The fruit of the spirit pt 9 self control (sg june 2015)
The document discusses the concept of self-control from both secular and biblical perspectives.

Jesus Christ died for us, so that we live with him no matter how alive and falling asleep. How did this happen? So wake up, what's the same as falling asleep? This is a difficult puzzle, but if we know that everyone is open in front of him whether it is a living or dead, and his intention is to live in him. When we live in him At that time, we are no longer ourselves but a part of Jesus Christ, so no matter whether it is life or death, it exists with the god of eternal life.

This article discusses facing difficulties in life through the metaphor of a rainy day. The author was feeling discouraged due to her son's developmental delays, upcoming job and housing changes, and other challenges. Looking outside, she saw a bird hunting for worms made visible by the rain. She understood this as a message from God that the storms in her life, though difficult, have provided spiritual blessings that have fed and strengthened her, like the worms fed the bird. While challenges remain, focusing on these blessings allows her to remain hopeful even in hard times.
Bema Judgment from Willmington Guide to the Bible
The bema judgment is not about determining salvation, but about evaluating believers' works and stewardship since salvation. Believers will give an account for how they used their gifts, treated others, exercised authority, spent money, suffered for Christ, spent time, ran their race, controlled their sin nature, and witnessed to souls. Works will be tested and classified as gold, silver, precious stones (worthy), or wood, hay, stubble (worthless). Rewards in heaven will be based on faithful stewardship and productivity for the kingdom.
11-01-20, Isaiah 46;3-13, God Acts
This document provides a summary of a Sunday school class discussion on putting God first in all things and trusting in His care. It includes summaries of Bible passages from Isaiah, Psalms, and Matthew discussing not worshipping idols and trusting that God watches over His people. The hymn "His Eye is on the Sparrow" is analyzed, inspired by verses on God caring for even sparrows. The class discussed how tragedies can humble us and that God saves those who recognize their need.
11-01-20, Isaiah 46;3-13, God Acts
This document contains the summary of a sermon given at First Baptist Church in Jackson, Mississippi. It discusses Isaiah 46:3-13, focusing on God's care for his people and how he alone is worthy of worship unlike idols. It includes quotes from the Bible passage and hymns like "His Eye is on the Sparrow" to illustrate the theme that God watches over and protects believers.
100912 Flower Child Theology
The document discusses the Calvinist doctrine of perseverance of the saints, also known as "once saved, always saved." It presents arguments both for and against the idea that one can lose their salvation. Key points include: 1) Calvinists believe that if one is truly saved they can never lose salvation, while others point to biblical warnings about falling away from faith. 2) Several passages are discussed that condition eternal life on ongoing faith, obedience, and not forgetting God. 3) The idea that one's name can potentially be erased from the book of life is presented.
Josephs trials
Suffering and trials are an inevitable part of life in this fallen world. However, through enduring hardship patiently, our characters are purified and strengthened as we develop qualities like faith, patience and humility. While suffering is never pleasant, it can provide valuable life lessons when we accept it as part of God's plan for our growth and progression. The Atonement of Jesus Christ allows us to learn from both our mistakes and hardships without being condemned by them.
01 January 24, 2016, Matthew 7;13-27, Two Paths, One Choice
This document provides a summary of a sermon given at First Baptist Church in Jackson, Mississippi on January 24, 2016. The sermon focuses on Matthew 7:13-27 and discusses the two paths that Jesus says people can choose - the narrow path that leads to life or the wide path that leads to destruction. It encourages believers to discern false teachings by examining the fruits or results, and warns that not everyone who claims to know Jesus or do works in his name will enter the kingdom of heaven but only those who obey God. The sermon closes by emphasizing the importance of building one's life on the unshifting foundation of God's word.
Except by Prayer & Fasting
The document discusses how the disciples failed to cast out a certain demon despite having authority from Jesus to perform miracles. It says they lacked faith and did not fast, which is necessary for some demons. Fasting raises one's spiritual authority and causes God's glory and presence to act as a shield. The after-effects of fasting include healing, righteousness, God's guidance, and strength to continue building up generations. Fasting uproots and destroys evil influences to make way for new growth.
The fullness Within
1) The document discusses God's design of the human body and ecosystem. It notes a recent discovery of the interstitium, a layer of tissue beneath the skin that connects all parts of the body.
2) It explores God breathing life into creation and humanity, and how faith allows God's promises to be realized within us.
3) Several Bible verses are referenced that discuss God knowing us and having a plan for our lives before we were born.
Dealing with Stress.pptx
The document discusses how stress can negatively impact physical health and provides biblical principles for coping with stress. It notes that the Bible teaches we should focus on things that are true, honorable, just, pure, and praiseworthy. When facing overwhelming problems or stress, the Bible instructs us to pray, spend time in nature, and find healthy activities. It also promises that God will comfort us in times of trouble and provide peace. Even in very difficult, stressful situations, God can give us strength and help us endure through prayer.
LDS Gospel Doctrine Book of Mormon Lesson 8
Jacob gives a multi-day sermon to his people, focusing on the atonement of Jesus Christ and how it provides redemption from both physical and spiritual death. He quotes extensively from Isaiah to emphasize how the atonement allows people to overcome all their sins and shortcomings. Jacob encourages his people to have faith in Jesus Christ, repent of their sins, and endure to the end in following the straight and narrow path to salvation. He promises that God will remember His covenant people and not forsake those who trust in Him.

Jesus has been called the "Great Physician." We think of His miracles of healing. But those miracles of healing our physical bodies point to a far greater miracle--the healing of our heart and soul. He doesn't just mean physical life and death. He points to something greater--spiritual life and death, both in this world and the next.

We can spend a lifetime looking for that which will fill our souls. We can look far and wide, with people, with events, with experiences, with acquisitions, and with just about anything else you of which comes to mind. But we will never touch the deepest parts of our soul until we find what Jesus called "living water." We will experience more of that living water as we become dispensers of living water, just like the woman we'll study this week!

But most folks aren't interested, not believing they need rescuing, and certainly not interested in the remedy for sin.

We so often hear the story of Mary this time of year, but it’s just as easy to gloss over the extreme cost it would have been to a young girl, to find herself graced with this ‘favor’ from God. What did it cost her in terms of her life’s plans? What did it cost her socially, with her family, with friends and neighbors? What does radical obedience cost us?

The document discusses Jesus as the coming king who will reign eternally based on passages from the Bible. It describes Jesus' birth being foretold and the Magi coming to worship the newborn king. While Jesus' kingdom is not of this world, it refers to God's rule over people's hearts and will continue to grow until the end of time. Jesus is the king of kings and ruler of everything who will welcome his followers into the kingdom of glory in heaven.

That He has experienced these things is meant to comfort you, lift you, and carry you along in during times like these. It's the HUMANITY of Jesus that surprises us with rest for our souls.

Beneath people's veneer are hidden questions. "Do I matter? Do I matter to anyone? Does someone really care about me?" People hunger and thirst for real "life," that sense of satisfaction that comes from being deeply connected with God and others. That is what Christ offers us, and He offers this real "life" through us to others! What we all want to know, is how does this happen?
Understanding the bible
The document discusses issues people have with the Bible and argues for its authority and trustworthiness. It notes that Jesus viewed the Bible as a story that reaches its climax in his life, and that he considered it trustworthy and authoritative. The document argues that Jesus is the ultimate authority, but that he mediates his authority through scripture, so obeying the Bible means obeying Jesus.
Jeremiah weeps for his nation
Jeremiah lamented over his people, weeping for their unfaithfulness and the destruction that would come. As the prophet of God, he faced opposition and persecution for delivering messages of judgment. He proclaimed that Jerusalem would fall to Babylon due to their sins. Still, God expressed tender compassion for Israel and a hope that they would one day return to Him.

It describes how God gave humans dominion over the earth and commanded them to work, highlighting how work is sacred. It then lists qualities that lead to prosperity like diligence, handling responsibilities, honesty, and planning. The document warns of dangers when government overreaches and takes from the people. It concludes calling for wisdom in governing people.
Gender our biblical worldview part 7 seth g october 18 2020
In our day there is growing confusion about gender. There is a secular movement of thinking that seeks to minimize or obliterate any differences between genders. In this secular way of thinking, gender is something that one feels or identifies as. This is like leaving a great sailing ship on the high seas without sails and a rudder. It will be carried along wherever the current wishes, adrift on the open seas. The unintended consequences of this thinking is to create greater confusion for young people who already struggle with their gender and confusing feelings of their identity, but there is a wondrous design to complementary gender that seeks to build intimacy in a marriage, deeper relationships with people, and reflects the wonder of our Trinitarian God.

What does the bible say about marriage? Up until 15-20 years ago this was not a "controversial" topic. Everyone knew the answer. Our secular culture continues to send its tsunami waves at our Judeo-Christian heritage, causing great confusion. How are we to think about same-sex marriage? What does the bible say? Before we address those questions we will spend time reviewing what makes a marriage a biblical marriage.
Sanctity of life
As we continue our conversation on a Christian worldview, specifically as it deals with thinking through this upcoming election we are diving deeper and deeper into different issues. This week we are looking at the sanctity of life. What it means to be made in the image of God, to have value, and to be worthy of life, no matter what stage of life you are in.
A Biblical Worldview - The Role of Government
Our task is to always learn God's eternal truths and apply them to our lives. This includes how God views government. What does the bible say about government?
How do the bible's stories illustrate the truth or foolishness of how government is done? How do we apply the biblical truths in our country? This requires wisdom, discernment, humility and what the Bible calls "good sense."

We are a worshiping community. In that community our joys are magnified, and our sorrows shared. Unity, the experience of community that worships God together, serves together, loves together, and shares common purposes provides joy for the heart that cannot be found in isolation. We'll find five examples in the Psalms of Assent that illustrate our need for community and the opportunities community provides in a difficult world.

Astronism, Cosmism and Cosmodeism: the space religions espousing the doctrine...
This lecture created by Brandon Taylorian (aka Cometan) specially for the CESNUR Conference held Bordeaux in June 2024 provides a brief introduction to the legacy of religious and philosophical thought that Astronism emerges from, namely the discourse on transcension started assuredly by the Cosmists in Russia in the mid-to-late nineteenth century and then carried on and developed by Mordecai Nessyahu in Cosmodeism in the twentieth century. Cometan also then provides some detail on his story in founding Astronism in the early twenty-first century from 2013 along with details on the central Astronist doctrine of transcension. Finally, the lecture concludes with some contributions made by space religions and space philosophy and their influences on various cultural facets in art, literature and film.

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.

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.

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 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.

Muladhara is the root centre of physical experience, located at the base of the spine, the sacral plexus. The square represents the earth itself, the four dimensions and the four directions. Four allows for completion, and earth embodies the elements and conditions for human completion on all levels.
Muladhara Chakra is the meeting place of the three main nadis: Ida, Pingala and Sushumna. The downward-pointing triangle indicates the downward movement of energy and the three main nadis.
The seed mantra is Lam, the yellow square represents the earth element. The Muladhara chakra governs the vital breath Apana. An inverted triangle in the centre of the square encloses the unmanifest Kundalini, represented as a snake wrapped in three and a half coils around the svayambhu (self born) linga. Because her mouth faces downward, the flow of energy is downward.
The opening at the entrance of the sushumna is called brahma-dvara, the door of Brahma, which is closed by the coils of the sleeping Kundalini. As soon as one begins working with Muladhara chakra, this dormant energy awakens, raises its head and flows freely into the channel of Sushumna, the central nerve canal that runs along the spine. These two aspects of the kundalini: sleeping and waking, are identified as her “poison” and her “nectar.” The kundalini is poison when she remains asleep in the lower abdomen; she is nectar when she rises up through Sushumna, the medial channel, to reunite with Siva, the Absolute, in the yogin’s cranial vault.
In the pericarp is found the presiding deity Brahma, the lord of creation. His skin is the color of wheat, he wears a yellow dhoti and a green scarf. Brahma is four-faced, four-armed, holding in his upper left hand a lotus flower, the symbol of purity.

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.
