[Q1. Dealing with Your Fears]

we are not supposed to be in fear ,we are to be of sound mind and love

Jesus tells us softly in our heart "do not fear" because we lack often the faith

to realize that we can not be destroyed , we pray to a living arisen Christ Jesus who loves us and hears us

when he gave the instructions he was telling us to have FAITH

were not to fear because fear is the opposite of having Faith

Jesus defeats evil and no evil can befall a Child of God that is watched over vigilantly by a all seeing God

God wants us to fear not .

[Q1. Antichrists]

(1 John 2:18) What is this antichrist that John expects to come? What is the difference between the antichrist and antichrists in the church John is writing to? In what ways do we see the spirit of antichrist at work in our day?

I think the anti Christ that John expects to come ,will have obvious super natural powers to deceive, so much so that he will some how broker a false peace between the nation of Israel and Islam , and he may even manage to get the Islamic leaders to give up their third most holiest site so Israel will be able to build their temple , now Im sure the Islamic leaders will have to swallow hard to go along with that but some how the anti Christ assures them that he will turn on Israel and literally annihilate Israel and their temple forever the one to come has phenomenal powers over the Nations leaders and does the unimaginable

the difference Im not real sure , I am not getting or grasping all the difference

we see the spirit of the anti Christ working when we see falsification and hostilities toward God's sovereign word , we see it when we see people try to exalt them selves rather than exalting God .

[Q2. The Anointing]

the One who confirms us with you in Christ, and has anointed us, is God;

The ministry of the Holy Spirit is the continuation of the ministry of Jesus Christ.

[Q4. Head Over All Things for the Church]

What does it mean for us Christians that Christ is "head over everything for the church"? What does this say about the Church's power? Just as the natural body cannot live nor operate without the head, its the same with the Church. Jesus "heads-up", rules, and guides the Church today.! The head is where the mind is located (we are to have the mind of Christ) The true church of Christ must rely and be guided by the head, which is Jesus, Himself! I'm sure everyone reading this has at one time, or another, stepped out into something without seeking the guidance of the Lord; and needless to say, learned the hard way, that we need to seek God in our decisions. The same is true for God's "House", the Church. It must abide in Him to fullfill it's mission, and seek Him in prayer to complete it. The power bestowed by our Lord upon the Church has been neglected, in some way's, down through the years. (forgive me, if you don't agree) We have allowed the world to convince us that we need to be more like them, to win the lost, forgetting that we are a "called out people". I look forward to the day when God's Church realize's who she is, and what she is capable of, through Him!

A BIG AMEN TO THAT JUANITA , and sending a Big Hug to u also

[Q3. Purchased]

'You are not your own, you were bought with a price'. This principle should be applied by us, the disciples, by honoring God with our bodies. Paul said in I Cor. 6:18: 'Flee from sexual immorality. All other sins a man commits are outside his body, but he who sins sexually sins against his own body.

It is God's will first and foremost that needs to be obeyed in our lives, since now God owns us - let Him be our Master and let us not again become slaves of men and of our own lustful desires.

Goood Post

since we are bought with the precious blood of our savior Jesus Christ ,we should not live in sin or in slavery to sin

[Q3. Sorrow with Joy]

This verse "This is my blood of the covenant, which is pored out for many for the forgivness of sin" means alot to me. I am sad to think I caused Christ so much pain & humulation but thrilled to think I was that precious He died for me!!

Q3. Why should the words, "This is my blood of the covenant, which is poured out for many for the forgiveness of sins" (Matthew 26:28) fill us with sorrow? Why should they fill us with joy?

It should fill us with Joy because what a total act of perfect love and he sacrificed for us all . Jesus is LOVE

[Q3. I Am the Resurrection and the Life]

I believe the I AM means that Jesus is the True vine , the true religion because religion means to bind back to the source of God, and Jesus had spoken and told the disciples some more things also ( you are already clean because of the word which I have spoken to you) 15:3,

abide in Christ Jesus
