The only standard of a life worthy of living is what you know is true and that a life worth living must have only one standard as its base and that is gods’ word.
I believe only in the literal inerrant infallible word of god: nothing more and certainly nothing less. There is nothing else. It is God whom I love and serve.
I believe only in the birth-death-resurrection and the ascension of our lord Jesus Christ. His burial also.
I pattern my life after these passages & scripture: Romans 12:2, 2nd Timothy 2:15, and 2nd Timothy 3:10-17, and 2nd Timothy 4:2 and 5.
No man of God is of any value or worth without a passion and purpose in life to be like Christ and to be a model and an example for his sheep to follow. He must be a compassionate shepherd.
