For I am already being poured out as a drink offering, and the time of my departure is at hand. I have fought the good fight, I have finished the race. I have kept the faith. 2 Timothy 4:6-7

 

From a persecutor of Christians (Saul), converted to apostle Paul, who promoted Christ to first century Christians and established several churches; his works carried on the gospel of Christ to millions and continues today. Just imagine, if no one shared the gospel to others, you would have no understanding of God’s gift for salvation. Paul, like many others in the bible gave their life, sacrificing family, their safety and well being, just to share the good news.

 

If you are a Christian, you have much to be thankful for, as those who’ve gone before you have testified this great message and have died for the cause. I encourage you to take time to read scripture and study the history of God’s word and how it was written over 1,000 years ago and is now in your hands. Thank God for these brave men who surrendered their life for the cause of Christ. You’ve got the best book ever written, which should be treated with the most upmost respect. God bless!
