You speak of a Lord you do not know and you speak of a Lord who does not know you... Many who do not know him are like a double-minded man. You're tossed to and fro by the many winds. Make your calling and election sure.
Many who do not take their cross up daily and follow him cannot be one of his disciples... Those who know him will follow him even if it means losing their own life. Many will say like Peter did and say they will follow him but because their faith wavers on who he is, many of you will fall away.
