The bible does not speak for or against making a resolution. But if we as Christians make a resolution, what kind of resolution should we make?The top ten most popular resolutins are mostly in relation to physical things. Many Christian resolutions may be to pray more, read the bible more or attend church on a regular basis. There is nothing wrong with these goals. But if there is no power in your resolution, these goals will not last, just like the physical ones. Philippians 4:13 tells us, "I can do everything through Him who gives me strength." If God is the center of our New Year's Resolutions, it has a chance for success. John 15:4 says, "I am the vine; you are the branches. If a man remains in me and I in him, he will bear much fruit; apart from me you can do nothing." If our resolution is in agreement with God's will then he will enable us to do it, but if not, then we won't receive help when needed. We must pray before we make our resolutions. Pray to the Lord for wisdom. Pray that God will give us strength to complete our goals. Don't allow failures to stop us, stay motivated. And remember to give God all the glory. For Proverbs 19:8 says, "He who gets wisdom loves his own soul; he who cherishes understanding prospers." A new year shouldn't necessarily mean a new resolution. If we put God first in our lives and seek His will, then every day will be a "new day" with Christ.

We believe that the scriptures of the Old and New Testaments are verbally and fully inspired by G-d, that they are inerrant in the original writings, and that they are of supreme and final authority in faith and life.
We believe that those who are born again possess two natures and that they may be victorious over the old through the power of the new, but that the eradication of the old nature is unscripted (?Rom 6:13)
We believe that the scriptures teach the eternal security of the believer. We reject the teaching that a public profession of faith in Jesus is license for sin. we further believe that evidence of a person's regeneration is manifested in those who keep his commandments and abide in Him (Eph 1:13-14 4:30
