Title: The crown of life
Text verse: James 1: 12
Blessed is the man who endures temptation; for when he has been approved, he will receive the crown of life which the Lord has promised to those who love Him.
Message:
We summon up all our willpower in order to attain salvation.
Summary:
- In order to attain salvation, we must believe. The proper kind of faith develops willpower.
- The image of the crown also applies to those who are accepted at the return of Jesus and who will be enveloped by His glory.
- The power that Jesus Christ will exercise in the kingdom of peace on earth will not be of an earthly nature, but rather of a spiritual nature. The gospel will be proclaimed both here and in the beyond.
