Steadfast/Unmovable

1 Corinthians 15:58


Therefore, my beloved brethren, be ye

STEADFAST, UNMOVABLE

always abounding in the work of the Lord, forasmuch as ye know that your labour is not in vain in the Lord.

( KJV)


Steadfast and Unmovable 

Pastor Ronald. L. White Sr.

Our society is ever-changing, but the core values of the church must not. The very survival of the church lies in its ability to be steadfast and unmovable in witnessing, faith sharing, and spreading the gospel of Jesus Christ to all the world.
Times like these may require the church to change its posture, the way we do things, but the Great Commission will never change. (Matthew 28:18-20) The saving of souls and overall kingdom building must always be our main priority and focus. Since its conception, the church has invested in holistically caring for the community.

I believe we are living in the last days and time is winding up. There are many evils existing in our world today. As believers, we must remain focused on the gospel message of love and forgiveness. We must be unwavering in dispersing Christ’s message of acceptance, diversity, and inclusiveness. Jesus said: Come unto me all……. (Matthew 11:28). We must love even our enemies.  

I further believe churches are suffering from a lack of dedicated and committed people. Although some churches are still experiencing growth, the recent pandemic greatly damaged an already declining church population. Many church members are still in self-isolation and others are forever members of the virtual church environment, which in former days was the domain of our sick and shut-in members.

With these things in mind, YMT’s theme for the 2022-2023 conference year is taken from the biblical scripture found in 1st Corinthians 15:58 -  Therefore, my beloved brethren, be ye steadfast, unmovable, always abounding in the work of the Lord, forasmuch as ye know that your labour is not in vain in the Lord.
Our theme is both a challenge and clarion call for believers everywhere to remain faithful, loyal, and committed to our charge and their calling. As ambassadors and advocates for the Kingdom of Heaven, let us always be abounding in the works of the Lord.
May God give you strength! 
God Bless You!
