Can't Be First If You Don't Last - David J Albert

David J Albert

Today's Pentecost, as you very well know from this morning's service, which I understand was very well explained and expounded to you. I suspect scriptures such as James 1 were mentioned, but let's just turn there again briefly and be reminded of the fact that we are God's firstfruits. There's a great deal of meaning and significance in this, as you've already heard today. James 1:18 tells us that of his God's own will, He begat us with the word of truth, that we should be a kind of firstfruits of His creatures — first ones, privileged, honored to be called early on, given responsibilities and opportunities to qualify for the Kingdom of God and Christ's second coming, and the resurrection. - Information Supplied By: Herbert W Armstrong Library
