WHAT MAKES YOU STAND?
If going through salvation and life as a Christian was automatic once one got born again then there would be no one backsliding. In the bible we are carefully warned to be careful if we are at the top for it is easy for one to be brought down by one below. Paul also warns us to be careful not to think too highly of ourselves and I think we unknowingly and sometimes knowingly think that it is easy for us to stand especially if we have been on the salvation journey for a number of years.
