The document summarizes a sermon given at Westview Baptist Church about Peter's experience in Acts 10, in which he has a vision telling him it's acceptable to preach to Gentiles, goes to Cornelius's house, and preaches about Jesus, leading Cornelius and his household to become believers. The sermon discusses how Peter initially had prejudices but left them behind to simply talk about Jesus. It concludes by urging listeners to not get in God's way, listen to him, go where he sends them, leave prejudices behind, focus on Jesus, and give others Jesus.

I have sanctified this house
Solomon receives confirmation that God has accepted the temple Solomon built to house God's name. This passage is a representation of Jesus Christ building believers as God's temple through faith in Him. When Jesus intercedes for believers, the Father answers by sanctifying them and dwelling in them through His Spirit, just as He promised to dwell in the temple Solomon built. Believers are washed, sanctified, and justified in Jesus' name.
Restoration
This document discusses the history of restoration movements within Christianity. It argues that while God has the right to reform individuals and His covenant, people cannot reform God. The document outlines several biblical examples of restoration, including Asa, Joash, Hezekiah restoring the Lord's house. It also discusses how Peter, James, and Paul restored the pure gospel, and how John restored his original preaching against Gnostic teachings. The restoration movement of the 1800s in America sought to restore reliance on scripture alone, baptism for remission of sins, and the oneness of all believers.

It summarizes that Paul wrote to the believers in Colossae around 61 AD to show the supremacy of Christ and refute the heresy. The heresy involved legalism regarding diets, festivals and Sabbath days. Paul teaches that believers are complete in Christ alone and should not let anyone judge them regarding such religious rules or traditions.
Would you do a favor to yourself?
This document encourages the reader to accept Jesus Christ as their savior. It provides several Bible verses supporting this call to faith, including John 3:16 which states that "God so loved the world, that he gave his only Son, that whoever believes in him should not perish but have eternal life." The document urges readers to confess with their mouth and believe in their heart that Jesus is Lord to receive salvation. It warns that not believing will result in condemnation, but that through faith in Jesus, one can become a child of God and receive eternal life.
Would you do a favor to yourself
This document encourages the reader to accept Jesus Christ as their savior. It provides several Bible verses supporting that Jesus died for humanity's sins and that one must believe in him to be saved and have eternal life. The document instructs the reader to pray, confessing Jesus as lord and son of God, to accept him into their heart and become a child of God. It warns that not believing in Jesus will result in condemnation and encourages being baptized after believing.
Pray for what?
The document lists 20 examples of things from the gospels that Christians can pray for, including daily nourishment, blessing of children, unity of faith, avoiding temptation, forgiveness, mercy, protection of believers, eternal life, and thanking God for revealing truth. It encourages praying privately rather than publicly, believing prayers will be answered, praying with persistence, and praying for enemies. The overall message is that prayer should be an important part of the Christian life.
Exodus 31, When was the Sabbath changed, or, who changed the Sabbath,ss
The document discusses when and by whom the Sabbath was changed according to Scripture. It summarizes that the Sabbath was never actually changed and was always meant for Israel alone under the Old Testament law. It was given specifically to the Israelites in Exodus 16 and Exodus 20 reminds them of this commandment, not introducing a new one. While the Sabbath law required the death penalty for breaking it, Jesus fulfilled the law so Christians are no longer bound by it, but are under the law of Christ instead. The early church met on Sundays to commemorate Jesus' resurrection.

2. How Do I Begin to Disciple Someone? KeyNote
In this second of four sessions of our “Being and Making Disciples” workshop help in Sacele on September 1,2012 we answered the question “How Did I Begin to Disciple Someone?. We started by looking at things we should take into consideration even before we start discipling someone like how we should model Jesus, the importance of focusing on relationships and the goal of what we do in discipleship. We then went on to look at five key things we should do to help those we are discipling to get off to a good start.
11-10-19, Ephesians 5;15-21, Walking Wisely
This document provides a summary and analysis of Ephesians 5:15-21. It discusses walking wisely and understandingly as a Christian in an evil world. Some key points:
- Christians should "look carefully how you walk", putting off the old nature and putting on the new continually.
- Evil days present opportunities to demonstrate faith, not obstacles. Trials allow Christians to show God's sufficiency and make demands on Him.
- Walk understandingly by recognizing evil days create opportunities and not feeling unique in facing difficulties. Walk overflowingly by being filled with the Spirit.
- The will of God is less about guidance and more about what pleases Him - having faith in what He says about

The Revelation Chapter 7 Working Copy.docx
John witnesses the sealing of God's 144,000 witnesses, and he hears the crying out or shouting of an unnumbered multitude of those who have been saved during the great tribulation.
This is an intermission scene before opening the seventh seal. We have seen six seals opened revealing of the events that would shortly occur. The first 4 reveal what was to occur in the great tribulation during the destruction of Jerusalem by the Romans in AD70.
The fifth seal reveals the question from those slain as to when the Lord would avenge their death. The sixth seal reveals the answer to them from the One on the throne and of the Lamb which would be the punishment of their persecutors and accomplices. John sees four messengers/angels holding back the four winds of the earth & keeping them from blowing on the earth, the sea or any tree. In this figurative language, these are not heavenly messengers/angels. These represent those who are trying to restrain the word of God everywhere. Their efforts are restrained by the messenger in verse 2, preventing them from holding back the 4 winds, the spread of the gospel of Christ by His messengers/angels. These 4 winds stand on the four corners of the earth, Rome’s worldwide influence to stop its spread. But the gospel will be preached in all the earth. See the study for the Bible passages that support this. John hears the commands given relating to the sealing of the servants of God and the figurative number representing them. John sees a great multitude standing before the throne of all nations and kindreds and people and tongues who are clothed with white robes. All the messengers/angels stood around the throne and the elders and the four beasts fell before the throne and worshipped God. One of the elders asks John what those were that were wearing white robes. John said he knew and the elder identifies them. The chapter ends with his explanation.

Lição 12: João 15 a 17 – O Espírito Santo e a Oração Sacerdotal | 2° Trimestr...
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).
The Significance of the Locust Army in Revelation 9

Is Lucid Dreaming Dangerous? Risks and Benefits!
Lucid Dreaming: Understanding the Risks and Benefits
The ability to control one's dreams or for the dreamer to be aware that he or she is dreaming. This process, called lucid dreaming, has some potential risks as well as many fascinating benefits. However, many people are hesitant to try it initially for fear of the potential dangers. This article aims to clarify these concerns by exploring both the risks and benefits of lucid dreaming.
The Benefits of Lucid Dreaming
Lucid dreaming allows a person to take control of their dream world, helping them overcome their fears and eliminate nightmares. This technique is particularly useful for mental health. By taking control of their dreams, individuals can face challenging scenarios in a controlled environment, which can help reduce anxiety and increase self-confidence.
Addressing Common Concerns
Physical Harm in Dreams Lucid dreaming is fundamentally safe. In a lucid dream, everything is a creation of your mind. Therefore, nothing in the dream can physically harm you. Despite the vividness and realness of the dream experience, it remains entirely within your mental landscape, posing no physical danger.
Mental Health Risks Concerns about developing PTSD or other mental illnesses from lucid dreaming are unfounded. As soon as you wake up, it's clear that the events experienced in the dream were not real. On the contrary, lucid dreaming is often seen as a therapeutic tool for conditions like PTSD, as it allows individuals to reframe and manage their thoughts.
Potential Risks of Lucid Dreaming
While generally safe, lucid dreaming does come with a few risks as well:
Mixing Dream Memories with Reality Long-term lucid dreamers might occasionally confuse dream memories with real ones, creating false memories. This issue is rare and preventable by maintaining a dream journal and avoiding lucid dreaming about real-life people or places too frequently.
Escapism Using lucid dreaming to escape reality can be problematic if it interferes with your daily life. While it is sometimes beneficial to escape and relieve the stress of reality, relying on lucid dreaming for happiness can hinder personal growth and productivity.
Feeling Tired After Lucid Dreaming Some people report feeling tired after lucid dreaming. This tiredness is not due to the dreams themselves but often results from not getting enough sleep or using techniques that disrupt sleep patterns. Taking breaks and ensuring adequate sleep can prevent this.
Mental Exhaustion Lucid dreaming can be mentally taxing if practiced excessively without breaks. It’s important to balance lucid dreaming with regular sleep to avoid mental fatigue.
Lucid dreaming is safe and beneficial if done with caution. It has many benefits, such as overcoming fear and improving mental health, and minimal risks. There are many resources and tutorials available for those interested in trying it.
sanskrit yoga mantras chanting for yoga class
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.

OM Meditation - ultimate meditation technique
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.
Blink the eyes slowly, gently open the eyes and come out of meditation.
