  2. It is very important to be aware of Satan's existence because he the enemy of our soul. The verse taught us how dangerous devil is to our life. The teaching is very important because it keeps us alive and awareness of Satan devices.
  3. According to the verse I will cast all my fear on Jesus Christ. The to cast all my fear on Him is because He cares for me. I will do that through prayers. I will apply the vese's instruction in my life humble myself, trust Him and pray constantly because I know Him care.
  4. The acts of humility that appropriate for church leader is for God's leaders realised that all they have is a gift from God and the people are a trust from God and the humility under the mighty hand of God so that God Himself will lift us up in due season. Discerning a person's humility before putting him or her in a place of leadership in the church is through prayers. If we failed to prayers we be expecting anything.
  5. The best way to keep elders and pastors from being power mongers is being taking good care of them by paying good salary and other incentives and monitor their activities. The danger in limiting the pastor's authority will result into unnecessary excuses by not been responsible and reliable on their duties. Testing before bestowing authority is very difficult because human being are very difficult to understand. The only way is committing all things to God in prayers and watch.
  6. What's wrong with the common practice in the churches of twisting a person's arm as church leader is manipulated by guilt or duty because it's not willingly service. It caused the church a great damage because there will less interest depreciating the growth of the church spiritually, physically and morally. Its will produce irresponsible and unreliable leaders.

  13. Willingness to die is a sign of total commitment to Jesus Christ and faithfulness to our creator. If we aren't willing to die for Jesus Christ it's simply mean we are denying Jesus Christ as our Lord and saviour, its have many things to do with our commitment and our faithful creator because we deny Him .
  14. Persecution is a sign of seeing Jesus Christ shinning in you but if not people view we are not genuine Christian because there's not reflecting or shining Christ in us. Persecution makes us happy because there's a great reward waiting us in heaven.
  15. Being a partaker or sharer of our Lord Jesus Christ's sufferings, its gives us a great honour and joy of standing alongside of my Lord and saviour Jesus Christ in suffering.
  16. The danger of trying to avoid persecution and suffering for christ is dead spiritually and end in eternal hell. No I have not and cannot be detracted by any persecution by His grace and mercy. Yes, I knew many Christians who forsaken the faith in Jesus Christ because of impatient for God to answer their prayers as they are passing through some challenges.

  21. It say their no mature self-worth because we are to see ourselves as servants of others and steward of God's property. Glory be unto God for the gifts of knowledge, understanding and wisdom and I am using them for the glory of God through empowerment of Holy Spirit.
  22. Non Christians don't like the idea of giving an account because it is not a popular topic. Christians like it because it part of the gospel of Jesus Christ. The realization that we must give an account of our actions inspired in us to warning of the judgment and the consequences. As Christians, we should have the attitude that please God such as life of clear mind and self-control.
  23. The non Christian try to get us to sin because we judging them and try to shame us into sin with them. We are tempted because of culture and advertising that drives us. We can resist this temptation by focus our lives on Christ and the words of God and ignored the worldly things.
  24. Arm yourself with the same attitude as Christ had means we must have a stake in His suffering by do away from sin and to live the rest of our for the Will of God. This attitude is a challenged and an adventure therefore, help keep us from sin again. The attitude we are talking about is the attitude of living for the Will of God and plans forever.
  25. It say their no mature self-worth because we are to see ourselves as servants of others and steward of God's property. Glory be unto God for the gifts of knowledge, understanding and wisdom and I am using them for the glory of God through empowerment of Holy Spirit.
