the Jews' religion above many my equals in mine own nation, being more exceedingly zealous of the traditions of my fathers. 15 But when it pleased God, who separated me from my mother's womb, and called me by his grace, 16 To reveal his Son in me, that I might preach him among the heathen; immediately I conferred not with flesh and blood: 17 Neither went I up to Jerusalem to them which were apostles before me; but I went into Arabia, and returned again unto Damascus. 18 Then after three years I went up to Jerusalem to see Peter, and abode with him fifteen days.

Galatians 2:6 - But of these who seemed to be somewhat, (whatsoever they were, it maketh no matter to me: God accepteth no man's person:) for they who seemed to be somewhat in conference added nothing to me:

Our prayers go out to the families of those who was killed Friday in Oregon.
