This document discusses the Christian way of life and what it means to take up Jesus' yoke. It encourages believers to cast their burdens upon the Lord, as he will sustain them. Jesus invites all who are weary and heavy laden to come to him for rest. Taking his yoke means being chosen by Jesus to go and bear fruit that remains through living according to his example of meekness. With a clean heart and renewed spirit, believers can get the most from Christ's easy yoke by finding rest and a renewed outlook on life through him.
Baptism testifies to that which has already happened in believers; we are buried with Christ and raised from the dead in the Power of God's Holy Spirit.
Submit to Jesus' Authority and Live Like HimJeremy Hoover
God established Jesus as the True King and the True Servant in his baptism. Likewise, we covenant with God in our baptisms to submit to Jesus' authority, to live like him as a servant, and to follow him into ministry.
By examining God’s patience in the days of Noah, with man, with Paul, and in the parable of the Unmerciful Servant we find the keys to our patience. We must be patient in teaching, helping and forgiving.
Patience is a virtue that many of us need to work on. What is patience? What can I do to increase my patience? What are some consequences of not being patient? How does God give us patience? Hopefully this lesson will help you answer these questions. Audio: http://w65stchurchofchrist.org/Sermons/Audio_Sermons/2010_04_04_Lord_Give_Me_Patience_Now.mp3
he Scriptures clearly tell us that the time will come when when some Christians in the body of Christ will not endure sound doctrine. All of us ought to separate the precious from the vile, the truth from the error and sound doctrine from fables. We cannot delegate this responsibility to anybody else. To this end we have been freely given the written word of God that by the grace of God through faith in his name we might be lead into all truth through the Holy Spirit.
I hope this series of meditations will help the word of God renew your mind and that you will be ready for the appearing of the Lord Jesus Christ.

Trained servant - Chosen to be TrainedJansen Balao
We are chosen by God (John 15:16) but that choice is also a matter of our own decision. Let us respond to God's call and serve Him, openly and lovingly. Let us bring our bodies in subjection unto the mastery of whatever our hands findeth to do; to do them for the glory of God.
God is good.

The stressors of life, sin, guilt, shame, condemnation, unworthiness, discontentment and things of similar nature cause deep unrest in our souls. Jesus Christ offers rest to those who are tired, a kind of inner rest that cannot be found elsewhere. He taught us how to walk in this rest.

In Jude 17-23 Jude shifts from piling up examples of false teachers from the Old Testament to a series of practical exhortations that flow from apostolic instruction. He preserves for us what may well have been part of the apostolic catechism for the first generation of Christ-followers. In these instructions Jude exhorts the believer to deal with 3 different groups of people: scoffers who are "devoid of the Spirit", believers who have come under the influence of scoffers and believers who are so entrenched in false teaching that they need rescue and pose some real spiritual risk for the rescuer. In all of this Jude emphasizes Jesus' call to rescue straying sheep, leaving the 99 safely behind and pursuing the 1.
