"It is because of him that you are in Christ Jesus, who has become for us wisdom from God—that is, our righteousness, holiness and redemption. " 1 Corinthians 1:30
What a privilege it is, to be those who are chosen by the Almighty, Sovereign Lord. In these days, when we see all forms of evil around us, and so often, when we ourselves struggle with sin, it is so wonderful to have our Father, who gave His only Son for us. Such is His love for us, who never deserved it. He's been so gracious to have mercy on wretched ones like us and choosing us even before the foundation of the world, saving us by the redeeming work of Jesus Christ on the cross for us. Paul puts it so well, when he writes, 'For the message of the cross is foolishness to those who are perishing, but to us who are being saved it is the power of God. For it is written: "I will destroy the wisdom of the wise; the intelligence of the intelligent I will frustrate."' 1 Corinthians 1:17-19.
Praise be to Him for all that He has done for His chosen ones. It is with this similar God given vision, that enabled some of His body members, to gather together for fellowship. He's constantly teaching us and building us up in Him. In these last days, the truth is being revealed in its purest form, undoing the work of the adversary.
