Continuing our discussion on the Bible pattern of confessing sin, we explore the consequences of concealing sin versus the blessedness of acknowledging sin.
Paul admonishes us to “walk worthy of the calling with which you were called.” What is that calling and how do we walk in it? We are called to walk in holiness.
Jesus teaches us to turn the other cheek and our enemies. Jesus teaches how to live as Gods as always defied his people to live. As we also see in the Old Testament.
In the Parables Jesus describes what the kingdom is like. In Romans 14 Paul describes what the kingdom IS. How do we identify what is the kingdom of heaven today?
Our hope in the great and precious promises of God help to anchor our souls through the storms of life. What are those promises? What is our inheritance in Christ?
Is confessing our sins something Christians should be doing? The Bible pattern teaches us, yes. And the apostle John also instructs us to in Christ in 1 John 1:9.
Continuing our discussion of the importance of contemplation in prayer, we elaborate on the need to contemplate how God is working in our lives and draw near to Him.
Jesus teaches, according to true righteousness, to address sin from the heart. In Matthew 5:21-37, He illustrates with three scenarios: anger , lust, and dishonesty.
In Psalm 19:14, the words of the mouth and the meditation of the heart are worship. Can contemplation with prayer to help us draw our hearts closer to God?
Jesus speaks of the kingdom coming in three different contexts and instructs His disciples to pray, "Your kingdom come." Should we still be praying this today?
Life is filled with trials. By God's grace, we don't just survive, we are given victory in Jesus. As we introduce this series, we focus on hope and promises.
We continue our study on the salt of the earth and light of the world. From these analogies, Jesus goes on to say that He came to fulfill the law. What does it mean?
The parables of Jesus have overlapping themes concerning our relationship to the kingdom, the Parables of the Tares in the Field, the Mustard Seed, and the Leaven.
In our final lesson on Grace For Sound Speech, we discuss Paul’s admonition in Colossians 4:6, “Let your speech be with Grace seasoned with salt.”
Jesus describes the effect those who strive for the qualities in the beatitudes will have on the world. They are the salt of the earth and the light of the world.
