The document discusses the nature of saving faith according to Ephesians 2:8-9. It argues that saving faith is not merely an intellectual belief, but includes repentance from sin, baptism, and cleansing. The passage describes how the Ephesians first trusted after hearing the word of truth, putting off their old sinful ways and being cleansed with the washing of water by the word. True saving faith that brings salvation is characterized by believing with repentance, baptism, and cleansing, not just an intellectual assent alone.

Advent: PEACE
Jesus came to bring peace for all people through his life and teachings. He reconciled humanity with God and provides peace to believers through faith, as mentioned in Romans and Colossians. Jesus also leaves his followers with peace to guard them during trials, different from any peace the world can offer. Finally, Jesus will return to rule with eternal peace for his people, as foretold in Isaiah and Revelation, rewarding those who make peace as God's sons.
Pastors as Disciples: Our Ongoing Need of the Grace of God in Sanctification
This document discusses the ongoing need for pastors and ministry leaders to pursue sanctification and grow as disciples of Jesus.

It encourages pastors to "fight the good fight of faith" through knowing their sins, confessing them, trusting their Savior, and fighting alongside other believers. The document emphasizes that pastors still need God's grace daily and warns against underestimating one's need for Christ and relationships in his body.
Fatal distractions
The document discusses the need for biblical faith in the face of moral decline. It argues that we need an informed faith based on God's word to survive life's storms. We must have faith that is effective in sharing the gospel, bold in the face of opposition, active in obedience, and morally pure as defined by scripture. Growing in faith through enduring trials will bring us closer to God according to his plan of salvation.

13. Review of Gospel Series
The document discusses why people refuse to believe in Jesus and the essential components of the gospel message. It explains that people refuse to believe because their hearts are sinful and they love darkness rather than light. It then outlines the gospel as: 1) Humans are sinful and spiritually dead, deserving God's wrath. 2) Jesus lived a perfect life, died on the cross to pay for sins, and rose again. 3) To be saved, one must repent of sins and place faith in Jesus. The gospel brings forgiveness and restores a right relationship with God.
Be strong

In her search for a solution, she's learned that the greatest spiritual battle of our generation is taking place between our ears. How we think shapes how we live. So it's crucial that we learn how to stop our spinning thoughts and refuse to fall prey to toxic thinking patterns like victimhood, anxiety, and distraction.

It then examines what Jesus, the Holy Spirit, and Scripture say about the importance of beliefs.

Acts 5:1-11 describes how Ananias and Sapphira sold some property but lied about how much they received, claiming to give all the proceeds to the church when they had secretly held some back. God struck them dead for their deception. The document uses this story to encourage Christians to truly give their all to God without holding anything back or lying about their gifts, as great givers like Barnabas encouraged the early church through their generous donations. It warns readers to examine whether they have fully surrendered to God in both their giving and living for Him without reservation.
Adult immersion baptism - meaning and significance
This document provides instruction about baptism based on passages from the Bible. It discusses that baptism involves fully immersing a disciple in water by an ordained servant of God or believer as a symbolic act of dying to sin and being reborn as a Christian. Baptism is meant to signify death, burial and resurrection with Christ and the beginning of a new life. It notes that while baptism is important, true repentance is also required for salvation. The document examines baptism in the Bible and different views throughout church history.
The Nature of Salvation
Is salvation by works, by faith through grace,or by sacraments? A clear explanation of the evangelical understanding of salvation.
Sp gifts 6
This document discusses spiritual gifts, which are supernatural abilities given to believers at salvation to minister to the body of Christ. Every believer receives one gift. Spiritual gifts fall into different categories, including authenticating gifts, foundational gifts, temporary gifts, equipping gifts, speaking gifts, and serving gifts. There are also permanent gifts like pastor-teacher, teacher, evangelist, and gifts of ruling and administration. The document encourages visiting the church's website to learn more about the church and listen to sermons that complement the teaching on spiritual gifts.
Spiritual Maturity (Bible Study)
What does it mean to be "spiritually mature?" These are handouts from a Bible study taught at Breath of Life International Church.
Spiritual gifts significances
1) The document discusses the significance of spiritual gifts in the church based on scripture references from Corinthians and Ephesians.
2) It describes how spiritual gifts are given by the Holy Spirit to different members of the church body to help build up and mature the body of believers.
3) The spiritual gifts come in a variety of forms tailored to individual members' personalities and roles, and are meant to unite and profit the entire church rather than the individual possessing the gift.

130721 eng shift series (part 2) by lim soo fee
This document discusses the Holy Spirit and spiritual gifts. It defines key terms like shift, encounter, enrich, and empower. It describes three shifts caused by the Holy Spirit: the philosophical shift, the power shift, and the personal shift. It then discusses the need for a power shift in the church. It outlines nine spiritual gifts including revelation gifts, inspiration gifts, and power gifts. For each gift, it provides examples from the Bible and explanations. Finally, it emphasizes that believers must desire spiritual gifts, develop the gifts through prayer and God's word, and deploy the gifts to serve others.
06-23-19, 1 Timothy 4;1-16, Staying On Course
This document provides an overview and summary of 1 Timothy 4:1-16. It discusses Paul's warning to the church in Ephesus about false teachers who will arise and spread deceiving doctrines. These false teachers forbid marriage and certain foods. Paul teaches Timothy to instruct the church using the whole counsel of God and to be an example to believers in his conduct. The purpose is to guard against false doctrine and save both himself and those who hear him. Satan's goal is to promote false doctrine and division in the church.

Faith of our fathers
The document discusses the faith of the apostles and founding fathers, comparing how they founded spiritual and physical nations respectively. It emphasizes that we are part of the story of both, as descendants of Abraham who are heirs to God's promise through faith in Jesus. The conclusion exhorts us to lay aside sin and run the Christian race of faith while looking to Jesus, who authored and perfected our faith.
Titus good works
1) Good works show who we truly are, but some people profess faith in God yet are disobedient and worthless for good works.
2) We need biblical patterns to learn good works, which help our teaching and withstand opponents.
3) God's people are zealous for good works because they understand they have been redeemed and are being transformed into Christ's image.
Joab's Insubordinatin Problem
This document summarizes key events and people in the biblical story of Joab. Joab was David's commander of the army and allied with him, but disobeyed David in two instances: killing Abner, the commander of King Ishbosheth's army, and killing Absalom, David's son who usurped his throne. The document outlines these events and Joab advising David at other times. It concludes by noting David commanded Solomon to kill Joab due to his disobedience, which overshadowed his good deeds.
Before you preach part 2
The document provides guidance for preaching based on 2 Timothy 4. It advises to preach sound doctrine using God's wisdom, be patient and let God's word do its work. It warns that some will reject the truth and surround themselves with false teachers. It instructs preachers to endure afflictions when preaching the gospel or pointing out apostasy, knowing that God is with them.
Before you preach. part 1
Moses stood up against false teachers despite facing frustration, requiring courage to stand outside one's comfort zone. Preachers should prepare for potential persecution from people and brethren who disagree, seeking only to please God rather than selfish ambition. Effective preaching requires using scripture as a sword to teach doctrine, rebuke error, correct faults, and instruct others as equipped by God, rather than focusing on the preacher.
Bringing christ into your marriage
This document discusses how to bring Christ into marriage through self-denial, trust, commitment, and forgiveness. It argues that just as Christians deny themselves, trust completely in God, commit fully to living for God, and forgive endlessly, spouses must do the same for their marriage: deny themselves, trust one another completely, commit fully to the marriage, and forgive each other repeatedly. Bringing Christ-like qualities to marriage is presented as key to having a successful marriage.
Hope
This document summarizes the key points from 1 Peter 1:3-9 about having a living hope as a Christian. It discusses that this hope comes from God and His promises, is made possible through the resurrection of Jesus Christ, and results in an inheritance that is incorruptible, undefiled, and will never fade away. While God protects this hope, believers also have a responsibility to access it through strong and enduring faith. Even during times of suffering, Christians can rejoice in this hope because it leads to future glory in heaven that outweighs and lasts beyond any temporary afflictions.
The golden rule
The document discusses common philosophies of men such as feeling good, might makes right, and legalism. It then outlines how to properly apply the Golden Rule by being a good neighbor, avoiding gossip, not jumping to conclusions, and not seeking revenge. Finally, it notes the Golden Rule provides unique solutions for personal convictions, correcting religious errors, and granting forgiveness.
Log out
This document discusses the negative effects of always being logged into the internet. It summarizes these effects in 3 sentences:
When we are always logged in, we unplug our influence in the world, disconnect from our brethren, stop communicating with our family, and lose important moments with our Lord. Staying constantly connected online causes us to neglect shining our light before others, encouraging fellow Christians, teaching God's word to our children, and spending precious time alone in prayer. Being continually plugged into technology removes us from real-world interactions and disconnects our relationship with God.
Standing On the Shoulders of Giants
This document discusses standing on the shoulders of giants, referring to building upon the knowledge and work of those who came before. It notes that Isaac Newton and Bernard of Chartres used this phrase, and that the Israelites inherited the infrastructure built by others. Similarly, Timothy learned the faith from his mother and grandmother. The document encourages handing down the labor and teachings of early American Christians, following the Apostles' way rather than discovering new doctrines. It discusses debates that took place centuries ago but which we now have answers to thanks to the work of others. The conclusion exhorts developing an open but discerning attitude like the Bereans when evaluating arguments.
Does the end justify the means
This document discusses the concept that godly ends must be reached through godly methods, and that the end does not justify the means. It provides examples from the Bible where people tried to rationalize ungodly methods by citing good intentions or ends, but God was not pleased with their disobedience. Specifically, it references Saul offering sacrifices himself instead of waiting for Samuel, and Saul's decision to spare captured wealth from the Amalekites against God's command. The document cautions against compromising truth or disregarding God's will in order to achieve goals.
Shepherds for the chief shepherd
The document discusses the roles and responsibilities of elders in the local church. It states that elders have been given authority by God and the Holy Spirit to oversee the church. It encourages entrusting and committing elders to the Lord, as his plan for church authority is good. It notes that if elders set a strong example, edify others, and work joyfully, then the congregation will benefit and be strengthened. The document concludes by reminding readers that as members of the congregation, they should submit to their elders and always desire to follow the Chief Shepherd, who is Christ.
The office of a deacon
This document discusses the role and qualifications of deacons in the church. It defines deacons as servants who minister to others. The Bible describes the first deacons as meeting practical needs in the early church. To become a deacon, one must demonstrate qualifications of character, including being grave, blameless, and not greedy. Deacons must also have proven Christian experience and be able to manage their household and children well. The document encourages self-reflection on whether one's life already meets these qualifications before taking on the role of deacon.
The Universal Church and the Local Church
The document discusses the benefits of exercise for mental health. Regular physical activity can help reduce anxiety and depression and improve mood and cognitive functioning. Exercise causes chemical changes in the brain that may help protect against mental illness and improve symptoms.
Equipping the Saints Hezekiah
Hezekiah strengthened Judah against the Assyrian king Sennacherib by equipping Jerusalem militarily and spiritually. He rebuilt walls, made weapons, and ensured the city's water supply. However, it was ultimately God who saved Jerusalem, not military technology alone. The document also discusses how Hezekiah showed Babylon all his treasures, fulfilling Isaiah's prophecy that Babylon would later rob Judah. It asks what motivates Satan to destroy homes, listing potential causes like sexual immorality, lack of doctrinal knowledge, and frustration leading to hate and gossip.
Those Who Desire to Be Rich
This document discusses wealth and the desire to be rich. It notes that while wealth itself is not evil and can be a gift from God, the desire to be rich can take one's focus away from God. References are made to passages in the Bible such as 1 Timothy 6:6-10, Matthew 5:23-26, and Ecclesiastes 5:10-17 that discuss the difficulties of the rich entering heaven and wealth not satisfying one. The rich man from Luke 12:13-21 is used as an example of one who focused on himself rather than God.
Slides for 7 15-8 am
The document provides guidance on managing finances in marriage from a biblical perspective. It discusses that money should not be loved over God and can destroy relationships if not properly managed. It encourages couples to be good stewards of what God provides and to make financial decisions together with integrity, trust, and open communication. Key issues that can harm marriages if not addressed include debt, lack of budgeting, selfishness over money, materialism, and failing to prioritize God and family over possessions.
Slides for 7 1-18 am
This document provides an introduction and overview for a study on preventing divorce by avoiding common pitfalls in marriage. It will cover positive actions and principles over multiple Sundays. The introduction discusses marriage, divorce and remarriage statistics. It also invites input from participants.
Key topics that will be covered include choosing the right mate, understanding roles, unrealistic expectations, compatibility, maturity, finances, and communication. Statistics on marriage trends like higher divorce rates for second and third marriages will also be presented. Common pitfalls like infidelity, finances, lack of intimacy, abuse and lack of commitment that can ruin marriages will be listed and discussed. Scriptures guiding Christian marriages will also be outlined.
The Church
The document discusses three temples in Haggai and how the glory of the latter temple is greater than the former. It provides context that in 538 BC, Zerubbabel and Joshua rebuilt the temple after the exile. In 520 BC, Haggai and Zechariah encouraged the people to finish rebuilding the temple despite delays. The temple was completed in 515 BC. God told the people rebuilding the second temple that the glory of this temple would be greater than the first temple built by Solomon. The greatest temple is the church, which Christ leads and cannot be destroyed.

This document discusses marriage, divorce and remarriage from a biblical perspective. It begins by noting the importance of using only the Bible as the standard for determining what is acceptable. The document then lists various positions that different religious groups take on the issues of divorce and remarriage, such as allowing it only for death of a spouse, for any legal cause, or for the innocent party in cases of adultery. It emphasizes that the word of God as revealed in scripture must be the sole standard used to evaluate these important issues.

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

Through Faith but When
- 1. “Through Faith,” But When? Ephesians 2:8,9
- 2. Faith is the channel “through” which salvation comes to us • But, what must characterize the saving kind of faith? • What about the kind of faith seen here? –John 12:42 Were these men saved by grace through faith? • What about the kind of faith seen here? -1 John 4:2,3 Does faith in Jesus have to include specific things? • What about the kind of faith seen here? –Acts 2:36-37 You are convicted of the truth but have not yet repented?
- 3. Explore the Moment in Ephesians • First TRUSTED -1:12,13 AFTER heard the word of truth • Was it “WITH” repentance or without repentance? • There was the “putting off” of the old man and the “former conduct”-4:20-24 • So, “through faith” that stops living the same sinful life • Was it “WITH” baptism or without baptism? • There was “one baptism” that all engaged – Eph.4:5; Acts 19:6 • There was “cleansing” –Eph.5:26 • There was cleansing “WITH the washing of water by the word”
- 4. Conclusion • Notice the prepositions of salvation: BY, THROUGH, WITH • We are saved BY grace • We are saved THROUGH faith • Were are cleansed WITH the washing of water by the word • Have YOU been saved by grace through faith WITH the washing of water by the word?
