Hanging On For Dear Life

© 1996 By Mary Lois Bierman



Just me, bumbling to my self after talking with people, and seeing mail from from people that were hurt, and mixed up after leaving a former Church affiliation. Back 1978 when we left an organization we had been for years told that if anyone left that organization our souls were in danger. This was the teaching.

We got our Bible, got down on our knees, and prayed for our Father to teach us His truth. I love Romans 8: so that was a comfort as well as some other scriptures.

We put our feet solidly on the Rock, on the Bible, the Father and the Word. That is where knowledge stands and we would stand or fail.

On judgement day it is not going to be any organization or man standing behind us to help us out if a mistake was made by them. We have to prove for ourselves what truth is and hang on to it for dear life. It is us and Them so to speak. ( Father and Son ) Meanwhile back on earth daily operations we fellowship to edify each other. To help each other spiritually, physically, and emotionally.

We see in early times that when they fellow shipped it was all week long. They ate meals together. Searched to see if what someone told them was true or not. They lived in each others presence by the area they lived in. We see in 1 Cor.14:26 what their meeting were like. It does not say this is a Sabbath meeting, but when they came together. It also was not the Sabbath it was talking about when they were told to not forsake assembling themselves together as they saw the time drawing near. It was a day to day thing with them. Standing together in prayer when the times of testing comes makes us stronger as we remind each other of the promises given to us.

I wish I could see people not clinging to a "Church", organization or a person. In their talking about their walk with the Father, give the Father the praise. Clinging to the Father, heart, mind and soul. If we walk each day with Him then the future will take care of itself. His Holy Spirit gives us a sound mind and love, not fear.

Don't let anyone rob you of this, by telling you that you are lost if you are not attached to them! Let the Father light your path.
