  1. I tried to reply to Lion of Grace - but it said I had reached my quota for positive feedback.or something to that effect :) I thought wish I always used my quota for positive feedback in my daily life! Not exactly the common problem for us believers...

    I like what Lion of Grace said - because Jesus said that by our love shall all men know that we have love one to another.

    So it must be one of the reasons why we start with each other. The world is looking for something that works - a real love - in the midst of

    real problems. We should be an oasis, not a desert.

  2. Q4. (5:21) Why do some Christians resist accepting Paul’s warning in 5:21 and 1 Corinthians 6:9-11? What statement might these Christians desire to substitute for Paul’s warning if they could reword the Scripture?

    Because they have chose to live for themselves and not for Christ.

    Perhaps they would add on to verse 11, unless you believe on Christ.

    Too bad they don't think more about what it means to believe on Christ - that He took our sins, so we should not be comfortable with them.

  3. Amen, Solange!

    It is great to be able to study with people from all over the world.

    My answer to this question in Galatians:Q1. (Galatians 6:1-5) What does Paul mean, “caught in a sin”?

    When our sin is evident.

    What would restoration of a such brother or sister look like in his or her life?

    Restoration should include repentance, and also understanding we are in a spiritual war. Restoration should include Truth, love and acceptance from those who restore us. We are not restored if our brothers say only, "Well, we are all human' and pretend sin doesn't matter. Restoration should include a hatred for sin but an intense love for God and for each other.

    Who should restore this person?

    Someone that knows that they are only human but with God's power inside. We should come alongside of each other in our journeys to help each other take the next step.

    In what spirit should it be done?

    in meekness

    What is the result of trying to restore a person without humility?

    Falling into sin

  4. I think we grow weary because of human nature - and sometimes not reaping - but God's promise in Paul is that we will reap if we do not give up.

    That last one is a good question. The only good answer I have is because the Bible says, "Especially to those who are of the household of faith - do good when opportunity arises " (my paraphrase)
