what is the end to all of our of means? - 2
so now the question is what the purpose of fighting a war, what is the purpose in living a holy life, what is the purpose in finishing the race... what is the end to all of our means? what makes victory worth the battle? in the end will we have a prize worth the struggle? Yahweh tells Abraham that he(Yahweh) is Abraham's eternally great reward; Paul declares that Jesus is the prize at the end of his race. if the end of all our labors, passions, and journeys does not end in the man Jesus Christ; then have we labored in vain? Jesus came that we might know the Father, the Father sent Jesus that we might be restored to relationship with the Father. Matt. 7 declares that miracles, casting out demons and prophecy will not have an effect on eternal life...
so what will be the end to our means?

What is the end to all out means?
I've attempted time and again to try and figure out... what is the purpose of all we're fighting for? Why live a holy life? Why do we separate ourselves from the world?
Yesterday I pondered these questions on my bed. I've faced the enemy of soul on these battlefields before, but not without my so called props... my religious plans, ideas and standards. They have a way of protecting you long enough to give you pride for a fall. When the question is love for a King, or lust of the flesh with no one to impress or make happy, It all comes down to letting the King make his speech for my allegiance and love.
