Spiritual Purity!


‘Spiritual Purity.’
1 Corinthians 12:1-3.
a) 1 Corinthians 12:1. Apostle Paul wanted the Corinthian Church to be free from their ignorance about the Holy Spirit and His Gifts. Their background was really deep in evil spirits and Paul did not want these influences to harm the Church.
b) 1 Corinthians 12:2. As non-believers the Corinthians were “led” by their spirits into idolatrous religion. We always need to test people who claim to be “led”. The test is the Truth of God’s Word in context.
c) 1 Corinthians 12:3. No person speaking by the Holy Spirit can say that Jesus Christ is anathema and no one can say that Jesus is Lord but by the Holy Spirit.

‘Our Most Important Life Choice.’
a) Joshua 23:3. We have seen all that the Lord has done for us and how even sometimes He has fought for us.
b) Joshua 23:16. We are not to violate the Covenant that the Lord has made with us.
c) Joshua 24:15. The important life choice is the choice to serve the Lord.
d) John 3:18. Before we serve Him we need to Believe in Him.
(This Second one reminds me of My Most Important Life Choice)
