Hold to the Rod


At Zone Conference our Mission President showed this cement block with the rebar in it. He talked about how if you built a house without the rebar the cement will crack and fall apart. If the earth shakes the building it will fall apart. The rebar holds it together. He likened the cement and the rebar to our life.   Christ (the Gospel) being the rebar, holding it together. The cement being our lives, the church, faith, prayer, testimonies, others opinions , not understanding doctrine, etc. It we let the outside world shake us we will crack and fall apart. We need to have a firm foundation in Christ so that when the anti-Christ (whatever they may be) try to shake us we will stand firm in the Gospel of Jesus Christ. This is our prayer for all of our family, everyone of you.
