An excerpt from "University Church Of Christ.org" entitled, "Salvation Is Nearer Than We Believed" by Isaac Torres, states: "We must remember that “salvation is nearer than when we believed" and so we must keep pressing on in our imitation of God. Grow in your love. Grow in your faith. Grow in your encouragement. Grow in your prayer life. Grow in your studies. Keep growing and do not stop for we are not promised tomorrow. Judgment is coming. It will be a rejoiceful occasion if you are on the Lord’s side.
Time flies, so do not let judgment catch you unprepared. It is now nearer than when we first believed. And, thanks be to God, our salvation is nearer than before. Are you ready for it? This article may be viewed at: Salvation is nearer than we believed/universitychurchofchrist.org
