What is CORE?
CORE is a 9-week fall semester and 12-week spring semester program that meets on Wednesday nights from 6:30-8:00 pm to promote biblical teachings and foundational spiritual growth. The fall semester covers topics like prayer, spiritual gifts, and spiritual warfare. The spring semester addresses the presence of God, foundations of faith, and spiritual maturity. Each session involves a group leader sharing on the weekly reading, small group discussions, and prayer. Participants must commit to the weekly readings and discussions for the success of the program and to receive a certificate of completion.
RESTFUL BEHAVIOR
1. The document discusses how to achieve a state of rest and peace of mind through certain behaviors outlined in Hebrews chapter 4.
2. It says true rest takes place when we achieve peace in our spirit and mind, and that only those who believe in God's word and obey it can enter his place of rest.
3. The behaviors discussed are to receive, believe, and obey God's word, be accountable to God, consider Jesus' sacrifice for our sins, and come to him when burdened to receive his gift of rest.
Lesson 6 - Relating to the Holy Spirit
The document discusses the importance of relating to the Holy Spirit as a person rather than just an influence, as he is God. It outlines several key points about the Holy Spirit, including that he lives in believers as his temple, seals them as God's children, has a plan for their lives and intercedes for them in prayer. The Holy Spirit also baptizes believers into the body of Christ and wants to use them to testify about Jesus and utilize their spiritual gifts.
Lesson 3 - Salvation
This lesson explains some key principles of salvation:
1) God shows us mercy when we are not given what we deserve for our sins, and grace when we are given what we don't deserve, which is salvation through Jesus' sacrifice.
2) The Apostle Paul describes how we were without God before salvation and what God has done to save us through Jesus.
3) God's principle of substitution is that Jesus died as a substitute for our sins, as seen when God covered Adam and Eve with animal skins and during the Passover sacrifice, to save us through His love rather than our own merit.
4) True Christianity teaches that only what Christ has done can make us acceptable to God, not anything we

Regular spiritual exercise through these disciplines nourishes and strengthens one's relationship with God.

With the Word of God, circumstances, finances, physical conditions, and lives can all change, as it corrects one's focus and provides portraits of hope for when change is needed in others. The Word shows how persistence in faith can lead to change, as with the woman with an issue of blood.

Bill Faris guides us into the fundamental concepts and practices of discerning God's plans and making decisions as informed by the teaching of Ignatius Loyola.
Ym class11313
This document discusses what God is teaching the author about having a pure heart. It says God's teachings are often not obvious and are about addressing the sin in one's heart. It emphasizes thinking positively and having the fruits of the spirit. It also contains teachings about marriage, including the importance of absolute surrender to God and communication between spouses.
Prayerthatmovesmountains
This document discusses the secret to effective prayer according to Jesus. It states that Jesus taught that true prayer requires going into a private place alone to commune with God, recognizing His presence there. When people pray, they are entering God's presence, so they must do so with reverence and avoid empty repetitions. The secret is realizing that God is everywhere at all times, not confined to any place. Effective prayer involves consciously acknowledging God's omnipresent nature.
Acf ss can mankind live without god
A look at what the Bible has to say about whether our secular culture can really live without God, and what the Gospel is, and how it meets the needs of mankind.
Just one message
The document discusses the "Just One Message" conveyed by prophets throughout history - that there is only one God worthy of worship. It presents verses from the Bible and Quran affirming God's oneness. The Old Testament declares God is one Lord, as does Jesus in the New Testament. The Quran strongly rejects associating any partners with God. While Christians claim God is three in one, the document argues this contradicts biblical verses saying no one has seen God. It concludes the oneness of God was the essential message of prophets, and believing in other deities provoked God's anger.
Holy Choices - an Introduction to Ignatian Decision-making
This document discusses discerning God's plan for one's life through making choices. It presents five assumptions: 1) God is real and present, 2) God has a plan for each person's uniqueness, 3) God actively guides people, 4) People are capable of being God-guided, and 5) People's decisions impact God's work through them. It encourages examining deepest desires and feelings for clues to God's work, and outlines tools like discernment of consolations and desolations, and the Examen prayer for guidance. The overall message is that through releasing attachments, paying attention to promptings, and choosing among "competing goods," one can discern and follow God's will.
3. What is Foundational for Discipling Someone? Notes (A4)
The document provides guidance on foundational principles for discipling someone. It emphasizes establishing the "big picture" of salvation history with Jesus at the center. When discipling others, the initial focus should be on "being" rather than "doing" - helping them understand their new identity in Christ through the gospel. This establishes the proper motivation from a transformed heart before exhorting good works. Key tools for growth are engaging with the word of God, prayer, and fellowship within the church community.
harvest-of-health gloria copeland
This document provides a summary of key points from Gloria Copeland's book on living in divine health every day. It encourages the reader to not wait until an emergency to start feeding on healing scriptures from God's word. To reap a harvest of health, one must sow the word of God into their heart daily. Speaking the word of God and filling one's mind with scriptures about healing and health will eventually push away sickness and disease. Living in divine health is a process that requires continually taking in God's healing word like medicine.

The article discusses the importance of proper communication between Christians, which requires both speaking and listening. It notes that we cannot truly know what others are thinking without them revealing it. Christians must have an attitude of a listener in order to communicate effectively. The Bible teaches that believers should be swift to hear and slow to speak.

The module is designed to help students explore how to ensure their lives and the lives of others have meaning and purpose as Christians. It includes an introduction, guiding questions, Bible passages for reflection, discussion activities in small groups, and a closing worship service and prayer.

Contrast presentation
The document discusses the importance of maintaining a biblical worldview. It notes that according to a survey, only 9% of Americans have a biblical worldview. It then lists questions used in the survey to determine a biblical worldview, such as whether absolute moral truths exist and if salvation is a gift from God. The document encourages asking yourself these questions and seeking the Bible as the primary source of information. It provides biblical verses about living according to a biblical worldview and not conforming to the patterns of the world. It contrasts a biblical worldview with a naturalism worldview.

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
