The document discusses what it means to walk by faith based on examples from the Bible. It defines faith as being confident in things hoped for and unseen. Faith comes from hearing the word of God. Abraham is used as an example of having faith through his obedience to God's commands, without knowing where he was going. To walk by faith today means following God without seeing first, trusting Him completely like Abraham. Other examples mentioned are waiting for heaven like Sarah did and Moses choosing to suffer with God's people rather than enjoy sin, looking toward unseen heavenly rewards. The document encourages the reader to begin walking by faith through hearing, believing, repenting, confessing, and being baptized as Jesus saves.

This document discusses the concept of faith from a Christian perspective. It defines faith as the assurance of things hoped for and the proof of things not seen. It emphasizes that faith works in reverse of natural thinking by believing in something before it happens rather than needing to see it first. The document encourages readers to have the faith of God by calling things that do not exist as though they do. It argues that faith is required to please God and be led as mature sons of God. It highlights examples of faith from Abraham and encourages readers to come out of their tents and limited mindsets to look up at a higher revelation through faith.

Because He lives
This document discusses how Jesus's sacrifice allows believers to have full assurance in God. It notes that animal sacrifices under the old law could not truly take away sins, but Jesus's single sacrifice was sufficient. Through faith in Christ, believers no longer have their sins held against them but can boldly approach God. The document encourages Christians to prepare for Jesus's return by assembling together, stirring up love and good works, and obeying the gospel through faith, repentance, confession, baptism and faithfulness.

The document encourages walking with God by agreeing with Him, walking uprightly and worthily in humility and love. It concludes by urging the reader to follow Jesus as the light of the world, not let Satan hinder them, and to hear, believe, repent of sins, confess Jesus, and be baptized into Christ.
The God Kind of Wisdom

It then lists some blockers to wisdom like envy, self-seeking, and earthly desires. The document advocates developing godly qualities like purity, peacefulness, gentleness, mercy, and sincerity. It concludes by stating the godly wisdom involves righteous living guided by self-control according to God's word and the gospel of Christ.
Finding Jesus
The document discusses how to find Jesus. It says that while some say Jesus does not exist, others are interested in finding him. It then provides biblical references showing that people should seek Jesus with diligence and their whole heart. It notes Jesus pre-existed, was prophesied about, and was proven to have come as the leader and savior. The document concludes that Jesus can be found through studying scripture and coming to him, and that his message should be taught to all so they can be saved.

The truth is like a big mac!
The document compares the truth of God to a Big Mac hamburger in three ways:
1) You can only find the truth in the church, just as you can only find a Big Mac at McDonald's.
2) The truth has the right ingredients (no compromises) according to the Bible, just as a Big Mac has the standard ingredients.
3) Some people do not like the truth any more than some do not like Big Macs, but finding and accepting the truth, like eating a Big Mac, satisfies and provides sustenance for life.
THIS WORLD HAS NOTHING FOR ME
This document discusses the major decision of faith and lessons from Moses' example of faith. It summarizes that Moses refused to be called the son of Pharaoh's daughter, chose to suffer affliction with God's people over Egypt's pleasures, and looked to the heavenly reward. By faith, Moses stood for justice, thought God would use him to deliver Israel, forsook Egypt without fearing the king's wrath, and endured invisible to his heavenly Father. The document encourages walking by faith like Moses, knowing this world offers nothing but Jesus does.
New Testament Commands 9
This document lists 177 New Testament commands from the books of Luke and John. Some of the commands include instructions to pray regularly, ask God for daily provision and forgiveness, give to those in need, beware of hypocrisy and covetousness, and remember God's commands to love others. Believers are told not to fear man but to fear God, and to be ready for Christ's return at any time.

David's Many Giants
- The document discusses various lessons that can be learned from the life of King David, including his victory over Goliath as a young shepherd, sparing Saul's life when he had the chance to take revenge, listening to Abigail's wisdom to not kill Nabal in anger, and admitting his sin of adultery with Bathsheba after Nathan confronted him.
- It encourages learning from both David's triumphs and mistakes, recognizing and destroying the "giants" of fear, anger, lust, and revenge in our own lives, and being ready to face threats by putting on God's armor and using his word.

The document outlines three things we should do in our interactions: 1) be quick to listen and get all the facts before making decisions, 2) be slow to speak and think carefully before speaking to avoid harm, and 3) be slow to wrath since anger does not produce righteousness. Following these will help believers develop strong relationships through proper communication and behavior that honors God.

A375 Example Taste the taste of the Lord, the taste of the Lord The taste of...
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
