RUNNING THE RACE

We are running a race; our purpose is to please God and do His Will and our goal is to make Heaven at last with great rewards. If we know the value of the race we are involved in and the things which God has prepared for us at the end we will sell all that we have and buy them! Run in such a way that you may obtain the prize of our race. You therefore must endure hardship as a good soldier of Jesus Christ. Take heed to yourself and to the Doctrine. Continue in them for in doing this you will save both yourself and those who hear you.
