Godliness with Contentment

1Timothy 6
6 But godliness with contentment is great gain.

Colossians 3
2Set your affection on things above, not on things on the earth.
3For ye are dead, and your life is hid with Christ in God.
4When Christ, who is our life, shall appear, then shall ye also appear with him in glory.

When the glory of Christ descends upon our lives, all bondage of our lives cease to be, there bondage of sins, debts, sicknesses, unclean habits, lack, sorrows, despair, hopelessness, etc will all have to go in the presence of the glory of the Almighty.

And we, His redeemed children, have direct access to His glory in Christ Jesus.

I like this version of Colossians 3:11 (Living Bible Edition)
In this new life one's nationality or race or education or social position is unimportant; such things remain nothing. Whether a person has Christ is what matters, and he is equally available to all.


John 15
5I am the vine, ye are the branches: He that abideth in me, and I in him, the same bringeth forth much fruit: for without me ye can do nothing.
