Edify Comfort and Respect One Another As Christ Did

Edify comfort and respect one another that is what we are about as Christians. Strife is not of God it is straight out of the pit of hell and it has no right nor power over a BORN AGAIN Christians…

1 Thessalonians 5:9-11 (NKJV) 9 For God did not appoint us to wrath, but to obtain salvation through our Lord Jesus Christ, 10 who died for us, that whether we wake or sleep, we should live together with Him.
11 Therefore comfort each other and edify one another, just as you also are doing.

After reading this scripture I had to return to Galatians 2:17-21New King James Version (NKJV)
17 “But if, while we seek to be justified by Christ, we ourselves also are found sinners, is Christ, therefore, a minister of sin? Certainly not! 18 For if I build again those things which I destroyed, I make myself a transgressor. 19 For I through the law died to the law that I might live to God. 20 I have been crucified with Christ; it is no longer I who live, but Christ lives in me; and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave Himself for me. 21 I do not set aside the grace of God; for if righteousness comes through the law, then Christ died in vain.”

As a Christian, I have been set free from this world and it garbage and I can and will comfort and edify those around me–here is a checklist to know that one is saved so one can openly and willing comfort and edify others.

1 I have been crucified with Christ Galatians 2:20, Romans 6:6
2 I no longer live now Christ lives in me Galatians 2:20
3 I am now as a Christian a Joint Heir with Jesus Romans 8:17
4 I am saved by Grace through Faith Ephesians 2:8-10
5 I now live by Faith in Jesus Galatians 2:20, 2 Corinthians 5:7

This is a simple way to know that one is saved totally there is no room for pride nor self. We are saved by grace through faith. Being a Christian is not a game it is a life.  It is not I hope it is I know.  We as Christians are not or no longer under the law we are saved by grace through faith. For according to Galatians 2:21 if the law could have saved us Jesus died for absolutely nothing.  Let us edify and comfort one another stand with and for each other.
