Much more

Great Sand Dunes
.
Desire without knowledge is not good— how much more will hasty feet miss the way!

Look at the birds of the air; they do not sow or reap or store away in barns, and yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not much more valuable than they?

But the gift is not like the trespass. For if the many died by the trespass of the one man, how much more did God's grace and the gift that came by the grace of the one man, Jesus Christ, overflow to the many!

For if, by the trespass of the one man, death reigned through that one man, how much more will those who receive God's abundant provision of grace and of the gift of righteousness reign in life through the one man, Jesus Christ!

If you then, though you are evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your Father in heaven give the Holy Spirit to those who ask him!"

So come on, let's leave the preschool finger-painting exercises on Christ and get on with the grand work of art. Grow up in Christ… there's so much more. Let's get on with it!

Proverbs 19:2 Matthew 6:26 Romans 5:15 Romans 5:17 Luke 11:13 Hebrews 6:1

Drawing close to Christ produces a growing Christlikeness.
