Among them we too all formerly lived in the lusts of our flesh, indulging the desires of the flesh and of the mind, and were by nature children of wrath, even as the rest. But God, being rich in mercy, because of His great love with which He loved us, even when we were dead in our transgressions, made us alive together with Christ (by grace you have been saved), and raised us up with Him, and seated us with Him in the heavenly places in Christ Jesus so that in the ages to come He might show the surpassing riches of His grace in kindness toward us in Christ Jesus. For by grace you have been saved, it is a gift of God; not as a result of works, so that no one may boast. For we are His workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehands so that we would walk in them.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6781463817909023685-3796443775362451221?l=hefflin.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://hefflin.blogspot.com/feeds/3796443775362451221/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=6781463817909023685&amp;postID=3796443775362451221' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6781463817909023685/posts/default/3796443775362451221'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6781463817909023685/posts/default/3796443775362451221'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://hefflin.blogspot.com/2007/08/you-are-made-alive-in-christ.html' title='You are Made Alive in Christ'/><author><name>Hefflin</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/03712320911981958400</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6781463817909023685.post-3150098530646718705</id><published>2007-08-29T23:11:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2007-08-29T23:38:45.998-07:00</updated><title type='text'>To all Brothers and Sisters in Christ</title><content type='html'>I have decided to &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_0"&gt;create&lt;/span&gt; this blog in an attempt to reach my Christian friends both here in the States and abroad such as Hawaii, Guam, and &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_1"&gt;Palau&lt;/span&gt;. My intentions are to encourage you in your faith in Christ Jesus wherever you are and what kind of circumstances you are face with. Christian life is not as easy as some may think it should be.  But rather, &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_2"&gt;Christianity&lt;/span&gt; is hard in a sense that we ought to seek God with all our hearts and with all our minds and with all our strengths. At the same time we need the help of the Holy Spirit (God's Spirit) in us to lead and direct us at all times as we pursue such great task. It is difficult because we have to die to our self every single day in order for Christ to &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_3"&gt;truly&lt;/span&gt; reign within us. This kind of life is a free GIFT from God, but can only be attain through faith by accepting Jesus Christ into our hearts to become LORD and SAVIOR.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;My hearts desire is that my fellow &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_4"&gt;Palauan&lt;/span&gt; brothers and sisters in Christ be encouraged and be motivated to seek God by spending time reading His Word (THE BIBLE). God has a Word for each Child of HIS. Therefore, I &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_5"&gt;truly&lt;/span&gt; believe that when one spends time reading HIS WORDS, they will know what HE expects of them. That is my aim for having this BLOG.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6781463817909023685-3150098530646718705?l=hefflin.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://hefflin.blogspot.com/feeds/3150098530646718705/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=6781463817909023685&amp;postID=3150098530646718705' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6781463817909023685/posts/default/3150098530646718705'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6781463817909023685/posts/default/3150098530646718705'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://hefflin.blogspot.com/2007/08/to-all-brothers-and-sisters-in-christ.html' title='To all Brothers and Sisters in Christ'/><author><name>Hefflin</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/03712320911981958400</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry></feed>
