Habits - All About Walking by the Spirit
This document discusses the freedom from sin and condemnation that Christians have through their relationship with Jesus Christ. It emphasizes that we should rely on the Holy Spirit, not our own efforts, and that our priority should be knowing Christ and experiencing his resurrection power. It also cautions that what seems right to us may lead to death, and encourages clothing ourselves with the presence of Jesus instead of indulging evil desires.
Finding joy in empty times seth gatrchell october 14 2018
If there's anything we hate, it’s emptiness. We so long to be fulfilled, to be satisfied. In Philippians 2, Paul tells us Jesus "emptied Himself!" As He walked through the door of emptying Himself, He walked the real and true road to what He called "life, indeed," or "the abundant life."
_MINISTRY_So You Said I Do #5_True Marriage
In our final week of So You Said I Do, we explore what Christian marriage CAN BE. Too often we look at what isn’t happening in life and love rather than be reminded and excited about what’s possible.
Marriage 5: Wife's Role
This document discusses the biblical roles of husbands and wives in marriage. It addresses common negative perceptions of a wife's "submission" and seeks to define it positively. A wife's submission is meant to be an expression of her obedience to Christ, done willingly and thoughtfully. It also examines how the fall disrupted God's original design of male headship and female support, and how Christ's own example of submission can inform how wives live out their role. When both spouses faithfully fulfill their distinct but complementary roles, their marriage can function harmoniously like an elegant dance.
Love 2.
God's love is made visible through Jesus, not just possible. Real love is shown through attention, affection and sacrifice for others, without words. To know how much God loves you, look at what he sacrificed on the cross at Calvary.
Reflecting God's Glory 2 Cor.3.18
The document discusses Paul's use of metaphors in 2 Corinthians to describe Christians, including being part of God's triumphal procession, spreading the fragrance of Christ, being a letter from Christ, and being mirrors that reflect God's glory. It focuses on 2 Corinthians 3:18, explaining that Christians are called to reflect God's glory through their lives and be transformed by the Holy Spirit into Christ's image to better reflect Him.
06 the heart letter
David Clayton taught a class on 2 Corinthians 3:1-11. The document provides an outline of the key points from the passage, including that Paul commends the Corinthians as a letter from Christ written on their hearts by the Spirit of God. It notes Christians have confidence through Christ from God, not themselves. The passage contrasts the old covenant of condemnation and death through Moses with the new covenant of the Spirit that gives life and righteousness. The document instructs students to get a study guide from the back or fill one out online.
Love - Theology of the Body
This document discusses the nature of love from a Catholic perspective. It begins by explaining that God freely created humans to share in his blessed life of love, truth, beauty and joy. Just as people enjoy a good movie and invite others to see it, God wants to invite us to share in his abundant life. It then contrasts love, defined as willing the good of another, with lust, which is a disordered desire for sexual pleasure. Love requires commitment, sacrifice and putting another's needs before one's own. In contrast, lust is selfish and treats others as objects. The document provides advice on discerning between love, infatuation and lust. It stresses that love is demanding but also allows one to find fulfillment through

What happens when i die?
The document discusses what happens when a person dies based on passages from the Bible. It suggests that after death, angels will carry people to either paradise or torment based on their accountability in life. Paradise is described as a place God has prepared where people will have tangible bodies and full retention of life, able to walk, converse, and remember the past. The document warns against deception, saying salvation only comes through Jesus, and discusses the importance of living for Him to attain eternal life.
Reviewing the covenant
Jubilee is a time of release from bondage, rest from labor, and restoration to God's original intentions, but it requires faith that God will forgive sins, heal the land, bless abundantly, and meet all needs. Jubilee is ultimately about drawing near to God, as reflected in the recurring theme of acknowledging God as Lord and the promises of God's personality, passion, and provision through Christ.
Marriage 1: Staying Married != Staying In Love
The document discusses the biblical view of marriage compared to modern cultural views. It summarizes that marriage is God's invention from the beginning, it is meant to be a temporary institution on Earth to display the gospel through representing Christ's love for the church, and its purpose is not just staying in love but keeping one's covenant with their spouse.
Theology of the Body Part 1
The document provides an overview of Pope John Paul II's theology of the body, which explores the meaning of human sexuality and its connection to God. It discusses key topics from the Pope's 129 lectures on the theology of the body between 1979-1984, including the sacramentality of the human body, the original experiences of man and woman in the Garden of Eden, and the effects of original sin. The document poses discussion questions on these topics and their implications for understanding human love, sexuality, and our relationship with God.
This World Has Nothing For Me
This document discusses the lusts of the flesh and the dangers of loving the world. It notes that the world offers physical pleasures, pride, and material possessions that are temporary and oppose God. Loving these things can cause believers to abandon their faith when facing problems or persecution. The lusts of the flesh come from outside sources that appeal to sinful desires within people. Believers are called to set their sights on heaven, kill their sinful earthly desires, and live according to God's commands by relying on Scripture.
Woman - Become More and Truly Beautiful to God
Let your true beauty shine in the world. Woman, become more & truly Beautiful to God! Be gentle and quiet in spirit; Be submissive to God’s authority; and fears God always!
Introduction To Theology Of The Body
Theology of the body is a series of speeches by Pope John Paul II exploring the meaning of human sexuality and God's plan for love. It covers themes like birth control, the value of the body, and our identity as sons and daughters of God. Theology of the body studies God as revealed through the human body, showing how we reveal something of the mystery of God through our bodies and relationships. It provides a positive understanding of God's plan for love, sex, and relationships.
Are You Serious (About Living a Resurrected Life)?
This document discusses living a life focused on heaven rather than earthly concerns. It encourages the reader to think about things in heaven where Christ is sitting at God's right hand, as one has been raised up with Christ. Several bible verses are presented that discuss being resurrected with Christ and one's life being hidden with Christ in God. The document advocates running towards heaven rather than away from earthly worries. It encourages leaving a spiritual legacy through one's life and fragrance even when absent, focusing on an afterlife with Christ rather than temporary earthly matters.
Surrendering To Kindness - Susan Fochler
Susan shares from scripture and her own life about the power of God's kindness to heal and transform us. Sometimes, it's very hard to receive kindness. Audio link: https://blazingfire.podbean.com/e/surrender-to-kindness-susan-fochler/ From a talk given at Blazing Fire Church August 4, 2018.
Prodigal: The Elder Brother
The document discusses the parable of the prodigal son from the book of Luke and examines its meaning. It argues that Jesus redefined sin not just as breaking rules but putting oneself in God's place as savior. It says the older brother in the parable lived with anger, compliance instead of joy, and a sense of his own superiority rather than assurance of his father's love, showing how those who think they are righteous can be just as lost. Finally, it says the gospel calls all people, whether rule-breakers or rule-keepers, to recognize their need for God's grace and forgiveness.
Marrying the woman of your dreams
Christ should be included in all areas of life. This includes making Him the priority over romantic relationships and allowing His teachings to guide all interactions with women, treating them with utmost respect. By focusing on God first and following His principles of love and sacrifice, one can pursue a Godly relationship and marriage in a way that brings glory to Him.
07 keys to family unity
This document discusses keys to maintaining unity in the family: focusing on Jesus, showing love for one another, being humble, submitting to one another, and making a commitment to the family. It emphasizes that keeping Christ at the center brings people together. True love is defined by qualities like patience, kindness, and unselfishness. Humility involves laying aside pride and selfishness. Submission involves mutual respect among family members, with husbands acting like Christ towards wives, parents caring for children, and all serving one another. Lastly, commitment creates stability when all family members prioritize the family unit.
Rick Warren, Purpose Driven Life: Section 33
The document discusses the characteristics of real servants based on passages from the Bible. It describes six characteristics of real servants:
1. They make themselves available to serve at any time and do not choose when it is convenient.
2. They pay attention to the needs of others and look for opportunities to help.
3. They do their best with what they have and should not wait for perfect conditions before serving.
4. They treat every task, no matter how menial, with equal dedication.
5. They are faithful and do not leave tasks unfinished.
6. They maintain a low profile and do not seek attention or praise for their service.
Deckof cards
1) A soldier stays behind on a Sunday to spend time with God using a deck of cards, as Bibles are not allowed.
2) He explains to a sergeant how each card represents an aspect of faith, such as the Ace representing one God, and the numbers and face cards symbolizing biblical figures and concepts.
3) Through counting dots and analyzing the 52 cards and 4 suits, the soldier finds meaning that connects the deck to faith and reminds him of what he's thankful for. The sergeant, moved by the explanation, borrows the deck to use for his own prayers.
Gods Will Saved Thanksgiving
The document discusses the importance of genuine saving faith that is revealed through our actions, not just our words. It contrasts dead faith without good works to dynamic faith characterized by truth and transformation. It encourages giving thanks to God for our salvation past, present and future. It then lists ways Christians can identify themselves, such as being accepted, secure, and significant in Christ. The overall message is that true faith is demonstrated through our lives and we should be thankful for all God has done, is doing, and will do for us.
02 making sense of suffering
1) The document summarizes a Bible study on 2 Corinthians 1:3-11 about making sense of suffering. It discusses how suffering is a universal human experience but the focus should be on God, who comforts and delivers people.
2) It describes the different types of suffering mentioned in the passage like troubles, distress, and pressure. It also outlines how God acts with grace, peace, comfort, and deliverance.
3) The document concludes by suggesting how Christians should respond to suffering with praise, comforting others, patient endurance, firm hope, sharing their story, and prayer.
What Is Agape Love
Agape love is a self-sacrificial love that comes from God. It is not based on feelings but is rather a determined act of will to put others' welfare above one's own. Agape love is displayed through God sacrificing his son Jesus to save humanity. Christians are commanded to have agape love for one another, which involves sacrificing as needed, as was demonstrated by Jesus laying down his life. This type of love can only come from God and is given to Christians through the Holy Spirit.

We're part of a family

It says that as members of God's family, we have been born again through faith, we share in God's endless love for us, and we are called to have love for one another that knows no end. It also notes that as a family, we share in each other's grief and relief, and will one day be reunited together in heaven. The overall message is that being part of God's family means being spiritually born again, sharing in God's love for us and having love for others, experiencing life's ups and downs together, and looking forward to an eternal reunion in heaven.
Rick Warren, Purpose Driven Life: Section 34
This document discusses what it means to think like a servant. It outlines several key points, including that servants think more about others than themselves, see themselves as stewards rather than owners, are not concerned with money or what others are doing, base their identity in serving Christ, and see their ministry as an opportunity rather than an obligation. The overall message is that to truly be a servant requires changing one's mental approach to put others first and serve with humility, generosity, and joy.
Apostle screed
The document provides an overview of the Apostles' Creed, a statement of core Christian beliefs that dates back to the first century AD. It explains that the Creed summarizes divinely revealed truths according to Catholicism and can be divided into 12 articles that affirm beliefs about God, Jesus Christ, the Holy Spirit, the Church, forgiveness of sins, resurrection of the body, and everlasting life. The Creed is one of the four pillars of Catholic faith alongside the Ten Commandments, seven sacraments, and Our Father prayer.

Introduction to theology of the body class 8
Commentary on the Introduction to the Theology of the body by Chris West, Ascension Press, slides presented by Fr. Joseph LoJacono, IVE
Freedom To Love 2009 01 10
The document is a collection of sections from a talk or book about freedom, truth, love, and redemption in the context of Theology of the Body. It includes sections on what freedom and love are, how freedom depends on truth, living redemption through Christ who sets us free, and serving the good with true freedom. Practical points about relationships and sexuality are mentioned. Quotes from scripture and Church documents are provided throughout to illustrate the topics.
Totb In Marriage Men
The document outlines Satan's deceptions that prevent man from finding himself through sincere self-gift, including lust, masturbation, divorce, and others. It then presents the path to holiness, with recommendations to choose God, frequent confession and Mass, pray, study the theology of the body, and control one's environment and eyes. Finally, it lists recommended resources on the theology of the body from authors like Christopher West, Pope John Paul II, and Bishop Fulton Sheen that can help men live according to the theology of the body.
Living The Theology Of The Body As A Woman
The document discusses living authentically as a woman according to Catholic teachings. It addresses the importance of modesty of dress, eyes, speech, actions and emotion. It defines authentic femininity as involving emotional custody, proper ordering of emotions and feelings, and receptivity. It emphasizes that love must involve sacrifice and seeing the intrinsic value of the other person. Living authentically as a woman involves following Our Lady's virtues and avoiding emotional impurity. It concludes by asking Our Lady to help women live according to these teachings.
Freedom To Love 2008 11 08
The document discusses John Paul II's theology of the body and its application to modern life. It makes three key points:
1. The human body is uniquely capable of revealing spiritual and divine mysteries through physical signs.
2. God revealed himself through becoming human in Jesus Christ. The body is thus central to Christian theology.
3. Sacraments like baptism involve physical acts because it is through our bodies that we encounter God. The separation of body and soul renders the incarnation meaningless.
Freedom To Love 2009 02 28
The document is a presentation on the theology of the body given to a young adult group. It discusses topics like sex and meaning, freedom, love, and living a redeemed sexuality. It summarizes key points from the theology of the body like how chastity allows for the integration of will, emotions and attractions. It emphasizes seeing each person as uniquely valuable rather than as an object for one's own pleasure. The presentation aims to help young adults understand and live the Catholic teaching on the theology of the body.
Freedom To Love 2009 01 31
This document is a table of contents and outline for a discussion on the theology of the body and how it applies to freedom, love, and living redeemed sexuality. It includes sections on defining freedom and the dependence of freedom on truth, what true love is and balancing freedom and attraction in love, and how Christ redeems sexuality. Throughout it uses quotes from Pope John Paul II's theology of the body teaching to discuss topics like how the body reveals the spiritual, what authentic love is compared to lust, and how love calls us to freedom rather than using others.
Introduction to the theology of the body class 6
Commentary on the Introduction to the Theology of the body by Chris West, Ascension Press, slides presented by Fr. Joseph LoJacono, IVE
Religion Powerpoint for Final
On Wednesdays from 1979 to 1984, Pope John Paul II gave talks called the Theology of the Body about how the human body reveals that people are created in God's image with freedom for loving relationships. He asked how the body reveals the truth about humanity and how Jesus came to reveal this truth through the Incarnation. The talks explored how virtue allows us to find fulfillment and happiness, and how love requires work while its opposite is lust which reduces people to objects.
2009 07 25 Authority
The document discusses the authority of the Catholic Church and the Pope. It makes several key points:
1. It asserts that there is one true Church established by Christ, with St. Peter appointed as the head by Christ.
2. It explains that St. Peter and the Apostles could transfer their authority through the succession of bishops, which is how the Papacy retains authority today as St. Peter's successor.
3. It states that the Pope and Church are infallible when teaching on matters of faith and morals.
4. It concludes that Catholics must obey the teachings of the Church.
Freedom To Love 2009 04 25a
This document provides an overview and table of contents for a discussion on the Theology of the Body and how it applies to living freely in love. The discussion will cover topics like sex and existence, understanding the body as a theology, God's mystery revealed in spousal love, and living redeemed sexuality. It presents short sections from the talks to introduce concepts like the body revealing the invisible God, freedom being found in truth not absence of law, and love maturing through seeing the unrepeatable person and not just qualities. The goal is to help young adults transform their understanding of sexuality and culture through insights from the Theology of the Body.
Unmasking the global abortion agenda
The document discusses the global push for abortion and the ideology behind it. It describes how advocacy organizations have promoted medical abortion by moving it away from clinics and into home use with reduced supervision, citing women's autonomy as the priority even when this led to adverse events and deaths. Their goal is to make abortion a normal part of healthcare worldwide and not under political control.

Pope John Paul II gave a series of talks from 1979-1984 that were compiled into a book called "Theology of the Body" which discusses the human body and sexuality. The theology of the body studies God as revealed through our bodies, and how He created us male and female to image His love. It explores how in marriage we participate in a relationship with Christ the Bridegroom by giving our total self as a sincere and fruitful gift to our spouse.

It addresses fundamental questions about the implications for areas of life like love versus lust. It explores topics like the sacramentality of the body, the original experiences of man and woman before the Fall, and redemption through Christ's sacrifice. The document suggests reading selections from Pope John Paul II and Pope Francis to better understand these concepts.

Sex is a gift of god - steven tracy
This document argues that premarital sex should be avoided based on a biblical interpretation. It claims that God created sex and intended it to be expressed only within marriage. The creation account in Genesis depicts sex and marriage as divine gifts. While God sanctions sex within marriage, the New Testament uses terms like "porneia" to condemn premarital sex as immoral. Overall, the document takes the position that abstaining from premarital sex aligns with God's design and is for one's spiritual well-being.
Marriage and Sexuality Talk for Secondary Students.pptx
This document provides an overview of a presentation on theology of the body given to secondary school students. It discusses key concepts from Genesis regarding God's plan for humanity including our creation in God's image, marriage, and procreation. It also covers the fall of man, human dignity, vocations, sacraments, and chastity. The presentation emphasizes that God created marriage and calls us to holiness according to our state in life, whether married, single, or in religious life. Our vocations on earth ultimately point to union with God in heaven.
Heaven "The Dead Man's Utopia"
The document discusses different perspectives on the concept of heaven. It describes heaven from Christian, Buddhist, Islamic, pantheistic, and atheist viewpoints. The author argues that while heaven cannot be fully defined or understood, the idea fulfills human desires for justice, morality, and an afterlife beyond the finite world. The strongest objections are addressed, including that heaven is escapist or wishful thinking, but the author believes these objections fail because heaven satisfies deep human longings that earth cannot.
Presence of god=joy
This is a study of the presence of God and the result of being in His presence. That result is joy, which means a deep level of happiness and satisfaction with life.
grace and the beatitudes
The document discusses the topics of grace and the Beatitudes. Regarding grace, it defines grace as gifts that bring about supernatural friendship with God, and notes that grace allows humans to share in God's divine life. It discusses how grace begins with baptism and develops through virtues like faith, hope and charity. Mistakes about grace like Pelagianism are also addressed. Regarding the Beatitudes, it defines them as eight states of blessedness taught by Jesus, which bring heaven to earth. Each Beatitude is then explained in more detail, covering topics like poverty of spirit, mourning, and being persecuted for righteousness.
The holy spirit gives life
This document discusses how the Holy Spirit gives spiritual life, as opposed to mere physical existence. It contains multiple sections:
1. It explains that the Holy Spirit quickens believers and allows for a spiritual understanding of religion, as opposed to an external or ceremonial understanding focused on rituals.
2. It discusses how union with Christ is spiritual rather than physical, and how true worship is spiritual rather than just bodily observances.
3. It addresses how the kingdom of God is a spiritual concept, not a worldly organization, and how sacraments are meaningful as spiritual expressions, not just physical rituals.
4. Obedience to Christ is rendered spiritually by the will, not just bodily conformity to
Path ascension and beyond
This Path to Jesus takes us beyond His Resurrection through the Ascension to the Coming of the Holy Spirit on Pentecost, and asks what the Church is now to do with our faith.
Bourgeault28jan2012
This document summarizes a discussion between several individuals about theological interpretations. It touches on topics like original sin, the Trinity, and the relationship between Jesus and God. While some more literal interpretations are questioned, the discussants agree that essential Christian doctrines like Jesus' role in salvation are not being denied. When discussing a Bible passage about the union between Jesus and God, an alternative interpretation is presented focusing on the bond of love rather than ontological union, but the Trinity is not being rejected.
THEO 202 Essay #2
This essay discusses the biblical view of marriage and divorce. It begins by defining marriage as a union between one man and one woman that is intended by God to demonstrate His love for the Church. The essay then examines what the Bible says about marriage, noting it is meant to be a lifelong, exclusive relationship. It also explores biblical grounds for divorce, which are limited to adultery, and says divorce should only be a last resort. The essay argues society has distorted marriage by accepting same-sex marriage and viewing divorce as acceptable for minor issues. It concludes by stating the Bible sees divorce as sinful and breaking God's design for the lifelong union of marriage.
Holy spirit facts
This is a collection of writings that tells us basic facts about the Holy Spirit and his role in history and the life of believers.
ST 104 Personal Doctrinal Statement
The document provides a personal statement on soteriology, or the doctrine of salvation. It discusses key beliefs about salvation including: (1) Salvation is initiated by God and accomplished through the Trinity; (2) Humans are utterly depraved and unable to choose God without divine intervention; (3) Salvation is received solely by grace through faith in Jesus Christ. At regeneration, believers are born again as new creations, justified, and reconciled to God. Water baptism is not necessary for salvation. Eternal salvation will be fully realized when believers experience glorified bodies in God's presence for eternity.

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

Introduction to theology of the body class 5
- 1. Questions to Ponder Have you conceived of heaven as a place of liberation from the “prison” of the body? Where does this serious error come from? What is the initial reaction to Christ’s teaching that there will be no marriage in heaven? Why is marriage not the ultimate fulfillment of love like so many songs and stories seem to indicate? How does marriage point beyond itself to our communion with God in heaven? What does it mean to say that all the sexual confusion in the world today is the human desire for heaven gone berserk?
- 2. Bl. John Paul in TOB focuses on the state of man at different times in the History of Salvation Origin Brokenness after Destiny Original Sin
- 3. In the Beginning it was not so Divorce Rape Lust Homosexuality
- 4. Do we think of the body as trapped in the soul?
- 5. Do we really have a New Age view of the Body?
- 6. Christ said “in heaven there will be no marriage.”Matthew 22What does this mean?
- 7. Marital love can not give us ultimate fulfillment Princess Diana and Prince Charles
- 8. The holiness of marriage will continue in heaven St. Joachim & St. Anne Their relationship continues in heaven
- 9. Marriage as sacrament points beyond itself
- 10. The Resurrection of the body fulfills the meaning of our bodies
- 11. Bl. John Paul II’s argument that the true fulfillment our spousal love will only be realized in heaven Look at point 3g. There is an argument here. (See TOB 68.4) The argument runs thus Our original solitude reveals to us that we are unfulfilled without another person The original unity of man and woman points toward an interpersonal desire for another Therefore we have an interpersonal desire to be fulfilled in another The spousal meaning of the body, the love between man and woman, is not the ultimate fulfillment of our interpersonal desires The Triune love of God is the ultimate form of interpersonal love Therefore, Our participation of the Triune love of God in heaven will be the ultimate fulfillment of our interpersonal longings for another.
- 12. Call of God to participate in His life 1. God is gift 2. The nature of sin is to deny the gift 3. The nature of our redemption is that the gift is fully revealed in the Body of Christ given for us. 4. The nature of faith is to open the human heart to God’s gift. (Quoted from Introduction to the Theology of the Body Video, Chris West, session 5 Ascension Press 2008).
- 13. The Eucharist gives us a foretaste of the resurrection of the body
- 14. What does the Blessed Virgin Mary’s assumption mean for our bodies?
