We do not strive to obtain Salvation.

You guys may not; but most Catholics do.

Happy Trails.

And they’re going to fail and fail miserably because nobody can attain salvation by their own efforts.

And therein is the reason we strive to awaken you to what God offers and is detailed in His Word. Strive and strive, but you will not work your way to being Born from Above. BUT, if you want to strive, just bow your head and say Thank You, Lord, that you are in this moment my Deliverer, my Savior, my Only Hope. Thank you for your life, your death for me, and your resurrection to Prove Your Promise to be my Savior now and for ever more. You do that and we have God’s guarantee that He will perform. THEN you can get to work striving to follow His Life within you never to be separated from you.
