Evil has no more Power

Evil has no more Power

Because of the increase of wickedness, the love of most will grow cold, but he who stands firm to the end will be saved. Matthew 24:12-13 NIV

I think that evil or sin, when it comes to its full maturity, is what sends us away from the presence of God and straight to Hell. Even though evil seems so pervasive, working itself out through the acts of men, evil is ultimately powerless. We know that evil was overpowered by the cross (John 16:33). We know that evil was undone by the empty grave of Christ. We know that where sin abounded, grace did much more abound (Romans 5:20) for those who repent. And this same super-power that dethroned sin and uprooted evil lives in us! – 1 John 5: 4 & 5

Sin is the sore-loser that refuses to believe he has lost. Though sin rages on, always looking for a rematch, it has unequivocally failed and is doomed for Hell. Know that if we stand firm with Christ till the end, we will be saved. Know that to stand with Christ is to stand with the victor over every evil and every illness of body and spirit in this world. And the one that overcame sin and death lives in you through the Holy Spirit. Our hope has always been planted securely in Christ! And evil has no power to steal you from the hand of God when you have come to Him by way of Christ Jesus!
