As Bible Christians, it is imperative that we remember why we are walking the paths of righteousness and this walk is not an easy one. In order to be considered a worthy candidate for the first resurrection, we must withstand and overcome many obstacles in our paths that can hinder us from receiving the crown promised in the end. Many of us have and still encounter opposition from colleagues, family, friends, and even our own spouses. As followers of Light, we must be constantly reassured of, and convinced, that we WILL receive our reward in the end.
