“Being the right person to serve my future spouse’s needs and be a God-glorifying husband or wife”
"Acceptable" is such a loose term, so it's hard to say what is "acceptable" for any given person. After all, everyone is a different individual and their situations and maturity will vary greatly. Something that is acceptable for one person may not be acceptable for another.
Also keep in mind 1 Corinthians 10:23 (NIV), which says, "'I have the right to do anything,' you say—but not everything is beneficial. 'I have the right to do anything'—but not everything is constructive." We have many freedoms through Christ, but that doesn't mean that everything will be healthy or good for you.
This document is an introduction to a book titled "School of the Supernatural" by Ryan Wyatt. The introduction discusses how authentic Christianity is supernatural and how the book aims to show that it is every Christian's right and responsibility to live a supernatural lifestyle through their relationship with God. It notes that while some Christians shy away from the supernatural due to abuses, the book will distinguish an authentic supernatural Christian experience from counterfeits. It aims to teach readers how to interact with and experience God in supernatural ways on a daily basis, as God is completely supernatural and meant to fill the "God-shaped hole" in every person.
This document summarizes the first chapter of the book "Breaking the Curse of Poverty" by Dr. Wayne C. Gwilliam. The chapter argues that having a relationship with God based on obedience to His will is more important than an emotional relationship. It claims that teachings focusing on emotional relationship rather than obedience can lead believers into an immature faith and a "dead works" mentality that does not result in prosperity or healing. The chapter encourages believers to progress beyond an infant stage of faith to a mature stage of overcoming the devil through obedience to God's word.

This document provides a prophecy from Dr. Kenneth E. Hagin about an upcoming mighty move of God's Spirit and the emergence of a "new breed" of believers who will rise up strong in faith and do exploits. It also shares a message from Kenneth Copeland about the greatest outpouring of God's Spirit and two key areas of revelation - prosperity and God's love. Copeland feels revealing God's love through every available medium is crucial and received a commission from God to establish a place overwhelmed by love that will bring revival everywhere through radio, television, and resolving conflicts.
This document discusses strategies for effectively cultivating durable faith in young people. It notes that many teens who attend church regularly stop attending after high school.

It provides questions leaders can ask to ensure activities are beneficial and constructive rather than enslaving. The power of parental influence on faith is highlighted.

From Fizzle To Sizzle Week 2 ExperimentationErnie Zarra
The document provides an overview of a class discussing experimentation among the Baby Boomer generation during the 1960s and 1970s. It explores how the counterculture movement influenced society and the church's attempts to reach youth through new ministry paradigms. Statistics about increasing divorce rates and decreasing religious involvement are presented, raising questions about the church's role and message. Biblical passages encourage believers to walk by the Spirit rather than gratify fleshly desires and to set a godly example through love and truth.
The document discusses the need for restoring fallen human nature through relationships with others. It explains that an individual can only establish an internal foundation of substance by overcoming their own Cain-like nature, and that this must then be substantiated through relationships with other people. True love for others can only emerge after this internal victory. The document suggests tribal messiahship as the way for blessed families to restore their communities and nations by teaching God's word and living for the sake of others.
The document discusses the importance of distinguishing true believers from false believers. It provides several criteria for evaluating whether someone is genuinely saved or merely thinks they are based on a past experience or moral lifestyle. Specifically, it argues that a past conversion event, living a moral life, or having knowledge of Christian teachings alone do not prove salvation. True salvation is only evidenced by a transformed heart and life oriented around worshipping God and finding confidence in Christ rather than oneself.
This chapter introduces the concept of "history makers" - individuals who defy expectations and statistics to achieve great things. The author believes we are called to be history makers by developing a supernatural lifestyle of signs, wonders, and miracles. Such a lifestyle will transform our cities and release revival through demonstrating God's power. We cannot settle for complacent religion but must receive our inheritance as "sons of the prophets" to see darkness destroyed and cities restored.
The document discusses the qualifications and requirements for ordination according to Christ Central church. It notes that Christ Central only ordains community missionaries, not other roles like pastors or deacons. The biblical definition of ordination is to appoint or set apart for a high purpose. Key qualifications mentioned include being blameless, having self-control, upholding sound doctrine, and refuting false teachings. The document emphasizes that ordination is about recognizing God's calling rather than bestowing status.
This document summarizes research on factors that predict positive spiritual outcomes in children. Studies found that the most important predictor is "family religiousness", including regular family prayer, Bible study, and serving others together. Additional factors included lifetime church involvement, connections with faith leaders, and daily conversation with parents. Parents of "spiritual champions" prioritized character development, clear rules, media limits, and intentionally fostering their child's faith through actions like daily devotions and modeling faith. Across studies, meaningful family faith practices were highly correlated with positive spiritual outcomes in children.
The document summarizes the Buddy System being implemented at the author's organization to foster mentoring relationships between older (Y4) and younger (Y1) members. The key aspects are:
1) Y4 members will be paired with 1-2 Y1 members and expected to meet monthly for activities and weekly for check-ins to provide accountability, commitment of time, and motivation for the Y1 members.
2) Choosing buddies involves prayer and looking for members who are faithful, available, industrious, teachable, and have a heart for God.
3) Warnings are given to keep the focus on growing closer to Christ, clearly define the relationship, and take responsibility
The document discusses the importance of spending time daily reading and studying the Bible individually, focusing on specific words or passages that God reveals to you, and reflecting on how to apply them to your life. It also warns about the dangers of becoming too dependent on church programs rather than developing personal spiritual disciplines. Willow Creek Church realized they had over-emphasized programs and not taught people enough about self-feeding through regular Bible reading and prayer in their own lives.

This document provides a summary of a message about Jesus's genealogy. It discusses both men and women in Jesus's family tree, noting they all struggled with sin yet were part of God's plan of salvation. The overarching message is that no matter one's background or family's sins, there is a place for them in God's family through faith in Jesus. Pride in one's own righteousness is a sin preventing acceptance of God's grace.
1) Paul acknowledges that he has not yet reached perfection in his spiritual growth, but is continually pressing on toward the goal.
2) He focuses on forgetting past failures and straining toward what is ahead, pressing on toward the prize of living in accordance with God's calling.
3) Spiritual growth is a lifelong pursuit of striving to become more holy and Christlike, rather than a final achievement reached in this life. Believers should continuously press on toward maturity through determined effort.

The millennial student the need for a christian worldviewPantegoChristian
Millennials are seeking meaning and purpose beyond what society offers. They embrace moral relativism and are overwhelmed by stress. While highly connected online, many feel lonely. A Christian worldview providing absolute truth and community is just what they need. However, few millennials possess a biblical worldview. Christian schools aiming to develop wise, courageous leaders grounded in Scripture can help fill this need and reverse declining spiritual activity among youth.
This document discusses the importance of community for spiritual growth and recovery from addiction. It makes the following key points:
1) The Bible shows that God intends for people to live in community, as seen in the examples of God living with others, Jesus and his disciples, and the early church.
2) Community helps guard against isolation and is important for life change and overcoming sin. However, the ultimate goal of community is to help people grow closer to Christ.
3) The document provides examples of questions for self-reflection about spiritual growth both individually and within a community context to help support recovery and holding each other accountable.
Young adults gathered for a retreat focused on discerning their charisms and becoming who God created them to be. The retreat included an inventory to identify potential charisms, followed by discussions differentiating charisms from talents and the process of discernment. Attendees were encouraged to test any potential charisms and have ongoing conversations with others to further discern if they possessed a charism and how to develop and use it for the benefit of others.

taittreya upanishad - tradition of yoga and Upanishads, this concept of panch...Karuna Yoga Vidya Peetham
In his search towards reality or the unchanging fundamental unit of this universe, a scientist started with the external gross world of solid matter which is simple and easy to see, divide, and do experiments with.
This search led him through steps of understanding of this entire world of matter starting from elements, molecules, atoms, protons, neutrons and electrons;
He further understood that it is all packets of energy.
The atoms conglomerate together to form various chemicals; our body is therefore a permutation and combination of various chemicals. (Packets of energy in various configurations) When they join together they form molecules, cells, tissues organs, etc.
These follow certain well defined laws of nature and are controlled by nervous (electrical) and chemical (hormones) mechanisms to bring about movement and action in each and every cell.
Thus annamaya kosha is the physical frame which the grossest of the five Koshas.

Muladhara is the root centre of physical experience, located at the base of the spine, the sacral plexus. The square represents the earth itself, the four dimensions and the four directions. Four allows for completion, and earth embodies the elements and conditions for human completion on all levels.
Muladhara Chakra is the meeting place of the three main nadis: Ida, Pingala and Sushumna. The downward-pointing triangle indicates the downward movement of energy and the three main nadis.
The seed mantra is Lam, the yellow square represents the earth element. The Muladhara chakra governs the vital breath Apana. An inverted triangle in the centre of the square encloses the unmanifest Kundalini, represented as a snake wrapped in three and a half coils around the svayambhu (self born) linga. Because her mouth faces downward, the flow of energy is downward.
The opening at the entrance of the sushumna is called brahma-dvara, the door of Brahma, which is closed by the coils of the sleeping Kundalini. As soon as one begins working with Muladhara chakra, this dormant energy awakens, raises its head and flows freely into the channel of Sushumna, the central nerve canal that runs along the spine. These two aspects of the kundalini: sleeping and waking, are identified as her “poison” and her “nectar.” The kundalini is poison when she remains asleep in the lower abdomen; she is nectar when she rises up through Sushumna, the medial channel, to reunite with Siva, the Absolute, in the yogin’s cranial vault.
In the pericarp is found the presiding deity Brahma, the lord of creation. His skin is the color of wheat, he wears a yellow dhoti and a green scarf. Brahma is four-faced, four-armed, holding in his upper left hand a lotus flower, the symbol of purity.
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.
The Revelation Chapter 7 Working Copy.docxFred Gosnell
John witnesses the sealing of God's 144,000 witnesses, and he hears the crying out or shouting of an unnumbered multitude of those who have been saved during the great tribulation.
This is an intermission scene before opening the seventh seal. We have seen six seals opened revealing of the events that would shortly occur. The first 4 reveal what was to occur in the great tribulation during the destruction of Jerusalem by the Romans in AD70.
The fifth seal reveals the question from those slain as to when the Lord would avenge their death. The sixth seal reveals the answer to them from the One on the throne and of the Lamb which would be the punishment of their persecutors and accomplices. John sees four messengers/angels holding back the four winds of the earth & keeping them from blowing on the earth, the sea or any tree. In this figurative language, these are not heavenly messengers/angels. These represent those who are trying to restrain the word of God everywhere. Their efforts are restrained by the messenger in verse 2, preventing them from holding back the 4 winds, the spread of the gospel of Christ by His messengers/angels. These 4 winds stand on the four corners of the earth, Rome’s worldwide influence to stop its spread. But the gospel will be preached in all the earth. See the study for the Bible passages that support this. John hears the commands given relating to the sealing of the servants of God and the figurative number representing them. John sees a great multitude standing before the throne of all nations and kindreds and people and tongues who are clothed with white robes. All the messengers/angels stood around the throne and the elders and the four beasts fell before the throne and worshipped God. One of the elders asks John what those were that were wearing white robes. John said he knew and the elder identifies them. The chapter ends with his explanation.
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...OmarBarrezueta1
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).
God calls us to a journey of worshiping Him. In this journey you will encounter different obstacles and derailments that will want to sway you from worshiping God. You got to be intentional in breaking the barriers staged on your way of worship in order to offer God acceptable worship.

the Holy Bible really mean to be ‘Equally Yoked’
and please give a true life example.
2. Why does ‘Equally Yoked’ mean to have a special

Editor's Notes
The Bible and science are in unison with each other. You can believe it. The holy scriptures and social science together work in harmony with each other. God’s Word and biology, psychology, sociology. All work together. The Bible provides us the injunctions by which to live. Science, gives us principles by which to better understand complex processes by which life is created, sustained, and progresses. …by the Creator.
God made man and woman. Both animated with life. …just a little differently. Males and females were created in the image of God.
God’s creations are perfect. God creates both man and woman as ‘perfect’ … a perfect creation as ‘one’.
Your Heavenly Father has created a role for you to live in this world. It may be a son or daughter. It may be a parent or grandparent or even a ‘Great-grandparent.’
The Biblical injunction ‘be ye not’ unequallyoked together…is for man and woman’s own good. …for what is right.. …for the best outcome.

Both walk in integrity. Both are described by their religious peers as being righteous. A successful marriage requires falling in love many times, always with the same person. Mignon McLaughlin When marrying, ask yourself this question: Do you believe that you will be able to converse well with this person into your old age? Everything else in marriage is transitory. Friedrich Nietzsche

The World views you as a physical entity. The World sees you as a physical body. So does your mate. It’s part of the facts of life. You are a biological creature. God made you a biopsychosociocultural human being and a lot more. You are human – man or woman – amongst the only spiritual beings on earth.
Equallyoked is social PROgression. It’s all in how our ‘perfect’ God sees it. It just may very well be that Unequally yoked is social degression, digression. …God grants true equality in creating a couple-a match made in heaven. ..to ‘couple-up’ together. An ideal wife is any woman who has an ideal husband. Booth Tarkington
What’s the chances that this couple will stay together for life? What’s the odds that this couple will end up in divorce court? Don't marry the person you think you can live with; marry only the individual you think you can't live without. James Dobson

By our Heavenly Father and only because of God, only because of God-we're like other couples.
