  1. How easy it is to fall into the role that he did, selfish wanting to be in control, we must at all times keep our sights set on Jesus, constant companionship, looking always to the Saviour for tenderness and leadership. We the redeemed of Jesus are set free, and as free blood bought children of Jesus Christ let us always diplay love and forgiveness.
  2. A co worker supplies a supportive network to the believer who is at the 'coal face'. To those who are chosen to carry out this wonderful work back room support is required, in prayer and all manner of support.
  3. False teaching aims, to confuse and and destroy. False teaching belongs to the world and is accepted, but we are not of this world, we are the blood bought children of Our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ. There can be no acceptance or reconciliation to false teaching, we are never to partake from it. Why? would a child of God drink from a fountain of contamination, when we drink from the font of truth and life.
  4. A/ What are the two conditions to answered prayer in 1 John? (See also 3:22.) Obedience and God
  5. I personally believe that this hymn says it all: My hope is built on nothing less than Jesus' blood and righteousness. I dare not trust the sweetest frame, but wholly lean on Jesus' name. On Christ the solid rock I stand, all other ground is sinking sand; all other ground is sinking sand. When Darkness veils his lovely face, I rest on his unchanging grace. In every high and stormy gale, my anchor holds within the veil. His oath, his covenant, his blood supports me in the whelming flood. When all around my soul gives way, he then is all my hope and stay. When he shall come with trumpet sound, O may I then in him be found! Dressed in his righteousness alone, faultless to stand before the throne! What wonderful Love.
  6. These are the sort of questions that make one sit up and thank God for our salvation, and the redemption that we know and enjoy in Christ Jesus. How does a defeatist mentality differ from a belief that in Christ we have overcome the world? We walk by faith and not by sight What part does faith have in this overcoming? What part does unbelief have in a defeatist mentality? Walks by sight and knows little of the keeping faith in Christ Jesus.
  7. Its all about Love, we would not understand or ever have been redeemed without the love of God
  8. Fear of God is the begining of wisdom. We only know in part but when He returns will will understand complete love.
  9. What an assurance too have as we journey through this life, what comfort and power to have, with the knowledge that' greater is He that is in you than he that is in the world. Life has at times put before me obstacles that have appeared so very large and ones that I could never overcome, that's when I used to think I was alone. But now I am on the victors side, the great Lion from the tribe of Judah, my Saviour and my Lord, overcomes for me, and I can display this confidence to all, by showing courage when there is fear and love when there is hate. Man of sorrows What a name For the Son of God who came Ruin sinners to reclaim Hallelujah! What a Saviour
  10. Foundational faith is based on the true fact that Jesus Christ the man is the Son of God and is co equal with God. Matthew 1:23 tells us that He is Emmanuel, God with us, 1 Timothy 3: 16 ..Mystery of Godliness. The devil is a lair from the beginning and would want all to believe that Jesus was just a man ..one who would die and stay dead, but we know that we have a risen Lord a redeeming Saviour. Our Father God demonstrated to all that Jesus is His Son by His glorious resurrection from the dead, was the question not asked, Why? seek ye the living among the dead, He is not here but He has risen. Oh! What a Saviour
  11. The first recorded sin in the Bible was disobedience, how much satisfaction God must get from His born again child whoo acts in obedience. God is our Father and Jesus secured our place through Calvary into His family. God gets great satisfaction from our obedience to Him and His word.
  12. This type of love is something we were totally unaware of as unbelievers, I did not really care for others or their needs, my desires and needs came first. Outside my circle of needs everything came a very distant second. Graciously Jesus changed that, when He saved my soul and redeemed me , He let me see other needs and how fragile live is, how easy it is to unbalance it by misery and need, but much worse how misery multiplies in a life when no one pays attention or offers help. Thank you Lord for enabling me to recognize need, pain and misery in those who suffer, thank you Lord for your love which you have placed within me that lets me care and lets me express your love to all. A wonderful Savior is Jesus my Lord, A wonderful Savior to me; He hideth my soul in the cleft of the rock, Where rivers of pleasure I see. He hideth my soul in the cleft of the rock That shadows a dry, thirsty land; He hideth my life in the depths of His love, And covers me there with His hand, And covers me there with His hand. A wonderful Savior is Jesus my Lord, He taketh my burden away; He holdeth me up and I shall not be moved, He giveth me strength as my day. With numberless blessings each moment He crowns, And, filled with His fulness divine, I sing in my rapture, oh, glory to God, For such a Redeemer as mine! When clothed in His brightness, transported I rise To meet Him in clouds of the sky, His perfect salvation, His wonderful love, I'll shout with the millions on high.
  13. Hate and anger how quickly they grow into something so very evil. Every one knows the power of hate, we see its horrible evidence each day across our world, evil has ne respect to age or creed. Thank you Lord that you have shown us by your grace to turn hate to love and anger to reconciliation.
  14. Hate..Hate our world is in a mess because of it, death has had a free hand because of it, families and friends have destroyed each other because of it. Strangers who have never met kill each other in the name of colour or religion, but its hate that detroys us. Jesus seen this horrible emotion in us and coupled with evil it had the power to destroy. That was until our Saviour displayed to us a new emotion, the emotion of love and forgiveness, hate can grow under LOve it is finished. The world hates us because we are no longer of this world or its ways, love is everything love will overcome.
  15. The Holy Spirit lives so completely within us and our daily walk and talk with the Lord helps ud to see those who teach falsely. We cannot be fooled by false teachers, the Lord is our strength and our shield. We walk in the Light and the darkness cannot enfold us. We are strangers to the things of this world for we are the children of promise, ones who have been redeemed by the Precious blood of the Lamb.
  16. When I became a born again believer in Christ Jesus my Lord and saviour, the holy spirit took up residence in me, the old easy habits of the old man where no longer easy to do. The old man is dead a new creation lives in his place, my daily companion and friend is Jesus He keeps me out of all sorts of trouble. Oh! What a Saviour that He died for me.
  17. It shows up in an uneasy way, sin is not pleasant no matter what the veneer we place on it. When I walked in the world and outside Christ, lawlessness formed part of who I was, it acted as a protection and fitted quite well into my life at that time. But it was not a happy time. When Jesus came into my life and forgive me my sins when I was baptized I buried the old man and his ways the LOrd has shown me the beauty of His Light and what it means to walk with Him.
  18. My motivation comes from my salvation, I once was lost in the slave market of sin, no hope no rest, until I found my gracious Saviour Jesus Christ, He forgive me my past, my sin and He give to me hope, a new life. In me dwells the Holy spirit and I am directed away from sin, my purpose is to live a clean life for Jesus. What a day that will be, when my Jesus I shall see, to look upon His face the one who saved me by His Grace.
  19. The Holy Spirt convicts us of our sins and leads us to the our Saviour, when we repent of our sins and accept that Jesus Christ the Son of God died and rose again to pay the demands of a rightous God on our behalf, the Holy Spirit dwells within us. Having therefore been baptised and died with Jesus we rise in newness of a new life with Him. Our daily walk and life is new the old man is dead, the Holy Spirit becomes thre comforter and guide. Oh! What a Saviour
  20. We need those who have been gifted to build us up, but the Holy Spirit is our guide and campanion directing us through what is right and waht is wrong
  21. When I abide in Jesus, I feel so close to Him and I walk strong, I feel complete, but there are times when I get distracted and its my fault I drift and feel alone. But thats only until I lift up my head and see Him who died for me. One who is in Christ walks in love and talks with love
  22. The Holy Spirit is poured out upon every repentant beleiver, we have the Holy Spirit within us that is within our Saviour Jesus Christ. We walk by faith, we live by faith, how much of the Holy Spirit we put into practice is determine by our walk in Christ
  23. The world at present suffers from false teachers and empty doctrine, John however wants us to be aware the the Antichrist he also refres to is satan.
  24. His faith, he is such an inspiration, even when presented with the all impossible, he beleived, when asked to go the extra mile, he beleive. When trails arrive in my life it is with wonder and refreshment I can look back at an incredible promise keeping God who loves the faithful, and I am reminded that It is by faith that we are saved.
