The Purpose

The purpose of this blog is to encourage the family of Four Mile Church to eat God's word on a more regular basis; to be nourished and fortified. Mile markers help you to know how far you have come and how much further you have to go. God's word is like a mile marker. My prayer is that this simple blogg helps you to partake in God's word and prayer on a more regular basis.



Please share your insights and revelations if you think they may encourage another brother or sister in Christ.

This Coming Week - Encounters with Holiness

Each day will have a portion of scripture that depicts an encounter of Holiness.

What is holiness? 1 Peter 3:15 says "But in your hearts set apart Christ as Lord. Always be prepared to give an answer to everyone who asks you to give the reason for the hope that you have. But do this with gentleness and respect,"

Holiness is to be set apart. God is set apart from us because he is able to demonstrate love perfectly, justice perfectly, mercy perfectly. He is completely self sufficient, lacking in nothing.

What happens when a we encounter a holy God?
