This second letter of Peter provides a wealth of information to help build faithfulness to God. He speaks to a people of faith and instructs them to add to their faith (2 Peter 1:5). The Bible teaches that merely having faith is not enough (James 2:14-26). Therefore, personal faith is meant to be developed. There must be some additions to foundational faith. This lesson will highlight the importance and benefits of adding the attributes Peter suggests in 2 Peter 1:5-7.
Grace is the divine influence on the heart of a man and it is reflected or expressed outwardly. In other words, it is the out-working of a divine inward influence in your heart through God’s Word and the Holy Spirit. Grace is the glory of God working in a man’s spirit.
“For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, these are sons of God.” (Romans 8:14)
Exactly how are we be led by the Holy Spirit?
Exactly how does the Holy Spirit communicate to all of us in this life?
If the Bible calls the Holy Spirit our Guide and Teacher in this life, then this means He will attempt to communicate to all of us from time to time.
Otherwise we will never be able to pick up from Him exactly what He is trying to teach us or tell us to do.
The very first thing we need to know if we want to learn how to be led by the Holy Spirit is that
We can develop a direct personal relationship with Him
Just like you already have with God and Jesus.
Here are two key verses from the apostle Paul telling us that we are allowed to have direct communication and direct fellowship with the Holy Spirit Himself:
“The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ, and the love of God, and the communion of the Holy Spirit be with you all.” (2 Corinthians 13:14)
“Therefore if there is any consolation in Christ, if any comfort of love, if any fellowship of the Spirit …” (Phillippians 2:1)
It is by grace that you have been saved and this is not of yourselves - it is the gift of God - not by works, so that no one can boast. For we are Christ's workmanship created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which He prepared in advance for us to do.

Self-examination of walking GOD’s way/ growth of confidence The word of the B...franktsao4
When we walk the spiritual path, the first thing is to be sanctified, that is, to be separated from the world. This does not mean that we have to leave this world immediately, but that although we are in the world, everything we do, what we say, is representing God. And we can always remain unbiased in God’s truth, and at the same time continue to thrive. This chapter will discuss this topic

Based on "Respectable Sins" by Jerry Bridges, this lesson deals with the foundation sin of ungodliness in our lives and what it means. Ungodliness is living your life without any thought of God. Ungodliness is an easy sin to fall prey to, and one which every Christian is guilty of to some extent.

What is a humble person in the eyes of God? What I see about the humility in the world is that I am very incompetent, and then say to myself that it is not worth it at all. People who are often humble are those who can ask me questions, but I am not sure. You can answer it, but in fact he doesn’t give you time to ask questions. This is the humility of the world. What God calls humility is the ability to obey God’s words, because if you want to obey God’s words, the first condition must be You must first take up your own cross, and then you must resist all the oppression of the world. To truly achieve this, it is impossible unless Jesus Christ lives in you. Therefore, God will not give you such a benefit for pride. This explains why God resists The proud give grace to the humble.

Do you live out your faith? What is the standard of judgment? world What is ...franktsao4
What Christians often encounter is: Others ask you, have you lived out the Christian faith? But before we define whether it has lived out, we must first know how to define what it means to live out the Christian faith. If there is a missionary who has been engaged in mission work in a wilderness for many years, and everyone knows that when he comes to the church, I think no one can say that he did not live out the Christian faith, but for church members, unless they stand on the podium or participate in many activities, everyone can say that they have lived out their faith.
But what about living out the Christian faith in the silent congregation? But why do we say that when we say that others live out the Christian faith? The most important thing is whether we can pass the test of the bible, let's not wait until we leave the world, Jesus Christ said I never knew you, then we will cry without tears

In Jude 17-23 Jude shifts from piling up examples of false teachers from the Old Testament to a series of practical exhortations that flow from apostolic instruction. He preserves for us what may well have been part of the apostolic catechism for the first generation of Christ-followers. In these instructions Jude exhorts the believer to deal with 3 different groups of people: scoffers who are "devoid of the Spirit", believers who have come under the influence of scoffers and believers who are so entrenched in false teaching that they need rescue and pose some real spiritual risk for the rescuer. In all of this Jude emphasizes Jesus' call to rescue straying sheep, leaving the 99 safely behind and pursuing the 1.

yourselves, it is the gift of God-- not by works, so that no one can boast.
• Why do we sometimes feel like we need to earn God’s Ephesians 2:8-9 (NIV)

I do not set aside the grace of God, for if righteousness could be gained
