In the first chapter of Philippians Paul was thanking God for the ones who had come under the saving grace of Jesus Christ He said this to the Church there, "Being confident of this very thing, that he which hath begun a good work in you will perform it until the day of Jesus Christ” God has called us to come unto fellowship with his Son and the Word tells us that he is faithful. Paul was confident that God would keep all those who come under the saving grace of his son, Jesus Christ until our Lord and Savior comes after his Church. We can depend on him to bring us safely through to the end if we stay faithful to him. When the enemy comes against us and tells us we can’t make it we must remember the Lord has said that his grace is sufficient to keep us through every trial and temptation we may face day by day. We must believe his Word and learn to depend on him. Tabernacle Holiness Church By REBA MITCHELL Men’s Fellowship - Monday night, Feb. 7th. Ladies Auxiliary - Tuesday night, Feb. 8th.
