\"\"The Psalmist exclaimed: \u201cIf the foundations are destroyed, what can the righteous do?” (Psalm 11:3) We live in an age of destroyed foundations in society, in families, in the church, and in individual lives. But there are truths, foundational principles, doctrines, that never go out of style. You could call these the building blocks of life.<\/p>\n

As believers we often get distracted in living life and forget the basic building blocks. What are these essential truths that form a sure foundation for life? The Apostle Paul reminds us of these in 1 Corinthians 1:30. They are: wisdom, righteousness, sanctification, and redemption.<\/p>\n

Whether these are new teachings or well-known to us, we all benefit from examining them. And lest we forget, these principles are not formed by our own strength\u2013they are found in Christ Jesus alone and are received by grace through faith in him.<\/p>\n
