We will fall…
After the supper the apostles were joyous and sang.
Jesus then said they would all fall away.
When we worship do our lives ces reflect the image that we create? Are we transformed? Do we simply return to the way of life we had?
Our energies are high when we are in the direct presence of God. But we quickly fall away.
Finding Yourself
“Know thyself..” is best applied when we look at our creator and discover what we were supposed to be! We find we are not “good” at the core.
The assumption today is that we are basically good.
Romans 3:10-18
God’s truth ALWAYS trumps our truth.
We need to spend time in the living word. This is how we see the truth of ourselves and the path we need to take to transform ourselves.
Spiritual Maturity Manifests in Thankful Obedience
Conformity is what matters.
Faith, without works, is dead. -James
If our promise is eternal life, what kind of person should get this? Who would we trust? Are there responsibilities that will be good Ben to those eternal?
We do not earn our salvation, but can we live a live that brings glory to God who has given us this salvation.
My Obedience is my testimony to God. Not to earn eternal life but to be thankful for it.
