Do you know what the devil knows
The document discusses how the devil tries to get Christians to sin in various ways such as procrastinating, disguising himself as helpful, and getting them to tolerate small sins. It advises that the best way to resist the devil is to look for opportunities to do God's will as described in passages like 2 Corinthians 10:5 and Colossians 3:17. Finally, it notes that salvation from sin is available through Jesus Christ.
Discouraged?
This document discusses staying focused through days of discouragement. It provides biblical passages about being vigilant against the devil and enduring affliction. It defines discouragement as a loss of courage, confidence and enthusiasm. Common causes of discouragement are rejection, failure and hardship. The document advises recognizing that everyone experiences discouragement and intentionally breaking bad reaction patterns. It suggests putting one's mind at night with thankfulness, remembering God's faithfulness, sharing burdens with others, and focusing one's mind on God's promises. Strategies listed to help overcome discouragement include these actions.
Why
The document discusses how God uses difficult circumstances in our lives for specific purposes:
1) God sometimes uses difficulties to humble us and lead us to trust in Him alone.
2) He uses hardships to mold us into His image through building character traits like endurance.
3) God places us in difficult positions so that we can be used for His glory and to help others, as Esther was made queen at a pivotal time to save her people.
4) Through all circumstances, God leads us to ultimate victory through our faith in Christ who grants us complete salvation.
Why Does God Allow Suffering
The document discusses the purposes and types of suffering for Christians. It outlines how suffering completes what remains of Christ's suffering, shares in the death of Jesus, and can encourage and benefit others. Suffering is presented as a privilege that allows partnership with Christ and brings God's comfort, though it should not be due to poor choices. Meditation on suffering's role in glorifying God is encouraged.
Heart attitudes follow spiritual leadership seth g (october 6 2019)
Submitting to God-given authority runs extremely counter-culture in our Western world. The pendulum has swung to an extreme of individualism. The effect is to make workplace environments, teamwork, ministry projects, etc. more difficult because "everyone" has their opinions about how things "ought" to be done. How does God see all of this? What is our role to be?
Conversion of heart
Peter initially calls Jesus "Teacher" but is willing to let Jesus prove himself, despite Peter's own understanding. After a successful fishing trip where Jesus commands Peter to catch many fish, Peter realizes he is a sinful man and repents. Jesus then offers Peter a new grace and converted heart, representing a transformation from the old to the new through receiving Jesus.

Unsaved
"The Unsaved" and the conversation that so many never get to have .
We live in dangerous times. Because of that , the excuses we make for not having the "uncomfortable"conversation simply can not exist anymore. Unsaved people are dying DAILY... and while we can not stop the cause of it , we can share the only truth about the result of it and where you can be , if you choose it.
Yes , Heaven is real , because GOD is real ... So it MATTERS.
It never fails to humor me the lengths that some in our country will go to in order to pin Christians as hateful and bigoted people ,when in fact , we are the complete opposite. This tactic has done wonders for diminishing the desire to share the Gospel of Christ with the Unsaved and lost , due to fear of being accused of such untruths.
No more.
The only truly evil we CAN do , is say nothing of Jesus Christ and him crucified , so that one can continue in their sin ,unbothered.
Yes , it is a free country... But freedom is not the RIGHT to do whatever you wish , but that have the freedom to do that which is RIGHT.
Satan! You have been defeated! (Part-2)
The Lord Jesus walked in absolute mastery and dominion over demonic powers. We are called to do the same. However, as we learn how to do so, there are some practical areas we need to be mindful of. We need to press past the setbacks and casualties and arrive at the place where we can walk as He walked.

001, for all it’s worth slides
The Bible is not an ancient, irrelevant letter. It is a guide for living in our modern world with passion, focus, and purpose. We will gain a greater understanding of why the Bible is of great importance and how we can apply it to our daily life in the most meaningful way.
7 facts about THE SPIRIT OF GOD
The document outlines 7 key facts about the Holy Spirit:
1. The Holy Spirit played a role in creation and gives God's word through inspiration. He performs signs and wonders.
2. The Holy Spirit is referred to as the Spirit of God and Spirit of the Father. His importance is shown by the severity of blasphemy against him. He is omnipresent and omniscient.
3. The Holy Spirit produces good fruits in believers such as love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness and self-control.
The document provides an overview of the power, attributes and roles of the Holy Spirit according to the Bible.
Angelology, the fall of satan
Satan fell from grace by exercising his free will to rebel against God in pride, leading many angels to join him in sinning. While angels were originally created good, Satan and others willingly corrupted themselves. Satan's fall occurred sometime after Genesis 1 when creation was declared good, and before Genesis 3 when he tempted Eve in the form of a serpent. Scripture implies the angels' sin was one of prideful rebellion and overstepping their proper roles. As a result, the fallen angels including Satan were cast from God's presence into eternal condemnation and chains of darkness.
Defeating the demonic
The Bible makes it clear that their is a spiritual battle going on to neutralise the witness of the Christian. The demonic forces are also at work to ensure that people do not come to faith. This sermon looks at how Christian's can overcome the demonic.
The way of temptation
To know the source and purpose of temptation, its diabolical methods and the means of resisting it by staying strong.
Titles of the Devil
The document discusses Satanology, the study of Satan. It provides 10 titles for Satan from the Bible, describing him as the adversary, tempter, father of lies, and ruler of this world who blinds unbelieving man from coming to Christ. It emphasizes that since the Garden of Eden, God and Satan have been locked in a cosmic battle for man's allegiance, and urges readers to put on the whole armor of God according to Ephesians 6:10-17.
When Life Hurts
The document provides encouragement and scriptural references related to relying on God for help, loving others, controlling one's words and emotions, having faith, and helping others. It emphasizes looking to God and Jesus for healing and strength, loving others with fervent love through forgiveness and patience, using one's faith as a shield against difficulties, and reaching out to help others through kind words, deeds, prayers, visits and coming to Jesus.
Can I Be Angry But Not Sin?
Sermon at the Haynes Street church of Christ on July 6, 2014. Topic: "Can I Be Angry But Not Sin?" Preacher: Steven Matthews
Vigilance
The document discusses the importance of vigilance and avoiding spiritual complacency. It warns that Satan lays snares to trap people by preying on their weaknesses. It encourages believers to stay alert, not fall asleep spiritually, and to watch and pray so they do not give in to temptation. Maintaining vigilance through prayer and keeping their focus on Jesus can help believers avoid falling into traps or becoming distracted by earthly possessions.
7 signs of life Sensitivity
The document discusses seven signs of life and defines sensitivity as awareness of others' needs and emotions. It then outlines five ways Christians can refresh others: through their presence by assembling together, acceptance by showing mercy, cheerfulness with a joyful heart and face, persistent focus on serving others, and great courage like Onesiphorus in hunting down Paul despite risks. The key points are that no Christian should suffer alone and all should aim to refresh others, as per Proverbs 11:25 about refreshing others being refreshed.
Trumping Trump
How should we speak honestly as Christians in an age of political correctness? This is short comparison between how Donald Trump speaks and how the Bible instructs us to speak the truth with love.
Deliver Us From Evil
How do you respond to the idea that there are spiritual powers and demons in the universe that are working against God's will?
How are you aware of the spiritual warfare around you? If Satan is a "deceiver" and our Lord calls him "the father of lies" then how have his lies affected your life? What lies have you believed (in the past, or possibly now) about yourself, others and God? These and other questions are addressed in this study.
I fear my demons may return to haunt me
The slides used to accompany the message delivered at the Bromley Unification Community worship service on Sunday 9th February 2014.
February 11 2018 - Sunday service message - LOVE YOUR NEIGHBOR WITH THE 5 LO...
This document discusses the five love languages: quality time, words of affirmation, acts of service, physical touch, and giving gifts. It encourages Christians to learn these love languages so they can better show love to their neighbors. Speaking each other's love languages involves setting aside quality time, offering encouragement through words, helping others in times of need through service, showing appropriate physical touch, and thoughtfully giving gifts on special occasions. Mastering these love languages can help Christians express God's love for one another and bring them closer in their relationships.
Unit viii notes
The document discusses several biblical concepts and themes related to social justice, the church, and discipleship. It covers the four C's and four P's of conversion, the six themes of social justice, marks of a disciple, and lessons from scripture on topics like obedience, sin, and serving others.
Could you not watch one hour
The document discusses lessons from Peter's failure to stay awake and pray on the night of Jesus' trial, as recounted in the gospels. It notes that Peter denied knowing Jesus three times in an attempt to blend in, and his faith faltered after Jesus was taken away. The document encourages being serious and watchful in prayer, having a mind like Christ to avoid traps, and conducting oneself in fear while focusing on the payment made for our souls through faith in God.
Sanctifying sports
This document discusses how Christians can apply biblical principles to their involvement in sports. It encourages dedicating sports to God, working as a team, and with hard work, just as Christians dedicate other areas of life like family and career to God. It also cautions that believers should play sports in a way that reflects Christ's character of mercy, kindness, humility and forgiveness. The document warns against prioritizing sports over responsibilities to the local church like regularly attending worship and Bible studies. It closes by reminding readers that God watches over all areas of life, including how we play sports.
Nahum
The document summarizes the book of Nahum from the Bible, which contains God's judgment of Nineveh. It discusses how God is jealous and avenging, yet slow to anger. It describes how God is powerful and a stronghold for those who trust in Him. It warns that God will bring an overflowing flood to utterly end those who are His enemies, and asks whether people think they can conspire against God with how they are living. It notes the book contains messages both against Nineveh and words of deliverance for Judah.
Be angry, and do not sin
This document discusses different situations where one may feel anger and provides biblical guidance for responding appropriately without sinning. It addresses being angry at someone else, one's children, one's church family, false doctrine, and one's own life. In each case, the document contrasts a sinful motivation, such as violence or destruction, with a righteous motivation, such as reconciliation, training, correction, or teaching, citing relevant bible verses to support handling anger in a wise and constructive way.

In each case, the document contrasts a sinful motivation, such as violence or destruction, with a righteous motivation, such as reconciliation, training, correction, or teaching, citing relevant bible verses to support handling anger in a wise and constructive way.
Learning to forgive yourself2
The document discusses forgiving oneself through confession of sins to God (Psalms 32:5, 1 John 1:9). It emphasizes that guilt should not be ignored, and that prayer and confession of sins to God is the solution, resulting in forgiveness and cleansing from sin. It encourages having confidence in God's faithfulness to forgive through the blood of Jesus Christ, and to press on toward Christ by forgetting past sins and reaching toward spiritual growth.
King Amaziah
This document summarizes the biblical story of King Amaziah from 2 Chronicles 25. It discusses how Amaziah initially obeyed God's commandments but lacked a loyal heart, hiring soldiers against God's counsel and later worshiping other gods after a military victory. While God continued giving Amaziah counsel through a prophet, Amaziah rejected this counsel and God, leading God to abandon Amaziah to his enemies. The document emphasizes the importance of having a loyal heart toward God rather than just outwardly obeying commands.
For we who are in this tent
The document discusses how God has prepared an eternal home for believers in heaven. While on earth, believers are absent from the Lord but aim to please him. Their temporary earthly bodies will be replaced by incorruptible, eternal, spiritual bodies. Though believers experience temporary problems and afflictions now, they are for a moment and working to produce eternal glory. The love of Christ compels believers to no longer live for themselves but for him, as he died and rose for them. Believers are called to walk by faith in eternal things, not sight of temporary things.
Useless to useful
Onesimus was a slave who had run away from his master Philemon. He met Paul while Paul was in prison. Paul encouraged Onesimus to return to Philemon, explaining that he had become a "useful" slave by becoming a Christian. As a Christian, Onesimus was now obligated to obey Philemon completely but sincerely as if obeying Christ. The book of Colossians provides context, stating that Onesimus was now a brother in the faith and part of the church in Philemon's house.
She is my sister
This document discusses Abraham's actions in telling kings that his wife Sarah was his sister rather than his wife. It provides context from Genesis chapters 12 and 20 where this occurred twice. The document then examines whether Abraham's actions constituted a lie, discusses when withholding information may or may not be justified, and concludes that Abraham implied a lie that was pre-planned in order to protect himself rather than telling the full truth. It encourages binding oneself to truth and trusting in God.
Power of prophecy
The document summarizes prophecies from the book of Daniel chapters 8 and 11. It describes Daniel's visions of a ram representing Media and Persia being defeated by a goat representing Greece. It discusses how the goat's horn was broken into four pieces representing the division of Alexander the Great's empire among four generals. The document analyzes how these prophecies from over 200 years prior were fulfilled, demonstrating the power of biblical prophecy.
Psalm 119
This document discusses several passages from the book of Acts in the Bible where Paul spoke before various religious and political leaders to defend himself against accusations. It also discusses multiple passages from Psalm 119 where the writer expresses how they will not be ashamed to speak about God's teachings before kings and that God's word gives them comfort and strength in difficult times when facing persecution.
3 passages of god's justice
This document summarizes several Bible passages about God's justice. It discusses how God will repay with tribulation those who trouble believers and take vengeance on those who do not know or obey God. It also describes how God did not spare sinning angels, the ancient world, or Sodom and Gomorrah, but delivered righteous people like Noah and Lot. The document encourages believers to be diligent as they wait for Christ's return and to persevere in following the Gospel through which God called them.
For if there should come into your assembly
This document provides guidance on greeting visitors based on a passage from the book of James in the Bible. It emphasizes showing no partiality by wealth, ethnicity, or sin, and remembering that we were all once strangers. Visitors will quickly notice any hypocrisy, so members should demonstrate that their faith has works by being doers of the word of God. The document encourages leaving one's comfort zone to greet visitors, and quotes passages about welcoming strangers as yourself. It offers suggestions for making visitors feel welcomed, such as where to sit them, sharing information, developing friendships, and introducing them to others.
His rest
The document discusses the rest that God promised for His people. It notes that the Israelites who wandered in the wilderness for 40 years did not enter the promised rest due to their disobedience. Christians can diligently enter this rest by following Jesus, who is a better mediator and leader than Moses and has obtained forgiveness of sins through his death. Believers are encouraged to persevere in faith so as not to fall as the Israelites did through disobedience.
7 biblical principles for social media
This document outlines 7 biblical principles for using social media:
1) Do not let social media become an idol that takes time away from God.
2) Be careful of adultery, as social media has contributed to divorces by sharing private matters.
3) Do not flaunt possessions on social media to make others covetous.
4) Ensure your social media profile honors your parents.
5) Post without complaining or arguing.
6) Share words that are helpful rather than hurtful.
7) Choose Jesus as your top friend rather than the influences of the world.
Elijah
This document summarizes three biblical stories involving the prophet Elijah and fire:
1) Elijah challenges the prophets of Baal to a contest on Mount Carmel to prove whose god (Baal or Yahweh) answers with fire. Yahweh consumes the sacrifice with fire while Baal does nothing.
2) After fleeing from Jezebel, Elijah experiences God's power through a wind, earthquake, and fire at Mount Horeb.
3) God sends fire to consume two groups of soldiers sent to arrest Elijah when the new king Ahaziah consults a false god instead of Yahweh for help after an accident.
Obedient children
This document discusses the importance of being obedient children through discussing passages from 1 Peter and 1 John about remaining in what was taught from the beginning and not being deceived. It warns about the dangers of ignorance through examples from the Bible. It also mentions resisting desires that go against God's will and the rewards of entering God's kingdom and using talents within God's law as his children as promised in the Bible.
Isaiah 51
The document discusses listening to God and awakening to his eternal salvation and righteousness. It tells believers to look to Abraham and Sarah as examples of trusting in God alone. It also speaks of God's coming justice to judge people, while his salvation is eternal. Believers are told not to fear what people say but to have strength in God. Jerusalem is told to awake, stop drinking God's fury, and be redeemed without cost.
Walk in the spirit
This document discusses walking in the spirit according to passages in Galatians and Ephesians. It encourages walking in love, as a child of light, and circumspectly as the days are evil. Quotes are provided emphasizing walking worthily of God and by the same rule. Works of the flesh like selfishness prevent inheritance of the kingdom, while the fruit of the spirit like love live through Christ and prevent conceit.
How Precious Are Your Thoughts
This document discusses how God can have different emotions towards humans such as anger, laughter, compassion, grief, love, hate, and joy. God's thoughts towards humans are precious according to Psalm 139:17-18. God is able to be angry, laugh, have compassion, grieve, love, hate, and feel joy towards humans as referenced in various Psalms and the book of Zephaniah.
What do your guest see
This document discusses what kind of example parents are setting for their children and guests through their household. It asks if children have seen a caring family focused on God or a selfish one, and if they have seen parents in prayer or constant anxiety. It prompts considering if children have witnessed hospitality or grumbling, Bible study or empty faith, genuine worship or vain worship, and consistency in serving God or hypocrisy. The overall message is that parents should reflect on what kind of Godly example they are setting for those in their household.

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
