6:23-24-Exhortation.

PLEASE NOTICE FROM THE FOLLOWING SCRIPTURES THAT WE ARE TO OVERCOME, REPENT, KEEP LOVING COMMANDMENTS OF JESUS CHRIST, Rom. 13: 8-10 which were from the beginning--

2 Jo: 6--And this is love, that we walk after His commandments. This is the commandment, That, as ye have heard from the beginning, ye should walk in it.

9-Whosoever transgresseth, and abideth not in the doctrine of Christ, hath not God.

10-- If there come any unto you, and bring not this doctrine, receive him not into your house, neither bid him God speed:

11--For he that biddeth him God speed is partaker of his evil deeds.

Rev. 21: 7  He that overcometh shall inherit all things; and I will be his God, and he shall be My son.---8  But the fearful, and unbelieving, and the abominable, and murderers, and whoremongers, and sorcerers, and idolaters, and all liars, shall have their part in the lake which burneth with fire and brimstone: which is the second death.

Rev. 22; 11--He that is unjust, let him be unjust still: and he which is filthy, let him be filthy still: and he that is righteous, let him be righteous still: and he that is holy, let him be holy still.

Rev. 22: 14— Blessed are they that do His commandments, that they may have right to the tree of life, and may enter in through the gates into the city. 15--For without are dogs, and sorcerers, and whoremongers, and murderers, and idolaters, and whosoever loveth and maketh a lie.

Isa. 66: 24---And they shall go forth, and look upon the carcases of the men that have transgressed against Me: for their worm shall not die, neither shall their fire be quenched; and they shall be an abhorring unto all flesh.

SO JESUS CHRIST PAVED A WAY TO FORGIVE ALL THROUGH Baptizm unto His death, to be born again in newness of life, Rom 6: 3-7, which gives HIS RIGHTEOUSNESS UNTO HOLINESS, to serve Him, Vs. 19, 22.  

AFTER THAT WE SHOULD NOT SERVE SIN, Rom. 6: 6.

ALL PRAISE AND THANKSGIVING BE TO JESUS CHRIST, THE REDEEMER AND SAVIOUR OF ALL, AMEN AND AMEN.
