12.15.13 Accepted by the Lord - John P Stolwyk

So many are seeking to find rest from their works by their works, this is the vicious cycle of unrest that the law brings. In this message John shows how understanding God’s acceptance and approval of us in Christ establishes a place where our faith rests. In this relaxed state we are no longer preoccupied or distracted with what we have to do to get closer to God. Rest allows us to become preoccupied with who we are, clearly hearing God’s voice. This inturn enables us to abide in a conscious state of righteousness, peace and joy in the Holy Spirit.
