4 For everything that was written in the past was written to teach us, so that through endurance and the encouragement of the Scriptures we might have hope.
Romans 15:4
Consider This:
+ When our hope in God’s promises determines our actions, faith grows.
+ God’s promises determined their actions, and their obedient actions made their faith grow.
+ Like any spiritual transformation, conversion must begin with an honest and a sincere admission that we need God's trans-formative power in our lives
