This document discusses the importance of the church community for Christians. It makes three key points: 1) Christians are called to come to Jesus as the cornerstone and be built up together as living stones in a spiritual house. 2) To become Christ-like means relating to one another in love, as God is a community of love between the Father, Son and Holy Spirit. Christians are transformed within the church community. 3) God establishes order in the church through leaders, and every Christian has gifts to serve the body of Christ through utilizing their talents and finding their place within the church.

13 one church - one body jan. 2015
The document discusses what the New Testament teaches about the church. It makes three main points:
1. God's church is universal, consisting of all believers in Jesus Christ throughout the world and throughout time. The church is not an organization but refers to people - all those who have been "called out" by God through faith in Jesus.
2. The church can also be thought of locally as all the believers within a certain geographical area, such as a city. However, it is not a denomination or religious institution but simply all Christians within that location.
3. There should be no divisions or separations between Christians. While believers can fellowship in different groups, the New Testament teaches unity among all those
Lesson #8 church mystical body of christ
The document discusses how the Church is the Mystical Body of Christ, with Christ as the head and the Holy Spirit as the soul. It explains that through baptism, believers become part of Christ's spiritual body and are united with one another. Each member has different gifts from the Holy Spirit to contribute for the common good of building up the Church as Christ's presence in the world.
2. Scriptural Images
The document discusses scriptural images of the church including the kingdom of God, the people of God, the body of Christ, and the temple of the Holy Spirit. It notes that Jesus established the church by preaching about the coming kingdom of God. The church serves as the leaven, sowing the seed and casting the net to represent the coming kingdom. The people of God are called by God to be a chosen people who believe in Christ. As the body of Christ, the church has unity in diversity through different spiritual gifts from the one Spirit. The temple of the Holy Spirit dwells in Christians.

It describes elders/pastors/overseers as those who lead by living godly lives, teaching, guiding, disciplining, being hospitable, and shepherding the flock. Deacons are described as having administrative and financial responsibilities to assist elders in serving the church. Both roles require individuals of high moral character.
HOFCC Distinctives (update)
This document outlines the doctrine, devotion, and mission of the Household of Faith Community Church (HOFCC). It describes HOFCC as:
1) Reformed in doctrine, embracing Calvinist theology and the "5 Solas" of the Protestant Reformation.
2) Charismatic in ministry, believing the spiritual gifts continue today and emphasizing worship in both spirit and truth.

4) Evangelical in mission, making the Great Commission a top priority through aggressive church planting and local/foreign missions support.
Ecclesiology Part 1 - The Study of the Church
This document discusses the definition and usage of the term "ecclesiology", which refers to the study of the church. It begins by examining the Greek origins of the word and then explores different understandings of what constitutes a "church" - whether it refers to a building, institution, or universal body of believers. The document analyzes how the word "church" is used in the New Testament, typically referring to local gatherings of believers rather than a universal entity. It traces how English translations have evolved from using terms like "congregation" to the modern "church". Finally, it outlines how the church is described as a spiritual organism or body in the Ephesians epistle.
Four marks of the church
The document discusses the four marks of the Catholic Church: one, holy, catholic, and apostolic. It explains each mark in detail. The Church is one because it has one founder and source in Christ and the Trinity. It is holy because Christ sanctified it and calls all people to holiness through love. It is catholic or universal because it embraces all people and has a mission to spread the gospel to all nations. It is apostolic because it was founded by Christ and the apostles and their teachings have been passed down through the bishops. The four marks distinguish the Catholic Church from other religions and also serve as challenges for it to continuously become more fully united, holy, universal, and connected to
Mistical body of christ
1. The document discusses the Mystical Body of Christ, which refers to God's family or the Church.

Everything written in the New Testament about these different ministries working together to build up the Church will always apply as long as the Church is on earth.
Elders and Deacons Part 2
This document discusses the roles and responsibilities of priests, shepherds, elders, and pastors in the New Testament. It states that all believers are priests and Jesus is the chief shepherd. As shepherds, elders and pastors are responsible for leading, caring for, feeding, protecting, and teaching the flock. Elders and pastors are interchangeable terms that refer to men appointed by God to exercise spiritual oversight of the local church through humbly and lovingly shepherding God's people. The responsibilities of elders include determining church polity, overseeing, ordaining others, ruling, teaching, preaching, exhorting, and refuting. Next week's discussion will cover pastor-teachers and de
The Spiritual Gift Of Apostleship
The document discusses the spiritual gift of apostleship. It provides biblical references that describe the apostles' roles and establishes criteria for identifying apostleship, such as establishing new ministries/churches and overseeing other groups. However, it notes some issues with directly applying the original apostles' experiences today. Instead, it offers a modernized list of traits associated with apostleship, such as being culturally sensitive when ministering across communities/countries and demonstrating vision for the church's mission. Readers are asked to reflect on examples from their own lives that align with these traits rather than immediately deciding if this is their spiritual gift. The document closes with a prayer.

Theo2 [ Church As A Sacrament And A Mystery]
Jesus is the Son of God sent to bring salvation to humanity. While fully human, he lived a sinless life and preached about the Kingdom of God.

Uniqueness of the Catholic Church (8 Nov 2015) (Edwin Lim)
The Catholic Church is unique in its unity, holiness, and universality. It was founded by Christ and is guided by the Holy Spirit. Over its 2000 year history, the Church has survived persecution and grown to over 1 billion members worldwide. It is both divine and human, visible in its community but also spiritual in the salvation it offers. The Church's authority comes from Christ and it faithfully hands down the deposit of faith through Scripture and Tradition.

3) Membership in the Church is necessary for salvation, though those who are unaware of the Church through no fault of their own can be saved if they love God and try to do his will. Outside the Church there is no salvation.
Jesus christ the primordial sacrament
The document discusses Jesus Christ as the primordial and original sacrament. It states that he is the expression of God's love for humanity and the source and goal of all sacramental activities. It also describes how the sacraments arise from Christ's saving ministry and form people in his likeness through the paschal mystery. The church is presented as Christ's fundamental sacrament, as it has a relationship to Christ as the sole source of salvation and is moved by the Holy Spirit to realize God's plan of salvation through Christ.

1) Membership in a local church is implied in Scripture as people are called to gather together, be baptized as a declaration of faith, and submit to church leadership and discipline.
2) The local church is meant to help believers grow in faith and become like Christ by equipping members for service, building up the body of Christ, and pursuing unity in the faith.
3) Christ gave the church servants of the word like pastors and teachers to help members mature and know Christ more fully in order to display his love to both other members and the

The What and Why of Church!
God tells us in the Bible to be part of a church community. The book of Hebrews urges Christians to not neglect meeting together but to encourage and warn one another, especially as Jesus' return draws near. There are also seven practical reasons to be part of a church, such as having opportunities to love and serve others, participate in baptism and communion, and use spiritual gifts to strengthen the community. Ultimately, Christians are called to live in loving community as the body of Christ rather than alone.

It provides definitions of what constitutes a church and gives both biblical and practical reasons for being part of one. The key reasons are that God commands it in the Bible, churches provide community and opportunities for encouragement and spiritual growth, and Jesus loves and sacrificed for the church.
Being the church
The document outlines what it means to truly be the church based on biblical principles. It discusses that the church should not be seen merely as a business or building, but as the body of Christ united to serve God and others. It emphasizes that the church should bring people together in love rather than divide them, and that each believer has a role to play in strengthening the community through their spiritual gifts. The overall message is that the church succeeds when individual Christians come together to support one another, serve the world, and glorify God through their unity and actions.

Loving people - Pastor Peter Loo - 31 March 2020
Jesus commands his disciples to love one another as he has loved them, with an unconditional love poured into their hearts by the Holy Spirit. This agape love, shed abroad through the Spirit, calls Christians to serve others unselfishly for their benefit. Loving others in this way reflects Christians' love for God, empowers their witness, and means extending this love even to those who have not believed.
Enjoying God loving people - Pastor Peter Loo
The document discusses ways to enjoy God through salvation in Jesus, his gifts, relationships with others, and a personal relationship with him. It encourages taking delight in the Lord and finding refuge in him, noting that angels enjoy worshipping God and happiness comes from glorifying him. When people do not serve God with joy, they will suffer serving enemies lacking provisions. The overall message is that enjoying God can be achieved through accepting his salvation, appreciating his blessings, time with others, and a close bond with him.
When two commanders meet
The document summarizes a sermon series about two commanders meeting based on Joshua 5:13-15. It describes Joshua encountering a man with a drawn sword who identifies himself as the commander of the army of the Lord. Joshua falls down and worships him. The commander instructs Joshua to take off his sandals, showing the holiness of God and importance of having fear of God. The sermon series will discuss the confrontation with the supernatural in the natural, taking the wrong question, and knowing that the battle belongs to the Lord.
Taking Stock and Taking Aim - Pastor Peter Loo - Sunday 5th Jan 2020
This document discusses attitudes of the heart based on a passage from Philippians 3:12-14. It emphasizes three key points: 1) Not being complacent but instead pressing on eagerly to know Christ more intimately. 2) Aiming to know Christ in a way that transforms the heart and renews the mind. 3) Forgetting past failures or successes and pressing on toward the upward call of God in Christ for the future.
The Beginning of Christmas - Pastor Peter Loo - Sunday 8th December 2019
The document summarizes passages from the book of Luke in the Bible describing interactions between the angel Gabriel and Mary. It discusses:
1. Gabriel appearing to Mary and telling her she will conceive and give birth to a son named Jesus, who will be called the Son of God.
2. Mary responding with confusion given that she is a virgin, and Gabriel explaining that the Holy Spirit will cause her conception.
3. Mary praising God upon learning she will be the mother of Jesus, saying her soul magnifies the Lord and she rejoices in God as her savior.
Faith that takes the roof off--Pastor Bruce Atkinson-24/11/2019
The document discusses faith in Jesus Christ and how it is not through works or following the law that one is justified, but rather through faith in Jesus Christ. It references a passage from Acts where disciples lowered Paul in a basket through an opening in a wall to escape danger. It also references passages from Galatians discussing how one lives by faith in the Son of God and is crucified with Christ, but Christ lives in them.
Heroes of faith: gideon-Pastor Bruce Atkinson-06-10-2019
This document contains the text of a sermon given in September 2019 at Emmanuel Church. The sermon discusses how God chooses the weak and foolish things of the world to shame the wise and strong, according to 1 Corinthians 1:25-31. It provides the biblical story of Gideon as an example, noting how Gideon started with a large army that God reduced in size so Israel would not boast in their own strength. When Gideon's army of 10,000 faced the Midianites, Gideon was encouraged by a man's dream that foretold of Gideon's victory, demonstrating that God would give the enemy into their hands.
Heroes of faith: Rahab - Pastor Bruce Atkinson
The document discusses the story of Rahab from the Bible. It references several passages that describe how Rahab, a harlot in Jericho, protected Israelite spies by hiding them from soldiers and sending them away safely. Her act of faith was considered righteous, and she was included in Jesus's genealogy. The document emphasizes that faith without works is dead, and that one must have faith to please God, believing that he rewards those who seek him.
From fear to faith - Apostle Naomi Dowdy - Sunday 30th June 2019
This document discusses moving from fear to faith through examples from the Bible. It describes how Moses had to overcome his fear to confront Pharaoh. The two widows in the Bible represented those in debt or with nothing left, but God provided miracles when they gave what little they had. Joseph faced difficulties but kept his faith alive, turning trials into triumphs. The key messages are that God expects us to put him before our fears and logic, and that having faith in God and what little we offer can produce miracles.
From Faith to Fear-Sunday-16th June 2019- Pastor Jing Li Quah and Vince Bayeto
From Faith to Fear-Sunday-16th June 2019- Pastor Jing Li Quah and Vince BayetoEmmanuel Evangelical Church
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.The High Priestly Prayer of Jesus Part 2- Pastor Peter Loo
Jesus prays for his disciples and all future believers. He prays that they will be united in their faith and relationship with God through Christ, growing together in truth and holiness. Jesus sends his followers into the world to witness to others so that through their unity and oneness in Christ, the world may believe that the Father sent Jesus.
Members of one another - Pastor Peter Loo - Sunday 17th March 2019
This passage discusses how the body of Christ functions similarly to the human body, with many members working together as one body. Though Christians have different roles and functions, we were all baptized by one Spirit into one body. Just as a foot or ear is still part of the body even if it is not a hand or eye, each Christian plays an important role in the body of Christ.
God pleasing faith - Pastor Chua Wee Hian - 27th January 2019
This document describes the Christian life of faith through examples from the Bible. It discusses that faith acknowledges God's power, is demonstrated through people like Abel, Enoch, and Noah obeying God, and through Abraham responding to God's promises. Faith applies to saying "Yes!" to God and having faith in Him as our living Almighty God. The conclusion is that grace is God accepting us, and faith is our accepting God's acceptance of us as His beloved children through receiving His love.
The Upward Call - Pastor Peter Loo 6th Jan 2019
This document summarizes Paul's message in Philippians 3:7-17 about pressing towards the goal of knowing Christ. It says to be prepared to count all gains as losses to achieve the ultimate gain of knowing Christ. It also says to see sufferings as part of God's plan and to forget the past and strain towards what is ahead. The ultimate goal, or "upward call", is to gain Christ by being satisfied in him and transformed to be like him. Mature believers should think this way, and if anyone thinks otherwise, God will reveal the truth to them.
Dealing with Busyness - Richard Hindley - Sunday 18th November 2018
This document discusses dealing with busyness and why people feel busy. It defines busyness as having a lot to do and suggests reasons why people feel busy, such as a lack of planning, a search for significance, escapism, and the impact of technology. The document notes that while people have 168 hours per week, many obligations like work and sleep take up much of that time. It concludes by questioning whether readers' priorities are focused on God's kingdom or on being busy with many things, and encourages choosing to seek an audience with God above all other concerns.
Dealing with temptation - Pastor Peter Loo - Sunday 28 October 2018
The document summarizes Jesus' baptism and temptation in the wilderness according to Matthew 3:16-17 and 4:1-11. It discusses the three temptations Jesus faced: 1) Turning stones to bread. Jesus quotes scripture saying man does not live on bread alone. 2) Jumping from the temple. Jesus says not to put God to the test. 3) Receiving all the kingdoms if he worships the devil. Jesus quotes to only worship and serve God. Each temptation is addressed with scripture and lessons about obeying God over cravings, sitting exams set by God, and that there are no shortcuts to spiritual growth.
Caring for creation - Pastor Wee Hian Chua - Sunday 14th October 2018
God created the earth and everything in it, intending it to be productive and sufficient. While humans are to have dominion over the earth, this means being stewards rather than absolute owners. The effects of human sin have marred God's creation through selfishness, greed and exploitation, leading to environmental concerns like population growth, depletion of resources, waste problems, and climate change. Christians can respond through small steps like reducing waste and living more sustainably, while recognizing ultimate hope comes from God making all things new.
Abide in me - Pastor Peter Loo - Sunday 7th October 2018
This document is a sermon about abiding in Christ from John 15:1-8. The key points are:
1. Jesus describes himself as the true vine and believers as branches that must remain connected to him to bear fruit.
2. To abide in Christ means obeying his commandments, confessing sins, praying, and recognizing God's works in one's life.
3. The goal of abiding is to bear much fruit and become more like Christ, bringing glory to God. The Father prunes believers to produce more and more fruit over time.
God is our refuge and strength - Richard Hindley - Sunday 16th September 2018
God is our refuge and strength - Richard Hindley - Sunday 16th September 2018Emmanuel Evangelical Church
1. The psalmist declares that God is our refuge, strength, and ever-present help who does not cause his people to fear even during times of trouble.
2. There is a river that brings life and joy to God's people. God dwells within his people and will help them.
3. God brings victory over all enemies and wars by breaking their weapons and powers. He commands all people and nations to acknowledge that he alone is God.
4. God is referred to as the Lord Almighty and God of Jacob, reminding that he keeps his covenant with his people.Finances-weathering the storm -Richard Hindley-5th August 2018
The document discusses how to weather financial storms. It advises building wisely by being content with what you have, storing up treasure in heaven through generosity and seeking God's kingdom, and being a good steward of what God has entrusted. It also questions whether you are ready for storms and have faith to endure them, referencing biblical stories of Jesus calming a storm and overcoming the world's troubles.

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.

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).

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.

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.
