God bless you for taking your time to study.

CONTINUE IN FAITH TO THE END 
 
TUESDAY AUGUST 9th

TEXT: Acts 14: 20-23
Key verse: Colossians 1: 23, “If ye continue in the faith grounded and settled, and be not moved away from the hope of the gospel, which ye have heard, [and] which was preached to every creature which is under heaven; whereof I Paul am made a minister;”
To continue in faith is a commission and expectation of every believer. Believers should continue in faith so that they are grounded, settled, and established; and this should be the pattern of their journey until they come to the end of their faith. Faith should not stop; it is utmost and paramount that every believer continues to the end because that is where salvation is secured. 
1 Peter 1:9 Receiving the end of your faith, even the salvation of your souls
John 8:30-32 30 As he spake these words, many believed on him. 31 Then said Jesus to those Jews which believed on him, If ye continue in my word, then are ye my disciples indeed; 32 And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.
The prophets and apostles knew the importance of continuing in faith. Elijah’s mantle was passed to Elisha for faith to continue. The apostle Paul in his missionary journeys made a practice of going back to visit the believers, confirming the souls of the disciples, and exhorting them to continue in faith. Peter also exhorted the brethren to add to their faith, and virtue… 2 Peter 1: 5. 
Adding to our faith and continuing in faith is a daily exercise of the believer that wants to see the successful end of their faith. It involves continuing in prayer, continuing in brotherly love, continuing with the word of God, continuing in the apostle’s doctrine, and continuing in one accord. We should not be continuing in sin but faith. ‘What shall we say then, should we continue in sin that grace may abound? God forbid’ (Romans 6:1). Let us continue in faith and be steadfast unto the end.

Thought for the day: Continue to the end and you shall wear the crown of life

Song for the day: Continue, Jesus says continue, I am coming very soon…

Bible reading for the day: 
Psalms 85-87; Romans 9

For taking your time to study remain blessed. August Tuesday 27th TOPIC: CORRECT WATER BAPTISM TEXT: Mark 16:15-16 KEY VERSE: Matthew 28:19 Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost. The believer requires water baptism. The baptism that Jesus commanded is in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost. It is done by immersion in water because the three Persons are One. In Acts of the Apostles, the people were baptizing in the name of Jesus. They used the phrase “in the name of Jesus” to indicate that the baptism was carried out as authorized by Jesus, and the baptism authorized by Jesus is that which is done in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost. It is not to say that they dip people in water and say, “I baptize you in the name of Jesus.” The name of Jesus cannot represent the Godhead. The Father is not Jesus, the Holy Spirit is not Jesus, Jesus is God who be
