In this sermon Past Present and Future, There are great truths that we can learn about and apply in our daily lives as we serve the Lord. The very thought of adding to your salvation good deeds of your own is simply walking by the flesh. It is fleshly efforts, so it is nothing better than flesh. Flesh and blood cannot enter the Kingdom. Sweat and works of the flesh cannot enter. Doing works to improve your position in the Kingdom only steals you out of the kingdom. Stand in Christ. What that means is that whatever you need in whatever problem you run into, realize God's power, all the fullness of the Godhead, is in the body of Christ to work for those also in that Body. So just make sure you trusted in Him alone for your salvation, and realize that any work to improve yourself has already been done on the cross. You simply have to realize that and then claim it.

• Ask God to make it come alive for you.
