The foundation laid by Christ

I Corinthians 3:11 For other foundation can no man lay than that is laid, which is Jesus Christ.

Jesus Christ is the only foundation our lives can be built upon if we desire our lives to stand the test. Christ is a firm, abiding, and immovable Rock of ages, every way able to bear all the weight that God himself, or the sinner, can lay upon him. We can find salvation in no other. The doctrine of his atonement is the foundation for our hopes.

We will face real fire in our lives, with the flames rising fiercer as we walk with Christ, but only He can get us through the sorrows. In our most difficult times it is then that we are Carried By Christ.
