Allegiance to the King

This world has just two kinds of people in it: those who delight in God's Word and live by it, and those who do not; those who live in glad allegiance to God's anointed King, Jesus Christ, and those who do not.
Despite all this world's delightful diversity, God insists there are just these two kinds of people, living in two directions, toward two very different eternities.
Our true allegiances -- not our circumstances -- determine our happiness, whether we prosper, even our eternal security.
