(Through this Second one I rejoice in that I know The True God And Eternal Life)
-----------------
Chris.
Jesus Christ is both the Son of God and God the Son. He was not merely a prophet or a good man. Jesus Christ is in no way secondary to God the Father or God the Holy Spirit, He is equal with them making the Triune God.

All Things!


‘All Things,’
1 Corinthians 6:12.
a) Are lawful for us.
b) Are not helpful to us.

i) Romans 5:20. Where sin increased Grace increased all the more.
j) Romans 5:21. Sin reigned in death, so also Grace might reign through Righteousness to bring Eternal Life through Jesus Christ our Lord.
(Through this Second one I understand What Happened Because Of Adam)
---------------
Chris.
God is a God Who makes things evident so that to Believe in Him and to continue in Faith are both possibilities. The ways in which God makes things evident is not exclusively visible or natural but is always spiritual and supernatural. Just as the Presence of God is usually first spiritually discerned.

We Have Joy In God!


‘We Have Joy In God.’
Romans 5:1-11.

b) Proverbs 20:9. Who is able to say, I have made my heart clean, I am free from my sin?
c) Ecclesiastes 7:20. There is no man on earth of such righteousness that he does good and is free from sin all his days.
d) Isaiah 53:6. We all, like sheep, have gone astray, each of us has turned to his own way; and the LORD has laid on Him the iniquity of us all.

--------------
Chris.
As mature adults we find that it is impossible for us to be pure and upright in our own strength and character. We all need the Grace and Love of God to change our lives and to control our lives. Without Him we are lost.

e) 1 Corinthians 6:11. Now True Believers are:-

(This Second one reminds me that now is Action Time)
------------
Chris.
God allows bitterness to happen to us. We should not blame Satan for it. We are responsible for our lives before God. He is our Heavenly Father and has promised to look after us. If we wander in our own pernicious paths however, it may be that He allows us to have bitterness.

-----------
Chris.
In the days of the Old Testament the Temple was meant to be a clean and Holy Place. The concept was carried through into the days of Jesus when He cast the marketers out of the Temple. Today, both the individual Believer and the gathering of True Believers is God’s Holy Temple we also need to keep this Temple clean and Holy.

‘We Are And We Should Live Like.’

(This Second one teaches me who I Am And What I Should Live Like)
----------
Chris.
True Believers are sometimes defrauded. This usually happens to us from another person, even in Church, who is not a True Believer. In such cases we can take a person to court. However when the person is a True Believer such cases should be dealt with within the Church judicial system.

(Through this Second one I affirm my belief that Jesus Christ Is God The Son)
---------
Chris.
If we are True Believers we believe that Jesus Christ is God the Son. We believe in the Triune God, God the Father, God the Son and God the Holy Spirit. God is not Unitarian – He is Trinitarian. We need to avidly and clearly teach this Truth in the True Churches.

A Time Of Joyful Dedication!


‘A Time Of Joyful Dedication.’

‘Jesus Christ The Word Of God.’

b) Dwelt amongst humankind.
c) We can behold His Glory as the Only begotten Son of the Heavenly Father.

e) He is full of Truth.
(Through this Second one I affirm my Faith in Jesus Christ The Word Of God)
--------
Chris.
God’s People are supposed to be a separated people in the sense of being separated from sin. We do not partake in the sins of sinful people. Normally however we are not called to be separated from the World system but rather to live in the World system as shining lights for the Lord.

Resolving Conflicts Within The True Church!


‘Resolving Conflicts Within The True Church.’
1 Corinthians 6:1-5.
a) 1 Corinthians 6:1. It is a bold and incorrect decision to take a True Believer to a law case.

c) 1 Corinthians 6:3. The Church should know how to Judge the things that pertain to this life.
d) 1 Corinthians 6:4. Esteemed Believers within the Church should do the Judging.

(Through this Second one I discover A Certain Calling As A Leader)
-------
Chris.
Sometimes in their haste Churches and even individual Believers make decisions that are too bold, incorrect and hasty. Especially in matters of civil law we need to be very careful. If the Local Church is functioning healthily then it should be able to deal with most legal matters in a mature way.

‘Moses The Intercessor.’

g) Exodus 32:6. All God’s People joined in the idolatrous feast.
h) Exodus 32:7-8. God spoke to Moses that it was time to leave the Holy Mountain because His People had corrupted themselves. They were participating in idolatrous worship and God saw everything.

j) Exodus 32:10. What was on God’s Mind?

q) Exodus 32:22-24. Aaron lied to Moses.
r) Exodus 32:25-26. Moses separated the people on the grounds of who really was on Jehovah’s side.

(This Second one teaches me many things about Moses The Intercessor)
-----
Chris.
The Calling of God is not just a calling to go and serve in a particular place. The Calling of God does not make a Believer “more special” than another Believer. The Highest Calling of God is the Calling for us to be Consecrated to Him.

Associations Inside And Outside Church!


‘Associations Inside And Outside Church.’
1 Corinthians 5:9-13.
a) 1 Corinthians 5:9. The Church should have no Fellowship with immoral people. (This Scripture is to be further explained here by Apostle Paul)
b) 1 Corinthians 5:10. Apostle Paul makes it very clear that he is not writing about non Believers. If we are living in the World system we will meet people of the World system all the time. They are our neighbours, our work mates and fellow students. People who live in sin and only Christ can change their lives.
c) 1 Corinthians 5:11. Apostle Paul is writing about so called “brothers” in the Corinthian Church. He writes that we should not associate with, or even eat with these people, whoever they are in the Church:-
1- Immoral.
2- Greedy.
3- Idolaters.
4- Revilers – mockers.
5- Drunkards.

----
Chris.
The Lord is the One Who makes Covenant Promises with His People. The way in which Abraham could receive the Covenant was by Faith in what God had said to Him. Covenant is always something personal between a person and Jehovah God. It is made in this Dispensation through the Blood of Jesus Christ and received by Faith.

Thank you very much!

God bless you all.

We should excel in Knowledge. Sometimes Christians can be so bigoted and ignorant, especially in the area of international and strategic matters. We cling on to what we are taught as the “conservative norm” without really considering God’s Word and Principles. Let us excel in Knowledge rather than in parrot like support of a conservative political opinion.
