The True Grace Of Jesus Week 3
Peter teaches that spiritual maturity is acquired through grace as believers shed vices, crave spiritual nourishment, and come together as living stones in God's spiritual house. Believers progress in layers as they expose themselves to Christ, nourish themselves on God's goodness, and join together in community to declare God's praises. Disobedience was part of God's plan to show mercy to both Jew and Gentile.

Colossians 1:3-14 (ESV)
3 We always thank God, the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, when we pray for you,4 since we heard of your faith in Christ Jesus and of the love that you have for all the saints, 5 because of the hope laid up for you in heaven. Of this you have heard before in the word of the truth, the gospel, 6 which has come to you, as indeed in the whole world it is bearing fruit and increasing—as it also does among you, since the day you heard it and understood the grace of God in truth, 7 just as you learned it from Epaphras our beloved fellow servant. He is a faithful minister of Christ on your behalf 8 and has made known to us your love in the Spirit.
9 And so, from the day we heard, we have not ceased to pray for you, asking that you may be filled with the knowledge of his will in all spiritual wisdom and understanding, 10 so as to walk in a manner worthy of the Lord, fully pleasing to him: bearing fruit in every good work and increasing in the knowledge of God;11 being strengthened with all power, according to his glorious might, for all endurance and patience with joy; 12 giving thanks to the Father, who has qualified you to share in the inheritance of the saints in light. 13 He has delivered us from the domain of darkness and transferred us to the kingdom of his beloved Son, 14 in whom we have redemption, the forgiveness of sins.
Stage One. Structural Analysis
(Summarize the complete passage paying attention to genre and how the truth is developed.)
Summary of Passage: In this passage Paul offers an apostolic prayer for the believers in Colossae. Prayer is an important action to Paul. He begins his prayers with thankfulness for the believers because he has heard the reports of their faith and love that is based upon the gospel. He indicates he is continually praying for the Colossian Christians and then elaborates upon what it is he is praying for as it relates to their situation. He lists how the believers will live a life “worthy of the Lord” and pleasing to the Lord. The life that is pleasing to God is a reflection of one’s salvation by Christ.

Re 04 topic 5
The document discusses the essential marks of the Church - that it is one, holy, catholic, and apostolic. It provides scriptural evidence and teachings from the Catechism to explain each mark. For the Church to be one, Christians must strive for unity through love. The Church is holy as the Holy Spirit guides believers to holiness. It is catholic or universal as Christ calls all people to salvation. And it is apostolic as built upon the foundation of the apostles' teaching.
Cst
The document discusses the definition and meaning of the word "Church" as used in the Bible versus how it is commonly used today. It argues that in the New Testament, the Church referred to a called out assembly or group of believers in a location, not a building or denomination. The Greek word "ekklesia" meant a called out group of people, and Jesus built one Church, not many different churches. The Church refers to people who have been added by God to His one body worldwide.
Inductive Bible Study - Romans 1:8-12
This is an example of the enriched inductive Bible study method. The traditional 3 step inductive Bible study method is basically O.I.A. -- observation, interpretation, and application. The 6 step enrich version includes praying and empathizing. The acronym is U.O.I.E.A.Y. which stands for urging, observing, interpreting, empathizing, application, and yearning. Urging means urging God to make His words effective in our life starting from our studying His words seriously. Yearning means based on all the first 5 steps turn each verse into a prayer. May God fulfills upon you the words that you earnestly seek to experience. Amen.
Church meaning
The document discusses the definition and biblical meaning of the word "church". It explains that the church refers to the body of believers, not a building or denomination. The Greek word "ekklesia" means "called out ones" and was used in the New Testament to refer to a group of believers called by God. The church began on the day of Pentecost and continues as one unified body, not separate denominations. Jesus is the founder and cornerstone of the church he died for.
03 March 4, 2012 Philippians, Chapter 3 Verse 10
The document contains announcements for upcoming church events, including a prayer conference, a prayer initiative to visit church members' homes, and a thank you banquet for servers. It also includes a Sunday school lesson on Philippians 3:10 about Paul's desire to know Christ personally, experience His power, and have fellowship in His sufferings.
Planting The Seed
The document discusses planting seeds of faith through sharing the gospel. It notes that while people can plant and water seeds, only God can make them grow. It analyzes passages where Paul praises churches not for numbers but for their faith, love, hope, and perseverance. The document suggests that seeds can fail to grow if snatched by Satan, choked by worldly pleasures, or discouraged by trials without developing roots. It concludes that the most important thing is faithfully planting and watering seeds, while recognizing that spiritual growth is God's work.

Romans November 01 2009 Outline
Paul sets an example of having the right motives for spiritual service and worshiping God. [1] He had a grateful spirit, thanking God for the Romans' strong faith that was known throughout the world. [2] He also had a concerned spirit, continuously praying for the Romans and their spiritual growth without taking their faith for granted. [3] Having the right motives like a grateful and concerned spirit is important for properly serving God with one's whole spirit.
Colossians sunday school - week five
This document outlines the Sunday school class for week five at Grace Bible Baptist Church. The class, taught by Pastor Chuck Brooks, will continue exploring the book of Colossians and focus on the supremacy and sufficiency of Jesus Christ as the topic for week five. The class meets in room 204.
1 Thessalonians - Cascading Hope
The document summarizes key aspects of Paul's first letter to the Thessalonians. It discusses Paul setting a true Christ-like example through thankful prayers, work of faith, labour of love, and steadfast hope. Paul established a tender relationship with believers like a nursing mother or father. He provided a transforming hope by outlining the life, love, and limitless future found in hope. Finally, Paul offered tips on Christian living including alertness, attitudes, and things to avoid.
Spiritual Gifts Week 6
The document discusses spiritual gifts and suffering according to 1 Peter. It notes that 1 Peter says suffering purifies faith and opens doors for witnessing. Spiritual gifts should be used in love and to glorify God. Suffering can prepare believers for ministry by making them ready to defend their faith. Both suffering and spiritual gifts require God's grace.
05-06-18, 2 Corinthians 4;1-18, Why Christians Should Not Give Up
This sermon discusses why Christians should not give up. It references a Bible passage encouraging believers to fix their eyes on Jesus and persevere. The sermon then summarizes a chapter from 2 Corinthians, noting that Paul explains Christians should not lose heart even when facing challenges, as they have the light of Christ within them and will be renewed each day inwardly as they proclaim the gospel, with the hope of eternal glory.

Is Lucid Dreaming Dangerous? Risks and Benefits!
Lucid Dreaming: Understanding the Risks and Benefits
The ability to control one's dreams or for the dreamer to be aware that he or she is dreaming. This process, called lucid dreaming, has some potential risks as well as many fascinating benefits. However, many people are hesitant to try it initially for fear of the potential dangers. This article aims to clarify these concerns by exploring both the risks and benefits of lucid dreaming.
The Benefits of Lucid Dreaming
Lucid dreaming allows a person to take control of their dream world, helping them overcome their fears and eliminate nightmares. This technique is particularly useful for mental health. By taking control of their dreams, individuals can face challenging scenarios in a controlled environment, which can help reduce anxiety and increase self-confidence.
Addressing Common Concerns
Physical Harm in Dreams Lucid dreaming is fundamentally safe. In a lucid dream, everything is a creation of your mind. Therefore, nothing in the dream can physically harm you. Despite the vividness and realness of the dream experience, it remains entirely within your mental landscape, posing no physical danger.
Mental Health Risks Concerns about developing PTSD or other mental illnesses from lucid dreaming are unfounded. As soon as you wake up, it's clear that the events experienced in the dream were not real. On the contrary, lucid dreaming is often seen as a therapeutic tool for conditions like PTSD, as it allows individuals to reframe and manage their thoughts.
Potential Risks of Lucid Dreaming
While generally safe, lucid dreaming does come with a few risks as well:
Mixing Dream Memories with Reality Long-term lucid dreamers might occasionally confuse dream memories with real ones, creating false memories. This issue is rare and preventable by maintaining a dream journal and avoiding lucid dreaming about real-life people or places too frequently.
Escapism Using lucid dreaming to escape reality can be problematic if it interferes with your daily life. While it is sometimes beneficial to escape and relieve the stress of reality, relying on lucid dreaming for happiness can hinder personal growth and productivity.
Feeling Tired After Lucid Dreaming Some people report feeling tired after lucid dreaming. This tiredness is not due to the dreams themselves but often results from not getting enough sleep or using techniques that disrupt sleep patterns. Taking breaks and ensuring adequate sleep can prevent this.
Mental Exhaustion Lucid dreaming can be mentally taxing if practiced excessively without breaks. It’s important to balance lucid dreaming with regular sleep to avoid mental fatigue.
Lucid dreaming is safe and beneficial if done with caution. It has many benefits, such as overcoming fear and improving mental health, and minimal risks. There are many resources and tutorials available for those interested in trying it.

sanskrit yoga mantras chanting for yoga class
Introduction
Mantra Yoga is an exact science. "Mananat trayate iti mantrah- by the Manana (constant thinking or recollection) of which one is protected or is released from the round of births and deaths, is Mantra." That is called Mantra by the meditation (Manana) on which the Jiva or the individual soul attains freedom from sin, enjoyment in heaven and final liberation, and by the aid of which it attains in full the fourfold fruit (Chaturvarga), i.e., Dharma, Artha, Kama and Moksha. A Mantra is so called because it is achieved by the mental process.
Lição 12: João 15 a 17 – O Espírito Santo e a Oração Sacerdotal | 2° Trimestr...
Esta lição é uma oportunidade para discutirmos um assunto multo mal interpretado no contexto cristão, que é o fato de algumas pessoas pensarem que o conhecer Jesus é ter a nossa vida mudada em todas as áreas, como se Deus tivesse o dever de transportar-nos deste mundo para um outro mundo onde muitas coisas maravilhosas que desejamos seriam reais. No entanto, a nossa fé não nos tira do mundo após nos convertermos; ao invés disso, permanecemos vivendo sob as mesmas circunstâncias. O propósito de Deus não é nos tirar do mundo, mas nos livrar das ações do maligno (Jo 17.15), Sendo assim, a vida eterna não significa estar fora da realidade deste mundo, mas conhecer o único Deus verdadeiro (Jo 17.3).

Astronism, Cosmism and Cosmodeism: the space religions espousing the doctrine...
This lecture created by Brandon Taylorian (aka Cometan) specially for the CESNUR Conference held Bordeaux in June 2024 provides a brief introduction to the legacy of religious and philosophical thought that Astronism emerges from, namely the discourse on transcension started assuredly by the Cosmists in Russia in the mid-to-late nineteenth century and then carried on and developed by Mordecai Nessyahu in Cosmodeism in the twentieth century. Cometan also then provides some detail on his story in founding Astronism in the early twenty-first century from 2013 along with details on the central Astronist doctrine of transcension. Finally, the lecture concludes with some contributions made by space religions and space philosophy and their influences on various cultural facets in art, literature and film.
