The document also discusses how historical prayer movements and the early church were birthed from prayer. It outlines elements of the Tabernacle as praise, thanksgiving, worship, prophetic, and intercession. Finally, it lists the three dimensions of the Tabernacle as priestly, prophetic, and kingly/apostolic.

Chapter 15 of Revelation describes seven angels receiving seven plagues from God to pour out his wrath on the wicked. It also depicts the saved rejoicing before God's throne and praising him. Though God's judgments will be terrible, his love, mercy and justice are what necessitate them for the good of the righteous and to demonstrate to the universe that the wicked cannot be changed. The chapter warns that probation will soon close and God's mercy will end, so readers must overcome sin now through Christ's power to be saved.
The document discusses worship in the Old Testament based on passages from Exodus that describe how God instructed the Israelites to worship in the tabernacle according to exact specifications. It notes that God desired order and obedience in worship and that the tabernacle symbols prefigured spiritual realities revealed in Christ. The document contrasts OT worship with worship in the New Testament, which involves the inner spirit and truth rather than external rituals, with a focus on lives of obedience, mercy, and justice rather than sacrifices alone.
We are working through this issues as a church body. This is an information session talking about membership, its importance and the growth cycle for believers.

The document provides details from Genesis chapters 1 and 2 about the creation of man and woman. It summarizes that in chapter 2, man is created alone from dust and given life by God breathing into him. God puts the man to sleep and creates woman from one of the man's ribs to be his companion and suitable helper. The document discusses how man and woman are equally created in God's image but with different roles and responsibilities within a relationship of interdependence.

Sabbath school lesson 3, a holy and just god(joel)Owusu Eric
The document summarizes key points from the book of Joel. It discusses how national disasters in Judah led to a call for repentance and fasting. God promised to pour out His Spirit, leading to visions and dreams. When people proclaim the Lord's name by holding to His promises and preaching the gospel, it will divide people - those who accept salvation and those who reject it. The world will be judged in the Valley of Decision, but God will protect His faithful people.
The document depicts a diagram of the layout of a sacred space containing multiple rooms and religious artifacts. The innermost room labeled "Ruang Maha Suci" contains the Ark of the Covenant, with surrounding rooms labeled "Ruang Suci" and areas for ablution, offerings, and sacrifices.
There are seven types of baptism mentioned in the Bible:
1) Baptism unto Moses where the Israelites passed through the Red Sea
2) John the Baptist's baptism of repentance
3) Baptism of suffering, referring to Jesus' death on the cross
4) Peter's baptism for the nation of Israel for forgiveness of sins
5) Gentile baptism through faith and receiving the Holy Spirit
6) Baptism of the Holy Spirit which unites all believers into one body
7) Baptism of fire, referring to God's final judgment through fire
However, there is ultimately only one true baptism, which is a spiritual identification with Christ's death and resurrection.
The document provides an overview of key passages in Exodus, including God revealing himself as "I am the LORD" and bringing the Israelites to the promised land. It also outlines the major sections of Exodus and reviews Moses' life. The plagues against Egypt are discussed, as well as the purpose and symbolism of the tabernacle.
The document discusses God's calendar as described in the Bible. It notes that the day begins at sundown, hours are calculated based on daylight, and the week runs from Sunday to Saturday with the Sabbath on Saturday. The months are lunar-based around 29.5 days. Years have 354 days with an extra month added periodically. Important feasts are tied to this calendar, including Passover, Unleavened Bread, Pentecost, Trumpets, Atonement, and Tabernacles. The calendar follows God's plan outlined in creation.
The document discusses the origins and meaning of baptism. It begins by explaining that the word baptism comes from Greek words meaning "to plunge" or "immerse." Baptism was originally a Jewish ritual involving ceremonial washing, and later represented immersion during conversion to Judaism. John the Baptist adopted this ritual to represent cleansing from sin and renewal through faith in Christ. The document explores baptism as a symbol of dying to an old life of sin and rising to a new life in Christ through faith.
There are 7 very important things that happen in the waters of baptism, according to the Bible. Some churches call it "an outward sign of an inward experience", but do they really know just how rich that inward experience is? For believers in Jesus Christ to be baptized in water has been a common practice for thousands of years. Jesus commanded that His disciples baptize believers, and they did!

The document discusses the Israelites settling in Shiloh after conquering the land and setting up the tabernacle there. It talks about the remaining 7 tribes that had yet to receive their inheritance and Joshua urging them to fully possess the land given to them by God. It warns against being lazy or slack in one's spiritual duties and service to God, emphasizing the need for diligence. Photos from a missionary in snowy conditions are also included at the end.
This document discusses the importance of keeping the Sabbath and finding rest in God. It contrasts Chronos time, which is a burden, with Kairos time, which is a gift from God. By receiving each day as a gift from God and resting in Him, we can redeem Chronos into Kairos. The Sabbath helps anchor our days and prevent us from constantly fleeing from our troubles. Examples are given of Jews who kept the Sabbath even in hardship and of William Wilberforce, who was able to focus on abolishing slavery after a day of Sabbath rest.
This document categorizes musical instruments into families and provides examples of instruments within each family. The five main families are brass, woodwind, strings, percussion, and keyboard. Brass instruments produce sound through buzzing lips into a mouthpiece. Woodwinds either blow over an edge or have reeds. String instruments are played by plucking, bowing, or strumming strings. Percussion instruments create sound through striking or shaking. The keyboard family includes instruments like pianos and organs that are played by pressing keys.
The gifts of the Spirit are for mutual encouragement and blessing of others. They are, in short, for the purpose of ministry not self-promotion. God gives good gifts to His children!

Death by complacency: how fear kills brandsmatthewtye08
Rinse and repeat. Play it safe. Copy and paste. Save as. Sound familiar? We’re all creatures of habit – and marketers are no different. Many brands are afraid to break away from what they know and what has worked in past (ahem…we’re talking to you, Microsoft). They rely on traditional tactics to gain market share, customer adoration and positive headlines. But what if there were a way to take calculated marketing risks with absolute confidence, instead of, for example, blindly launching a new logo (Hi AirBNB!)? The (un)expected is far more interesting.
SurveyMonkey VP Brent Chudoba is breaking down today’s most common branding myths. He will reveal unseen global data exposing how consumers really feel about marketers’ bag of tricks, particularly around emotional exploitation (sorry Hallmark, you’re no longer the ringer).
The document provides Bible verses to help with various problems and feelings, organized by topic. It offers promises and guidance for when one feels discouraged, worried, lonely, depressed, etc. The verses offer comfort and reassurance, promising that God will strengthen, help, and be with the reader through all troubles.
Here are my responses to the leadership questionnaire:
4. False. Most employees are not lazy. They want meaningful work and leadership.
5. True. Providing guidance and support without pressure allows subordinates to develop skills and confidence.
7. False. While rewards and punishments can be used, the most effective motivation comes from job satisfaction, personal growth and feeling valued.
8. True. Frequent, open communication builds trust and engagement.
9. False. Subordinates usually prefer a collaborative approach where their input is valued and respected.
10. False. Most workers feel secure and competent in their roles and want leadership that empowers rather than directs.
11. True. Effective
There are several leadership styles that can be adopted in different situations: autocratic, bureaucratic, democratic, and laissez-faire. The autocratic style involves a leader retaining power and authority without staff input, while bureaucratic leadership manages through procedures and rules. Democratic leadership encourages staff participation in decision-making. Laissez-faire provides little direction from the leader and gives staff freedom. The most effective style depends on factors like the manager's background, the staff being managed, and the organization.
The document discusses various theories and styles of leadership. It defines leadership as the ability to influence others towards achieving a common goal. Some key points made are:
1) There are different theories of leadership including trait theory, behavioral theory, contingency theory and situational theory.
2) Common leadership styles discussed are authoritarian, democratic, and laissez-faire.
3) Additional models covered include Fiedler's contingency model, path-goal theory, the managerial grid, and Likert's leadership systems.
4) Factors that influence leadership effectiveness include the leader, followers, communication skills, and adapting to different situations.
The document discusses how David and Jesus overcame betrayal through their faith in God. It provides examples from scripture where David was betrayed by close friends but found strength and comfort in the Lord. It describes how Jesus, though innocent, endured suffering without retaliation, trusting God to judge righteously. The key lessons are to confess sins, cast burdens on God, take encouragement from Him, and commit oneself to His righteous judgment.
The document discusses the benefits of exercise for mental health. Regular physical activity can help reduce anxiety and depression and improve mood and cognitive functioning. Exercise causes chemical changes in the brain that may help boost feelings of calmness, happiness and focus.
Elephants can be domesticated and trained, as seen by circus elephants that are tied to small stakes even when fully grown. This is because when young, elephants are tied to stakes and over time come to believe they cannot break free, even if now much larger and stronger. The document suggests some "pegs" that can prevent spiritual and personal progress, such as thanklessness, yielding to sin, evil thoughts, pride, comparison, and an unforgiving spirit. With God's help, readers are called to overcome these "pesky pegs" that hold them back.

The document discusses Psalm 2 as one of the Messianic Psalms that prophesy about Jesus Christ. It analyzes the four sections of the psalm: 1) The people speak against God and his anointed king, fulfilling at Jesus' crucifixion. 2) The Father speaks, laughing at those in rebellion and establishing his king. 3) The Son speaks of his divine sonship and inheritance over the nations. 4) The Spirit speaks, calling all to submit to the Son and find blessing in him.
This document is a lesson about the fruit of the spirit of goodness from Psalm 107. The psalm describes God's goodness in transforming lives through delivering people from distress. It provides four illustrations of God saving people who cry out to him when hungry, imprisoned, sick, or caught in a storm. Each time, God rescues and comforts them. The lesson discusses how to develop goodness by imitating God's kindness to others in times of need and by giving thanks for his goodness.

The lesson discusses how to develop goodness by imitating God's kindness to others in times of need and by giving thanks for his goodness.
David sought to show kindness to any remaining descendants of Saul to fulfill his promise to Jonathan. He found that Jonathan's son Mephibosheth was alive but lame. David summoned Mephibosheth and assured him that he would show kindness by restoring his lands and allowing him to dine at the king's table as one of the king's sons. Mephibosheth was granted this generosity and provision from the king due to David's loyalty to his promise to Jonathan.
The document discusses the fruit of the spirit of patience. It summarizes a passage from Matthew where Jesus tells Peter to forgive others not just 7 times but 70 times 7. Jesus then shares a parable about a servant who is forgiven a huge debt by his master but refuses to forgive a fellow servant a much smaller debt. The parable teaches that if we do not forgive others, neither will God forgive us. Reflecting on God's great patience and forgiveness can help us develop patience with difficult people.
This document discusses the fruit of the spirit of peace. It begins by examining Isaiah 43:1-7, where God reassures Israel not to fear because He has redeemed them and will protect them. The passage indicates God's special, loving relationship with His people. The document then notes how stressful modern life can be and questions how we can experience God's peaceful spirit. It explains that Isaiah 43 reveals God's love and care for Israel during their exile, giving them security despite their sins. The rest of the document provides discussion questions about developing intimacy with God in order to receive His peace, even during adversity.
1) Two disciples were discussing Jesus' crucifixion while walking to Emmaus, saddened by recent events.
2) Jesus joined them but they did not recognize him. He explained how the Messiah was prophesied to suffer.
3) At evening, the disciples invited Jesus to stay and he revealed himself to them during bread breaking, then vanished. Overcome with joy, they hurried to share the news.
The document is a lesson about the fruit of the spirit, love, based on 1 John 4:6-17. It discusses how God is the source of love and how his love was shown through Jesus. It prompts reflection on how to demonstrate God's love to others, particularly those difficult to love, through specific practical actions.
1) David faces the temptation to kill King Saul when given the opportunity but resists, knowing it would be wrong to harm God's anointed king.
2) David calls out to Abner from a safe distance, questioning why Saul's men did not protect the king, and uses this to persuade Saul of his innocence and good intentions.
3) Saul acknowledges he was wrong to pursue David and promises not to harm him again, recognizing David showed restraint and righteousness by sparing his life when he was vulnerable.
The document discusses the fruit of the spirit of gentleness. It examines Paul's gentle treatment of the Thessalonians in 1 Thessalonians 2:1-12 as a model, noting how Paul was bold in sharing the gospel not to please men but God, did not use flattery or greed, and cared for the Thessalonians like a mother or father caring for children. The document provides discussion questions about applying gentleness and sharing one's life and soul with others as Paul did with the Thessalonians.
1) King Jehoshaphat of Judah prays to God for help when a large enemy army approaches, appealing to God's power and faithfulness.
2) A prophet assures Jehoshaphat that God will deliver them without fighting, and tells them to stand still and see God's salvation.
3) When Judah praises God the next day, God causes the enemy armies to destroy each other, and when Judah finds the dead bodies they gather much spoil for three days, blessing God for the victory.
David faces the temptation to kill King Saul, who is pursuing him to destroy him, when he finds Saul alone and vulnerable. David's companion urges him to take this opportunity, but David refuses because Saul is God's anointed king. When confronted, Saul acknowledges his wrongdoing and promises not to harm David further. David spares Saul's life, trusting in God's authority over judgment and timing.
The document discusses how Jesus is described as altogether lovely in the Song of Solomon. It notes how Jesus had no sin and was faultless, yet willingly became ugly on the cross to make humanity beautiful. The prophet Isaiah foretold how Jesus would have no majesty or beauty due to being disfigured. The document encourages remembering Jesus' sacrifice at Christmas and finding him altogether lovely.
The Israelites were being attacked by poisonous snakes as punishment for complaining against God. God instructed Moses to make a bronze serpent and mount it on a pole. Anyone who was bitten just needed to look at the bronze serpent to be healed. Jesus later referred to this story, saying he must be "lifted up" like the bronze serpent so that all who believe in him will have eternal life. All that is required is to accept Jesus into your heart to receive salvation and everlasting life.
1) The document discusses the fruit of the spirit gentleness from Galatians 5:22. It provides examples of gentleness from Saint Francis de Sales and Leo Rosten.
2) The Bible reading is 1 Thessalonians 2:1-12, which describes how Paul shared the gospel with the Thessalonians not for his own gain but out of genuine care and affection for them, nourishing them gently as a mother or father would.
3) Questions are provided for reflection on how to emulate Paul's example of sharing the gospel and ministering to others with purity of motives, vulnerability, and gentleness balanced with urging people to live worthily of God.
This document calls believers to "Arise and Build" by strengthening their spiritual defenses. It references the broken-down walls of Jerusalem that left God's people vulnerable and in affliction. Believers are encouraged to pray and fast to seek God's help in repairing the breaches, which allow "little foxes" like idolatry, materialism, and habitual sins to spoil their spiritual lives. The goal is for believers to put on the full armor of God so they can withstand attacks and build up the walls of their faith.
This document discusses the proper use of language for Christians. It provides several Bible verses exhorting believers to avoid obscene, foolish, or gossiping speech and instead use their words to build others up and give thanks to God. Christians are encouraged to keep their tongues from evil and their lips from lying, and to let gracious speech come from their mouths rather than filthy or harmful words.

It seems that current missionary work requires spending a lot of money, preparing a lot of materials, and traveling to far away places, so that it feels like missionary work. But what was the result they brought back? It's just a lot of photos of activities, fun eating, drinking and some playing games. And then we have to do the same thing next year, never ending. The church once mentioned that a certain missionary would go to the field where she used to work before the end of his life. It seemed that if she had not gone, no one would be willing to go. The reason why these missionary work is so difficult is that no one obeys God’s words, and the Bible is not the main content during missionary work, because in the eyes of those who do not obey God’s words, the Bible is just words and cannot be connected with life, so Reading out God's words is boring because it doesn't have any life experience, so it cannot be connected with human life. I will give a few examples in the hope that this situation can be changed. A375
