The document discusses how God has equipped believers with "the sword of the Spirit which is the word of God" to aid them in spiritual battles. It explains that the Bible was written by about 40 men over 1500 years yet has one overarching theme of Jesus Christ because it was supernaturally inspired by the Holy Spirit of God. The Holy Spirit also helps believers understand scripture, which is described as living, powerful, and able to discern the thoughts of the heart.

1st november 2015 the soul and the spirit
1) The soul and spirit are the two primary immaterial aspects that Scripture ascribes to humanity. The soul refers to the life principle and seat of emotions and desires, while the spirit connects us to God and enables spiritual experiences.
2) The spirit is what keeps our body alive and allows us to have faith, accept God's promises, and understand spiritual things. When we are spiritually dead due to sin, only God can forgive our sins and give us life through our spirit.
3) The soul and spirit are connected but separable. The soul is our essence, while the spirit connects us to God and proves whether we belong to Him or resist Him. Proper worship requires worshiping God in both spirit
Love your Neighbour - A Spiritist View
The document discusses the importance of loving one's neighbor according to spiritual teachings. It cites the Bible verse that loving God and loving one's neighbor as oneself are the two greatest commandments. Spiritist texts explain that love is the finest sentiment that summarizes Jesus' complete doctrine. Selfishness is identified as the root of all vices, and spirits purify themselves of selfishness through successive lives. To truly love one's neighbor, individuals must think less of their own interests and realize that others have thought of them too. Loving one's neighbor expresses the most complete form of charity by summarizing all of man's obligations towards his fellow men.
The holy spirit
1. The Holy Spirit is a person, not just an active force, as evidenced by personal pronouns like "He" being used to refer to the Holy Spirit.
2. The Holy Spirit is distinct from both God the Father and God the Son based on biblical passages that reference all three persons of the Trinity.
3. Attributes of the Holy Spirit like having feelings and being grieved, imply personality and distinguish the Holy Spirit as a person rather than just a force.
Making Dynamic Disciples of Jesus - Part One

The second most important, Jesus says, is to love your neighbor as yourself. The teacher agrees, saying love of God and neighbor is more important than sacrifices. Jesus affirms the teacher is close to understanding the kingdom of God.

How Do You Find Peace
This is the third lesson of our four-part series about peace - part of the Fruits of the Spirit which we are talking about all year as All Saints Middle School Group.
Chapter 4
Evangelicals believe in two forms of divine revelation: general revelation through nature, and special revelation contained in scripture. General revelation reveals God as creator, while special revelation reveals God as redeemer and contains the only authoritative teachings about salvation. Both forms of revelation are necessary. While scripture is infallible, human interpretations can be fallible, so interpretations of both revelation sources should prioritize the understanding with more certainty, such as general revelation clarifying scripture where human understanding was previously in error.
Intercession chapter one
This document is an excerpt from a book about intercession as the key to the next move of God. It discusses how God created humanity in His image, with a will and ability to achieve purposes, though people are not yet limitless like God. Jesus restores humanity's ability to rule, as God exalted Him and gave Him all authority. As Christians identify with Christ, they can move God's hand and unleash His limitlessness through interceding in Jesus' name. The next move of God is linked to prayer, as humanity partners with God by willing His will through intercession.
Sunday of the Word of God
The Pope explains that the Holy Spirit is primordial to properly understanding Scripture. Without the Spirit's work, there is a risk of only focusing on the written text alone and developing a fundamentalist reading. The Spirit keeps Scripture dynamic and spiritual rather than limited. When Scripture is read in the light of the same Spirit who inspired it, it remains ever new and serves a prophetic function for the present rather than just the past or future. Those nourished by God's word through Scripture become contemporaries of all they encounter.
07 law and grace
The document discusses the relationship between God's grace and the Law. It argues that there was a divine Law in Heaven long before humans existed that established moral standards. God created humans with free will and established the Law to govern them on Earth as well. While the Law is necessary, obedience to it does not lead to salvation - God redeems humanity through grace alone, not works, and writing His Law upon our hearts through His Spirit. Grace forgives our violations of the Law and enables obedience as a response to God's redeeming love.
15th June 2016 - What is the Living Word…
The document discusses the concept of the "living word" from a Christian perspective. It provides several Bible verses to support the idea that the word of God is alive and active. Specifically:
1) The Bible has a vital power inherent to itself and accomplishes God's purposes, as the rain waters the earth.
2) The preaching of scripture brings about lasting, supernatural change within people by producing faith.
3) Like seeds, the Bible is living and has the power to bring forth more life abundantly when received by good soil (believers).
4) As the living word of the living God, the Bible penetrates deep within us, judges our hearts, and helps open our
Holy Spirit as Paraclete
This document discusses the doctrine of the Holy Spirit. It begins by explaining the Greek word for Holy Spirit, Paraclete, means Comforter or Encourager. It then discusses the Trinity, defining God as three persons (Father, Son, Holy Spirit) but one essence. The document examines how the Holy Spirit parallels and replaces the work of Christ on Earth after His ascension. It provides analysis from scholars Raymond Brown and J. Oswald Sanders arguing the Holy Spirit is a divine person, not just a power or influence.
Chapter 13
This document provides an overview of biblical inspiration and revelation. It discusses key passages that address these topics, such as 2 Peter 1:20-21 and 2 Timothy 3:16. The Bible testifies to itself as the word of God. While written through human authors, the Holy Spirit ensured the final text is infallible and without error. The mode of inspiration is mysterious but resulted in an authoritative text that is the final rule for faith and practice.

03 jesus and the apostles
Jesus and the apostles viewed the Bible as the highest authority and guide for faith and life. While the New Testament had not yet been written, they viewed the Old Testament scriptures as the Word of God. Jesus regularly quoted from the Old Testament when teaching and countering Satan's temptations. He saw the people and events described as actual history. The apostles and authors of the New Testament also viewed the entire Bible as inspired and accepted the words of the prophets. Both Jesus and the apostles provide the example that we should view all of the Bible as the foundation of faith.
An Example to Explore Trinity; From “Two fleshes to be one flesh” (Genesis 2:...
The document discusses the concepts of two becoming one flesh from Genesis and the Trinity of God. It argues that:
1) "Two fleshes becoming one" refers to unity and sharing the same vision/spirit, not a physical merging.
2) In marriage, love and submission create a "bundle power" allowing a couple to move together as one.
3) The Trinity involves three persons of God sharing the same divine substance and performing as a unity in creation, salvation, and revelation.
24th May 2017 - The work of the Holy Spirit
The Holy Spirit is truly a divine person, not an impersonal force. The Bible refers to the Holy Spirit with masculine pronouns and describes Him as having a mind, emotions, and will. The Holy Spirit is also identified as God, as evidenced by acts like searching hearts and minds, being able to be lied to or grieved, and His role in the Trinity along with the Father and Son. As the third person of the Godhead, the Holy Spirit possesses the attributes of God like omniscience and omnipresence.

This document discusses the human personality from a biblical perspective. It explains that humans were created in God's image and likeness, with the image referring to our outward appearance and likeness referring to our inner triune nature of spirit, soul, and body. It describes how through sin, Adam's spirit died and his soul became rebellious. This rebellious nature is now inherent in all of humanity. The document explores what this means for our condition and how Christ's work can address both the death of the spirit and the rebellion of the soul.

20th march 2016 The Book of Romans
The document provides an overview and summary of key passages from the Book of Romans. It identifies Paul as the author and notes he likely wrote it in AD 56-58.

Several important verses are summarized, including Romans 1:16 on the power of salvation, Romans 3:10-11 stating all have sinned, and Romans 8:28 that God works for good of those who love him. The book teaches that faith and confession in Jesus as Lord will lead to salvation, and believers should offer themselves as living sacrifices to God.
Jesus was teaching the greatest commandments
Jesus taught that the greatest commandments are to love God with all your being and to love your neighbor as yourself. When asked by a scribe which commandment is most important, Jesus said the first is to love God with all your heart, soul, mind and strength.

The greatest commandment
When questioned by Pharisees about the greatest commandment, Jesus responds that the greatest is to love God with all one's heart, soul, and mind. The second greatest commandment is to love your neighbor as yourself. Jesus says that following these two commandments fulfills the whole of Jewish law and prophecy. Loving God means making him the focus of one's entire being. Loving neighbors requires a supernatural ability to feel what others feel and put their needs first, which can only come through living according to the Spirit rather than human nature.

07 July 1, 2012 Philippians, Chapter 4, Verse 8
The document provides commentary on Philippians 4:8, which instructs believers to dwell on or think about whatever is true, honorable, right, pure, lovely, of good repute, excellent, and praiseworthy. The commentary explains each of these virtues and emphasizes the importance of disciplining one's mind to focus on spiritual truths from Scripture rather than emotions or pragmatism. Believers are to thoughtfully evaluate biblical qualities and apply them to their lives, as right thinking leads to right living and spiritual stability.

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
