Determination
There are two kinds of determination: wrong and right. The wrong determination is to continue in sin by clinging to human creeds, disobeying the gospel, and refusing to confess faults. The right determination is to know, do, and teach God's will by overcoming mountains of indifference, preconceived ideas, unbelief, pleasing man, fear, and doubts about making a difference or letting others do the work. Having the right determination means being determined to be saved now and eternally by obeying the gospel.

Momentum: Gaining Momentum
Momentum is a physical force that occurs when we multiply mass and velocity, or more simply put, size times speed. However, we experience momentum in other areas of our life, including our spiritual lives. Momentum has been described as a series of small wins that pave the way for even bigger victories. But in order to gain momentum, we have to overcome two large forces, inertia and resistance. Momentum is hard to build, challenging to maintain and in need of careful guidance. That being said, momentum is a "game changer". This first week we will look at one of the greatest examples of the rapid building of momentum... the first century church which was launched at Pentecost and quickly went viral.

Your Tormenting Thought Life: You or Satan?
Do you ever wonder where a specific thought is coming from? Is that “your” thought or is Satan planting his thoughts in your head?
Many of our incoming counseling clients have self-obsessed on this question and if they are in our office, it’s because they are not winning on the battlefield of the mind. Many are indeed tormented and are frustrated because they cannot suppress or eliminate these thoughts. Some are waging warfare but are getting worn out.
What is the problem? This slide deck looks at that issue.

Choose life
Moses bid farewell to Israel by reminding them of the Law of God. He reviewed the Ten Commandments (Deut. 5:1-22). Then he went on to cover various ordinances of the Law (Deut. 6-26).
He put before them a choice between life and death (Deut. 30:11-20). If they obeyed, there was life. If they disobeyed, there was death.
The choice is that simple for us: life or death through obedience or disobedience.
This lesson examines Moses’ words and makes application of these principles from the New Testament: (1) God’s command is for us; (2) God’s command is the difference between life/good and death/evil; (3) Choose life.

The document emphasizes the importance of having a loyal heart toward God rather than just outwardly obeying commands.
For we who are in this tent
The document discusses how God has prepared an eternal home for believers in heaven. While on earth, believers are absent from the Lord but aim to please him. Their temporary earthly bodies will be replaced by incorruptible, eternal, spiritual bodies. Though believers experience temporary problems and afflictions now, they are for a moment and working to produce eternal glory. The love of Christ compels believers to no longer live for themselves but for him, as he died and rose for them. Believers are called to walk by faith in eternal things, not sight of temporary things.

This document summarizes several Bible passages about God's justice. It discusses how God will repay with tribulation those who trouble believers and take vengeance on those who do not know or obey God. It also describes how God did not spare sinning angels, the ancient world, or Sodom and Gomorrah, but delivered righteous people like Noah and Lot. The document encourages believers to be diligent as they wait for Christ's return and to persevere in following the Gospel through which God called them.
For if there should come into your assembly
This document provides guidance on greeting visitors based on a passage from the book of James in the Bible. It emphasizes showing no partiality by wealth, ethnicity, or sin, and remembering that we were all once strangers. Visitors will quickly notice any hypocrisy, so members should demonstrate that their faith has works by being doers of the word of God. The document encourages leaving one's comfort zone to greet visitors, and quotes passages about welcoming strangers as yourself. It offers suggestions for making visitors feel welcomed, such as where to sit them, sharing information, developing friendships, and introducing them to others.
His rest
The document discusses the rest that God promised for His people. It notes that the Israelites who wandered in the wilderness for 40 years did not enter the promised rest due to their disobedience. Christians can diligently enter this rest by following Jesus, who is a better mediator and leader than Moses and has obtained forgiveness of sins through his death. Believers are encouraged to persevere in faith so as not to fall as the Israelites did through disobedience.
7 biblical principles for social media
This document outlines 7 biblical principles for using social media:
1) Do not let social media become an idol that takes time away from God.
2) Be careful of adultery, as social media has contributed to divorces by sharing private matters.
3) Do not flaunt possessions on social media to make others covetous.
4) Ensure your social media profile honors your parents.
5) Post without complaining or arguing.
6) Share words that are helpful rather than hurtful.
7) Choose Jesus as your top friend rather than the influences of the world.
Elijah
This document summarizes three biblical stories involving the prophet Elijah and fire:
1) Elijah challenges the prophets of Baal to a contest on Mount Carmel to prove whose god (Baal or Yahweh) answers with fire. Yahweh consumes the sacrifice with fire while Baal does nothing.
2) After fleeing from Jezebel, Elijah experiences God's power through a wind, earthquake, and fire at Mount Horeb.
3) God sends fire to consume two groups of soldiers sent to arrest Elijah when the new king Ahaziah consults a false god instead of Yahweh for help after an accident.
The christian’s job
The document outlines the duties of elders according to 1 Thessalonians 5:14. Elders are to warn those who are unruly, comfort the fainthearted, uphold the weak, and be patient with all. For each duty, the document provides guidance, such as going to an unruly person alone with love, comforting the fainthearted with scripture, helping the weak through encouragement, and being patient with leaders and those in need without growing weary.
Obedient children
This document discusses the importance of being obedient children through discussing passages from 1 Peter and 1 John about remaining in what was taught from the beginning and not being deceived. It warns about the dangers of ignorance through examples from the Bible. It also mentions resisting desires that go against God's will and the rewards of entering God's kingdom and using talents within God's law as his children as promised in the Bible.
Isaiah 51
The document discusses listening to God and awakening to his eternal salvation and righteousness. It tells believers to look to Abraham and Sarah as examples of trusting in God alone. It also speaks of God's coming justice to judge people, while his salvation is eternal. Believers are told not to fear what people say but to have strength in God. Jerusalem is told to awake, stop drinking God's fury, and be redeemed without cost.
Walk in the spirit
This document discusses walking in the spirit according to passages in Galatians and Ephesians. It encourages walking in love, as a child of light, and circumspectly as the days are evil. Quotes are provided emphasizing walking worthily of God and by the same rule. Works of the flesh like selfishness prevent inheritance of the kingdom, while the fruit of the spirit like love live through Christ and prevent conceit.
Lest you be consumed by one another
The document warns that Satan seeks to devour believers by encouraging them to bite and devour one another through conceit, provocation, and envy. It encourages remembering Christ, who brings peace by breaking down walls of separation and making all one in Him.

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
