The
Majority Know Another Jesus The
church at Corinth gladly tolerated fools who taught another Jesus and different
gospel, Paul said (cf. 2 Cor. 11:4, 19).
It is possible for one to read the trifling literature of fools and
possess a completely false view of Jesus. Read the Gospels for your self and see what He really did do and teach. Here’s a
start with applications from the Gospels themselves that show the stark
differences between what most think Jesus taught and what He really did teach!
Verses are presented that deal with: (5) those who TELL YOU THAT YOU CANNOT UNDERSTAND
God’s word are liars…(8) QUIT SAYING YOU UNDERSTAND Christ’s word
when you don’t accept and do it when you hear it…
What You
Can And Will Do In Christ This brief study should offer assuramce to Christians that their efforts to serve God
faithfully are attainable, as well as being greatly aided by others' prayers on
their behalf. What one can and will do by remaining faithful in Christ is
declared through the words of Paul's prayer for the church at Colossae in Col.
1:9-12. Here are the key thoughts: A. Be filled with
knowledge, all wisdom and spiritual UNDERSTANDING. B. Walk worthy,
fully pleasing Him, being fruitful in every good work and increasing in the
knowledge of God. C. Strengthened for attaining all steadfastness and patience,
with Joy. D. Joyously giving thanks to the Father. Following is a "Check
Your Spiritual Growth With Self-Test Questions"
giving further emphasis to our growth and development into mature children of
God. The stated "goal" of our efforts is seen in Philippians
1:10-11.
The
Conduct God Expects From Our Members Read this article and it should help
you to better understand the "UNITY of the
Spirit" in the bond of peace" (Eph. 4:1-3; Col.
3:12-14). Love is stated said to be the
"bond of perfectness" or "the
PERFECT bond of UNITY." These 7 Virtues are discussed as being
necessary for each member of the local church: Lowliness (Humility), Meekness
(Gentleness), Longsuffering (Patience), Forebearing
(Showing Tolerance), Tender Mercies (Heart of Compassion), Kindness and Forgiving one another. Understanding these in this context
answers such important questions as: Whom can I talk to?,
When do I go to another?, Can I speak publicly in rebuking to thus maintain
this unity?, What would a refusal to listen indicate? And, What
happens to one who does not forgive if one repents?
Why We
Rejoice With One Another God delights over His people to do them good (De. 28:63).
The Psalmist said, “Light is sown for the righteous, and gladness
for the upright in heart” (Ps. 97:11). This light and joy is
for the righteous and UPRIIGHT OF HEART! We are commanded to rejoice with those who
rejoice, and to weep with those who weep, being of the same mind one toward
another (Rom. 12:15-16). Our being sorrowful when one is arrogant and suffers
is different from sharing joy and sorrow as Paul spoke of. If one of us suffers
because we remain arrogant and obstinate then our tears will be the tears of
Jeremiah if we love them (cf. Jer. 13:17). However, you will find such “rejoice
with” applications in this article as (1) I Can Rejoice With One Who Is Faithful
Whom I Know God Delights Over To Do Good; (2) I Can’t Rejoice With Another When
I See The Vanity Of The World; (3) I Can Rejoice With One Who Rejoice In Truth;
(4) I Can Rejoice With One Who Wants God’s Instruction, Counsel, And Eye Upon
Them.
A
Consideration of I Cor. 14:34-35
Women’s conduct in both learning and teaching. The role of women in
the church is of such a nature that they are to learn in quietness with all
submission. They must not teach, nor USURP
AUTHORITY OVER the man, but be in quietness ( I
Tim. 2:11-12).The necessity of this role prompted the following statement to
the church at Corinth: "Let your women keep silence in the churches: for
it is not permitted unto them to speak; but they are commanded to be under
obedience, as also saith the law. [35] And if they
will learn any thing, let them ask their husbands at home: for it is a shame
for women to speak in the church."
I Cor. 14:34-35
