Fringe Benefits December 27, 2014

[ Bless the Lord, O My Soul ] [ Of David. ] Bless the Lord, O my soul, and all that is within me, bless his holy name! Bless the Lord, O my soul, and forget not all his benefits,
Psalm 103:1-2 ESV

"Forget not all his benefits, "

All too often the world knows of only the eternal-life benefit of Christianity.  The whole heaven or hell thing.  While that is the most permanent benefit of becoming a believer, the life of a child of God is filled with numerous benefits this side of heaven.

Peace.  Guidance.  Joy.  Discernment.  Fellowship.  Understanding.  Patience.  Contentment.

I wonder if that part of salvation were preached more Christianity would have an increased desirability to a lost and dying world.
