Paul EXHORTS the believer to be STEADFAST (SETTLED) and
UNMOVEABLE (NOT REMOVED) from ALWAYS ABOUNDING in the WORK of the LORD (I Corinthians 15:58)
Paul EXHORTS the believer to be UNBLAMEABLE and UNREPROVEABLE
in God's sight (Colossians 1:22) in terms of being PERFECT (COMPLETE) concerning GOD'S MIGHTY WORKING
in them (Colossians 1:28-29) by being GROUNDED and SETTLED in the FAITH and NOT MOVED AWAY from
the HOPE of the GOSPEL (Colossians 1:23)
It is called a LIVELY (LIVING) HOPE that is FOUNDED UPON
"the RESURRECTION of JESUS CHRIST from the DEAD" (I Peter 1:3)
and, thus, the Lord said, "because I LIVE, YE shall LIVE also" (John 14:19)
Paul REJOICED over believers who were STEDFAST (SETTLED)
concerning their FAITH in Christ (Colossians 2:5)
"AS ye therefore have RECEIVED Christ Jesus the Lord,
SO WALK ye in Him" (Colossians 2:6), i.e. "by GRACE through FAITH" (Ephesians 2:8) - "ABOUNDING with THANKSGIVING" (Colossians 2:7)
as ye did in the RECEIVING of GOD'S GIFT of Eternal Life (Ephesians 2:8 cf.Romans 6:23)
Paul EXPLAINS that the believer's LABOR is NOT VAIN in
the Lord (I Corinthians 15:58)
Paul EXHORTS the believer to be NOT "WEARY in WELL
DOING: for in DUE SEASON we shall REAP if we FAINT NOT" (Galatians 6:9), i.e. FAINT NOT at SUFFERING in SERVICE by LOOKING at things which
are NOT SEEN and ETERNAL (II Corinthians 4:15-18)
The SAME GRACE which SAVES (Titus 2:11)
also TEACHES HOW to LIVE NOW (Titus 2:12)
by LOOKING to "the GLORIOUS APPEARING of the GREAT GOD and our SAVIOR JESUS CHRIST (Titus 2:13)
