James 2:14 What does it profit, my brethren, if someone says he has faith but does not have works? Can faith save him?
The document discusses biblical faith based on a passage from the book of Mark.
It defines biblical faith as believing in things hoped for but not yet seen, and believing God can do the impossible. It says we should exercise faith by speaking to challenges like mountains, declaring God's desired results in prayer, and forgiving others to remove hindrances. Building faith requires focusing on God's flawless, living, and true word through regular confession and meditation.
Faith is believing in God and His promises based on the evidence, even when things are not seen. This belief in God brings about obedience to Him. True faith is not simply an intellectual belief, as even demons believe, but rather it is a belief that produces good works. Faith requires obedience to God and trusting in His promises for salvation and eternal life, even when facing trials, by keeping one's eyes fixed on Jesus Christ.

It argues that true faith is demonstrated through works, and that we will be judged based on our deeds, not just our beliefs. Over several sections, it makes the case that: 1) Faith without works is dead; 2) Christians cannot separate their faith from their works; 3) Works are involved in our salvation process; and 4) We will be judged according to our deeds, not just our claimed faith. The overall message is that true saving faith in Christianity necessarily involves righteous actions and obedience to God's commands.

All of God's promises are "Yes" and "Amen" and will result in blessing and glory for those who believe.

Faith, Faith and salvation, Faith creation/maintain ,Examine our faithfranktsao4
Faith has always been a very controversial subject. The reason for the controversy is that we did not follow the interpretation of the original text of the Bible. Just like the following section, when we hear the word of God, love, we use what we understand of the world to explain God’s word, love, which brings others
John. 16:13 “However, when He, the Spirit of truth, has come, He will guide you into all truth; for He will not speak on His own authority, but whatever He hears He will speak; and He will tell you things to come. ”

The document provides examples of sins like unforgiveness that can limit one's faith as well as scriptures emphasizing having complete faith in God to receive blessings and answers to prayers. It concludes that one can stop faith from working by putting other things before God through sins like fear or disbelief.
1) The document discusses God's faithfulness even when the world is unfaithful. It explores how Christ's faithfulness justifies believers and gives them confidence and boldness to face life's challenges.

Nov 6 2016 - Sunday Message - Overcoming doubt and unbeliefCatherine Lirio
This document provides 9 ways to develop a strong faith that overcomes doubt and unbelief. They include regularly attending worship, reading Scripture daily, praying for strong faith, declaring God's words of faithfulness, renouncing lies, viewing trials as opportunities to strengthen faith, listening to faith-building messages, avoiding cynical influences, and encouraging others. The conclusion emphasizes that all things are possible with God.
God desires to bless believers with His grace, but their faith will be tested. Faith comes from reading God's word and praying, and it is strengthened as God removes sin and replaces it with His character. Faith is proven through trials and will be rewarded at Jesus' return. Believers must seek God above all else, trust fully in Him, and avoid sin by walking in the Spirit in order to please God and have their faith grow.
Sure prayer involves constant communication with God through Jesus, with faith and without doubts. It requires yielding one's will to God's will and demonstrating faith even in difficult circumstances. Sure prayer believes that what is prayed for according to God's word will come to pass. It involves forgiving others, speaking words that confirm rather than deny faith, and praying in line with God's desires as revealed in scripture.
I will not Shrink Back!I will not Quit!Stanley Tan
The document discusses persevering in faith and not shrinking back despite difficulties. Some key points:
- Believers should not throw away their confidence in God as it will be richly rewarded through persevering and doing God's will.
- Those who have faith will be saved, while those who shrink back will be destroyed. Winners persevere while quitters do not win.
- In the past, believers withstood suffering and persecution with courage; they must continue sticking to God's plan through pressures and hard times.
- Living by faith in God's promises is what keeps believers going toward their destiny, just as Jesus persevered to complete His Father's mandates despite anguish.
Faith requires believing in God and Jesus Christ even without seeing the desired results. It requires changing one's lifestyle to glorify God by aligning words and actions with what the Bible says and no longer being led by sinful thoughts. Unbelief is choosing to deny God or Jesus, causing a separation from God through sin. Faith comes from studying the Bible and spending time with God in prayer each day. The Christian walk involves persevering in faith and following Jesus in every area of life through commitment to and communication with God.

He performed many other signs and miracles beyond what was written in scripture. Jesus gave his disciples and the seventy power to heal sickness and cast out demons, and instructed them to preach about the kingdom of God. The miracles Jesus performed through his ministry bore witness to who he was and the works of God.
In this concluding message we highlight what our covenant provisions, privileges and blessings are and outline important steps to receiving covenant blessings.

The document outlines the training process required to become a disciple of Jesus. It discusses embracing Jesus as both teacher and master. There are five aspects to training: 1) Training in His Presence by spending time with Jesus. 2) Training of His Word by living according to His teachings. 3) Training of His Spirit by yielding to the Holy Spirit. 4) Training through Fellowship by serving with other disciples. 5) Training of the Cross by carrying one's cross daily through single-minded devotion, suffering for Christ, and sacrificing all to follow Him. The goal is to be perfectly trained like one's teacher through this discipleship process.
We understand the Biblical definition of a disciple and the call given to every believer to journey into becoming a disciple of Jesus Christ.

Lição 12: João 15 a 17 – O Espírito Santo e a Oração Sacerdotal | 2° Trimestr...OmarBarrezueta1
Esta lição é uma oportunidade para discutirmos um assunto multo mal interpretado no contexto cristão, que é o fato de algumas pessoas pensarem que o conhecer Jesus é ter a nossa vida mudada em todas as áreas, como se Deus tivesse o dever de transportar-nos deste mundo para um outro mundo onde muitas coisas maravilhosas que desejamos seriam reais. No entanto, a nossa fé não nos tira do mundo após nos convertermos; ao invés disso, permanecemos vivendo sob as mesmas circunstâncias. O propósito de Deus não é nos tirar do mundo, mas nos livrar das ações do maligno (Jo 17.15), Sendo assim, a vida eterna não significa estar fora da realidade deste mundo, mas conhecer o único Deus verdadeiro (Jo 17.3).
2nd issue of Volume 15. A magazine in urdu language mainly based on spiritual treatment and learning. Many topics on ISLAM, SUFISM, SOCIAL PROBLEMS, SELF HELP, PSYCHOLOGY, HEALTH, SPIRITUAL TREATMENT, Ruqya etc.A very useful magazine for everyone.

PHASE-IV
The very deep experience of silence helps to expand from the 3 - dimensional awareness of the body to all pervasive awareness. The bed of silence becomes deeper and more expansive - an ocean of silence with waves on it merge into complete silence called Ajapa state of the mind. This silence is the source of Creativity, Power, Knowledge and Bliss.
PHASE V
From this deep ocean of silence in the heart region, let one OM emerge as an audible sound which diffuses into the entire body and the space all around. Enjoy the beautiful vibrations.

Introduction
Mantra Yoga is an exact science. "Mananat trayate iti mantrah- by the Manana (constant thinking or recollection) of which one is protected or is released from the round of births and deaths, is Mantra." That is called Mantra by the meditation (Manana) on which the Jiva or the individual soul attains freedom from sin, enjoyment in heaven and final liberation, and by the aid of which it attains in full the fourfold fruit (Chaturvarga), i.e., Dharma, Artha, Kama and Moksha. A Mantra is so called because it is achieved by the mental process.
Tales of This and Another Life - Chapters.pdfMashaL38
This book is one of the best of the translated ones, for it has a warning character for all those who find themselves in the experience of material life. Irmão X provides a shrewd way of describing the subtleties and weaknesses that can jeopardize our intentions, making us more attentive and vigilant by providing us with his wise pages, reminding us between the lines of the Master's words: "Pray and watch."
2. Faith is based on relationship.
Faith is a way of life..not a formula.
3. #1, Have A Desired Goal Based On God's Word
Hebrews 11:1
Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the
evidence of things not seen.
4. #2, Be Determined To Have What God Has
Promised
Matthew 15:28
Then Jesus answered and said to her, "O woman,
great is your faith! Let it be to you as you desire." And
her daughter was healed from that very hour.
5. #3, Fill Your Heart With The Word
Romans 10:17
So then faith comes by hearing, and hearing by the
word of God.
6. #4, Pray And Receive By Faith
Mark 11:24
Therefore I say to you, whatever things you ask when
you pray, believe that you receive them, and you will
have them.
7. #5, Speak Your Faith
Mark 11:22-23
22 So Jesus answered and said to them, "Have faith in
God.
23 For assuredly, I say to you, whoever says to this
mountain, 'Be removed and be cast into the sea,' and
does not doubt in his heart, but believes that those
things he says will be done, he will have whatever he
says.
8. #6, Act In Accordance To Your Faith
2 Thessalonians 1:11
Therefore we also pray always for you that our God
would count you worthy of this calling, and fulfill all
the good pleasure of His goodness and the work of
faith with power,
10. #6, Act In Accordance To Your Faith
James 2:22,26
22 Do you see that faith was working together with
his works, and by works faith was made perfect?
26 For as the body without the spirit is dead, so faith
without works is dead also.
11. #7, Thank And Praise God
Romans 4:20
He did not waver at the promise of God through
unbelief, but was strengthened in faith, giving glory to
God,
12. #8, Stay In Faith With Endurance
Hebrews 6:12
that you do not become sluggish, but imitate those
who through faith and patience inherit the promises.
13. #8, Stay In Faith With Endurance
Hebrews 10:35-36
35 Therefore do not cast away your confidence, which
has great reward.
36 For you have need of endurance, so that after you
have done the will of God, you may receive the
promise:
