TODAY’S WORD…

.

Jesus said,

“Those who declare publicly that they belong to me,

I will do the same for them before my Father in heaven.

But those who reject me publicly,

I will reject before my Father in heaven.”

.

– Matthew 10:32-33 (GNT)

REFLECTION…

.

Here Jesus tells us that public confession of our faith in Him

– whatever the consequences –

is an indispensable condition for eternal salvation.

After the Judgment,

Christ will welcome those who have given testimony of their faith

and condemn those whom fear caused to be ashamed of Him.

.

As Christians, we give public testimony of our faith

especially by the manner in which we behave;

by the way we live;

the way we act;

the way we think;

the way we dress;

by what we say and do;

by always being ready to forgive;

by loving and caring for others;

by obeying the Lord’s commandments.

.

As Christians, we give public testimony of our faith,

when every moment of the day,

we love the Lord our God

with all our heart, mind, soul and strength

…and love and care for all others.
