We are advised to respond to suffering as Jesus did, by remembering God's good plans, rejoicing in all circumstances, and refusing to give up.

Repentance involves turning away from sin and toward God through faith in Jesus. It is a change of mind and heart that acknowledges one's sin and need for salvation, and trusts fully in Jesus alone to save through his atoning death. True repentance goes beyond feeling sorry for sins to a broken recognition of having offended a holy God, and a decision to live according to God's will from that point onward through Jesus.

These notes are taken from Chafer's book and reflect his dispensationalist view of covenants and theology. Of you are not taking my course at LTCi I recommend treating this with great care as you don't have me explaining what is meant, and in some cases why I disagree with him.
This document contains notes from a sermon and life group study guide on rejoicing about salvation. The sermon discussed passages from John 17:1-5 and 1 John 5:1-13 about eternal life being found through faith in Jesus Christ as the Son of God. The study guide then provides questions for reflection on how believers can glorify God through their daily lives and obedience, as well as questions addressing doubts about salvation and the key lessons from the sermon.
1. Sleep is a gift from God that allows the body to rest and recharge. It can be an act of worship when one entrusts their care to God while sleeping.
2. The Sabbath, or one day of rest per week, is meant for solemn rest and holy convocation where people come together to reflect on God. Regular periods of extended rest, like vacations, are also important to remain healthy and worshipful.
3. Both sleep and Sabbath rest point to the salvation believers have in Christ, who offers eternal rest through his sacrifice on the cross.
The document discusses living humbly based on examples from the Bible. It notes that Peter was given a second chance after denying Jesus three times, showing there is hope for repentance. It encourages taking responsibility for failures and letting go of guilt. It also advises surrendering to God's strength and purpose, as His power is made perfect in weakness and He sets the heart free.

In order to rightly divide the word of truth, we must understand the context of God's word, which to at least some extent, is impacted by history and timing. This Bible study delves into the dispensations of time, revealing God's relationship with mankind in each.

This document discusses how God uses problems and difficulties in our lives to shape us and conform us to His purposes. It notes that Christians are not protected from trouble in this world and that God causes all things to work together for good for those who love Him. Several Bible verses are presented that discuss how God uses suffering and hardship to produce perseverance, character, and hope in us. The document encourages readers to keep trusting God during difficulties, to be thankful in all circumstances, and to not give up during trials as they help strengthen our faith.
The document discusses spiritual warfare against pride of life, which is defined as thinking too highly of oneself, possessions, or achievements rather than God. It identifies three sources of temptation: lust of the flesh from physical pleasures, lust of the eyes from discontent, and pride of life. Strategies are given to put to death earthly desires, renew the mind, guard what you allow in, ask God for help, be content, and clothe oneself in humility rather than pride. Victory over temptation leads to purity, contentment, and pleasing God, while yielding leads to immorality, covetousness, idolatry, and displeasing God.
This document outlines a forgiveness formula with six ingredients: 1) Sincerely fear God's disappointment, 2) Recognize your separation from God, 3) Abandon all pride, 4) Demonstrate deep change, 5) Plead genuinely for atonement, and 6) Be patient. It discusses biblical and Book of Mormon passages about forgiveness and atonement through Jesus Christ. Key concepts are that forgiveness reconciles us to God and covers our sins through His grace and love.
The document contains several Bible verses about faith, prayer, devotion to God, righteousness through faith in Jesus Christ, casting anxiety on God, fearing and revering the Lord, working with all one's heart for God, faith being sure of what is hoped for and certain of what is not seen, and being blessed if pure in heart.
Baptism does not change the heart, remove temptation, or guarantee eternal salvation. While baptism is essential, it does not alone ensure salvation or make one sinless. Baptism requires faith and repentance preceded by a change of heart, mind, emotions, and will. It must be followed by continual obedience to Christ through worship, service, and seeking heavenly things until death.
Jun 8, 08 Pm Model Of Determination Judges 6Robert Bliss
God calls a man named Gideon from his hometown to deliver Israel from their enemies. God promises to be with Gideon and strengthen him. Gideon is determined to obey God's call, trusting in God's strength and not his own. He answers God's call through Scripture, remains faithful, and looks for opportunities from God, leading to God granting victory over their oppressors.
God renewed the covenant with Israel after rescuing them from slavery in Egypt. God showed grace by tenderly leading Israel out of slavery and into a relationship with Him. God redeemed Israel from slavery by liberating them, paying the price to free them from bondage. At Mount Sinai, God proposed the covenant to Israel through the Ten Commandments. Obedience was key to the covenant, though true obedience comes from faith, not from trying to earn salvation through works. Commitment to the covenant required faith in God's righteousness, not reliance on human effort alone.
The document discusses the three main barriers that can contaminate Christians - the lust of the flesh, the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life. It describes each barrier and provides biblical references. It then offers three ways to break these barriers: 1) crucify the flesh through avoiding sin, 2) fix your eyes on Jesus by seeking God's word and avoiding sinful sights, and 3) humble yourself before God and others and accept correction. In conclusion, it encourages young Christians to break barriers of immaturity and live freely in holiness.
The new covenant that Jesus established through his blood transforms our lives by bringing joy, liberation from guilt, new thoughts, the hope of eternal life, and a mission. It provides an inner peace and joy that comes from believing in Jesus and having a personal relationship with God. Through the new covenant, we are freed from the burden of sin and guilt. Our thoughts are renewed as we understand God's love. We have the hope of eternal life rather than the second death. As God's chosen people, we have a mission to proclaim the good news of the gospel to others.
This document discusses Joshua's transition from military leader to governor and the allocation of land to the Israelite tribes. It makes three key points:
1) God reminds the aging Joshua that though he is old, there is still land left to possess. Joshua is to oversee dividing the land among the tribes.
2) Principles for possessing the land include obstacles that must be overcome, ongoing opportunities, and the obligation to fully claim what God commands.
3) Joshua carried out partitioning the land satisfactorily, with tribes accepting their allotments and fully expelling non-Israelite occupants as God intended.
The document contains several Bible verses from both the Old and New Testaments. The verses cover topics such as God's love and provision for humanity, righteousness, wisdom, salvation, forgiveness, faithfulness, and seeking the good of others over oneself.
The document summarizes the prayer of Jabez from 1 Chronicles 4:9-10. Jabez prayed that God would bless him, enlarge his borders, have his hand upon Jabez, and keep him from evil. The prayer is broken down into four parts: 1) bless me, 2) enlarge my borders, 3) have your hand upon me, and 4) keep me from evil. The document encourages praying for others and being available for God to use and strengthen. It suggests being willing to attempt things you can't do on your own and that greater spiritual significance brings greater temptation from evil.
Salvation is a free gift from God procured by Christ's death that saves believers from sin and eternal death. It involves justification, redemption, and glorification. While salvation secures eternal life, faithfulness to Christ is required to receive rewards. The document discusses various theological views on how salvation is appropriated, including through faith alone or through works, and establishes that salvation is simply received through believing in Christ, not by any human effort or action.
Purpose driven life 3 - discipleship part 2Meki Carolino
1. God uses unexpected tools like troubles, temptations, and choices to teach us and draw us closer to Him.
2. Temptations are designed to give us opportunities to choose obedience to God over giving in to temptation. While God does not tempt us, He can use Satan's temptations for good in our lives.
3. Staying focused on God's truths and seeking support from other believers can help us resist temptation and instead find the strength to obey God during difficult times.
1) The document discusses the history and significance of communion and the Lord's Supper in the Bible and early church.
2) It describes how Jesus established the tradition of the Last Supper and its symbolism of bread and wine representing his body and blood.
3) It summarizes Paul's teachings to the Corinthians about properly discerning and partaking in communion as a unified community, rather than exacerbating divisions, to avoid bringing judgment on themselves.
Even though we know prayer is vital, it’s not always the easiest habit to maintain. Jesus’ teaching on prayer is recorded in Scripture, so let’s look at His instructions and grow in this area.

Even though we know prayer is vital, it’s not always the easiest habit to maintain. Jesus’ teaching on prayer is recorded in Scripture, so let’s look at His instructions and grow in this area.
This document encourages believers to pray bold, ambitious prayers that are worthy of God's power and glory. It notes that God calls us to ask Him for "great and mighty things" we don't even know, and cites examples from the Bible of individuals like Jabez who asked God for big blessings. The document suggests praying for inheritance over nations and possession of the earth, and notes that the early church prayed earnestly for Peter's release from prison. The overall message is that Christians should pray God-sized prayers that reflect our faith in a BIG God who can do exceedingly abundantly above all we ask or think.
God loved the world so much that he sent his one and only Son, Jesus, so that all who believe in him will not perish but have eternal life. God did not send his Son to condemn the world but to save it, so that through believing in Jesus, one can have eternal life and be put right with God. The Bible warns that those who touch Israel, whom God calls the apple of his eye, will face His judgment and wrath.
John was one of Jesus's inner circle who was with him from the beginning. He took care of Mary after Jesus's death and authored the Gospel of John and the book of Revelation. As an elder in the church at Ephesus, John was exiled to the island of Patmos where he received a revelation from Jesus about what must soon take place.
The document discusses the fear of the Lord and what it means to live in the fear of the Lord. It explains that the fear of the Lord is living in awe, respect, and honor towards God, putting Him first in life. It outlines three things about living in the fear of the Lord: having the right attitude of listening to God and treasuring His commands, taking the right actions of obeying God and walking with integrity, and receiving rewards like joy, wisdom, and avoidance of evil.
This document discusses building a strong family through wisdom, knowledge, and focusing on fear of the Lord, love, and peace. It notes that righteous families will be blessed and children should be taught God's words from youth. It outlines five phases of parenting from infant to caring for adult children and emphasizes disciplining children with love to bring peace and joy. Parents are advised to have clear rules without rebellion, choose battles wisely, and admit mistakes while setting expectations to help children fulfill their purpose.
This document discusses the importance of family according to passages from Proverbs. It notes that wisdom builds a strong house and family, while trouble within the family inherits trouble. It is better to have little with peace than great wealth with turmoil. A meal with loved ones is better than a feast with those you hate. Righteousness blesses one's children. Disciplining children brings peace of mind. Training children in the right way leads them not to depart from it when older.
This document discusses two Bible verses about God's love for the world and his plan for salvation. John 3:16 describes how God loved the world so much that he gave his only Son, Jesus, so that all who believe in him will have eternal life rather than perish. John 12:27-28 recounts Jesus expressing troubled feelings about his coming crucifixion but submitting to God's will, and a voice from heaven affirming that God will be glorified through this event.
This document contains excerpts from the Bible discussing faith and the future. Hebrews 13 encourages having faith in God rather than fearing people. Hebrews 12 says to run the race of life with endurance, fixing eyes on Jesus. James 4 warns that people should not presume what tomorrow will bring and instead say "if the Lord wills." Revelation 21 describes God making all things new and wiping away tears in heaven. Philippians 3 says to forget the past and press on toward perfection through Christ.
This document summarizes key points from 2 Peter 1:1-11 about responding to God's promises. It discusses how:
God has given us everything we need through His power to live godly lives and receive great promises. These promises allow us to share in God's divine nature. We are called to make every effort to respond to God's promises through faith and growing in excellence, knowledge, self-control, godliness, love and more. Responding to God's promises leads to hope, growth, and being chosen for God's eternal kingdom.
The document discusses the results of a study on the effects of exercise on memory and thinking abilities in older adults. The study found that regular exercise can help reduce the decline in thinking abilities that often occurs with age. Older adults who exercised regularly performed better on cognitive tests and brain scans showed they had greater activity in important areas for memory and learning compared to less active peers.
The document discusses biblical wisdom from Proverbs regarding handling money. It notes that God owns everything and gives people the ability to earn wealth. It advises planning, being patient in the money process, and following principles like honoring God, being generous, and avoiding deceitful ways of obtaining money. The main points are to plan financially, be patient in the process of earning and achieving money goals, and follow biblical principles for responsible money management.

This document discusses the ideas of strength and honour. Strength refers to personal qualities while honour refers to respect in battle. It provides biblical sources that discuss drawing strength from God, his word, and remaining in him. It notes examples from the Bible where people were not alone even in difficult times and encourages remembering that God loves us. It concludes by discussing showing honour to others.
The document discusses authority in God's kingdom and how Christians should respond to authority. It notes that authority was God's idea and should be exercised as a servant who will give an account. Believers should live under authority prayerfully, obediently, and with a respectful heart. At home, children should honor their parents, and beyond home, how one exercises and responds to authority is part of their Christian testimony and obedience to God.
‘Towers’, ‘tragedy’ and even ‘terrorism’ are often words used to describe relationships between different nations and people groups. Is it really possible for diverse people to live together in unity?
The document discusses how words originate from the heart and can have powerful effects. It notes that words guided by wisdom promote life but uncontrolled words can spread evil like fire. While the tongue is small, it can steer one's life and corrupt the whole body. Words have the power to praise God and curse people, so we must be careful. Ultimately, words spoken in truth and moderation can bring healing and life to communities.
Are you a good communicator? Are you able to put into words what is in your heart and able to understand what others are saying? Let’s see if the book of Proverbs can help us improve our communication.
2 Peter 3: Because some scriptures are hard to understand and some will force them to say things God never intended, Peter warns us to take care.

A375 Example Taste the taste of the Lord, the taste of the Lord The taste of...franktsao4
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
