"To those who are the called, beloved in God the Father, and kept for Jesus Christ: May mercy and peace and love be multiplied to you." (Jude: 1b, 2)
Consider, however, my friend: You and I are, "....kept for Jesus Christ." And, the keeping power of the Godhead is infinite. Peter affirms that you and I are,"....kept by the power of God."
With all that is afflicting the global community, all of the fear and anxiety, what a glorious WORD: "....those who are...beloved in God the Father [are] kept for Jesus Christ."
Father, in Jesus' Name, what a glorious purpose: "....kept for Jesus Christ." Amen.
When Peter, an 18 year old Norwegian, "heard the call to evangelize China, on that day he not only emptied his wallet into the collection plate, but included a small note with the words, 'and my life.'"
