What do YOU desire?

The Fort Knox of Faith

The Fort Knox of faith—is Christ! Fellowship with Christ. Walking with Him. Pondering Him. Exploring Him. The heart-stopping realization that in Him you are part of something ancient, endless, unstoppable and unfathomable. And the fact that He who can dig the Grand Canyon with His pinkie, thinks you’re worth His death on Roman timber.

Christ is the reward of Christianity. Why else would Paul make Jesus his supreme desire? He said, “I want to know Christ.” (Philippians 3:10).

Scripture says, “We all with unveiled face, beholding the glory of the Lord, are being changed into His likeness from one degree of glory to another.” (2 Corinthians 3:18) As we behold Him, we become like Him.

Do you desire the same? The cache of Christianity is Christ. Not money in the bank or a car in the garage or a healthy body or a better self-image.

The Fort Knox of faith—is Christ!
