Perseverance is the narrow gate and the strait way into GOD'S kingdom. All of the apostles, prophets, saints who are beloved of GOD came into the kingdom this way. Those who are found faithful and true to the end will be made worthy to receive the crown of life!!

It tells us in Matthew 24v13, 'But he who endures to the end shall be saved.'In Revelation 13v10 we are told, '...here is the patience and the faith of the saints.'If we suppose, we on our own, have the perseverance to continue without God, well, we have already lost.Some do not have the patience to wait for the answers to their prayers. Hence, they become dull in their prayers, until they leave off prayer altogether.If we lack, we need to ask of God, who gives to all men liberally, James 1v5.I know of many who started the Christian journey. Where are they now? You probably know of some as well.Good topic, and much to consider in these words.God bless.
