Scripture Content

Share in suffering as a good soldier of Christ Jesus. No soldier gets entangled in civilian pursuits, since his aim is to please the one who enlisted him. An athlete is not crowned unless he competes according to the rules. Do your best to present yourself to God as one approved, a worker who has no need to be ashamed, rightly handling the word of truth.
