THE FINAL ANSWER
What is the answer to life's big question, why are we here? Well, if Jesus is our Saviour:
"For the Son of man is come to save that which was lost" Matthew 18:11
"Even so it is not the will of your Father which is in heaven that one of these little ones should perish." Matthew 18:14
"And he gave some apostles and some prophets and some evangelists and some pastors and teachers. For the perfecting of the saints for the work of the ministry for the edifying of the body of Christ. Til we all come in unity of the faith and the knowledge of the Son of God unto a perfect man unto the measure of the stature of the fullness of Christ." Ephesians 4:11-13
"Let us therefore follow after the things which make for peace and things wherewith one may edify another." Romans 14:19
Amen. What drives our innermost being, our soul, our heart? Are we driven to be perfect, holy and righteous as Jesus is, so we can complete the work he has given us to do. No fanfare, no accolades, sometimes lonely and struggling, trials and pain, with supernatural joy and peace, just pressing in and on toward the prize ahead of us. Digging ever deeper and having Him dig ever deeper, going for the lost and building up the body. Amen. The salvation of souls and the edification of the Church. Is that our motivation?
