Baptism is burying the old life in the watery grave and arising a new body in Christ. We should encourage instead of discouraging one that wants to be baptised and surround them in love as Christ did us whe we accepted Him.
-
One body,one Spirit, one hope, one Lord, one faith, one baptism, one God and Father of all. most compelling is one hope that we will have an eternal home with our Lord and Father if we live our lives that is pleasing to the Lord and give Him all the glory and honor.

Keeping unity is a tough job because it is hard to please everyone so we should we should please our Lord and Savior and not man.
-
Completely humble and gentle, be patient, bearing with one another in love. Love is the easiest and also the hardest.
-
The church to me is not a building but the people that makes it up. We all come from different walks of life but when we worship our Lord and Savior together we are the church. We should welcome all into worship with us as God wants us to do with him.
-
His power is at work within us. immeasurably more. we don't try to grasp all that is set before us. His glory is fullfilled when we honor and give Him all the glory.

Throught their union with the exallted Christ, christians have been made beneficiaries of every spiritual blessings that belongs to and comes from the heavenly realm.

Today so many believers close their eyes of their hearts because they don't want to let go of worldly things. The raising of Jesus from the dead.
-
The church is the fulness of Christ probably in the sense that it is filled by him who fills all things.

In verse 19 Paul plies term upon term to emphazie that the extraordinary divine force by which Jesus Christ was raised in verse 20 is the same power at work in and throught believers. The right hand is the symbolic place of highest honor and authority. IN his day many people believed not only in the existence of angels and demons, but also in that of other beings. Under his feet- Psalms 8:5-6 emphasizes the destiny of man, and Hebrew 2:6-9 shows that ultimately it is the Son of Man who rules over everything.

Midian was subdued before Israel and the land had forty years of peace during Gideon's lifetime.

Praise God! My name is Dennis Hatlestad and I live in Oklahoma. This is my first on-line study and I really enjoyed it and looking for the next one to start. I'm involved in a prison ministry and we go three different prisons a month and I also do a jail ministry here at the county jail and I really enjoy doing all these things for the Lord and I have seen many miracles happen to inmates that has changed their lives. It's really wonderful to see one that you have worked with accept the Lord and are baptized. The name of our group is "Consumed" which is based on Hebrew 12:29, for our " God is a consuming fire." I pray that I will hear from some you and may God bless us.

When we look for something other than Christ we commit adultery. when we our eyes on Jesus and we do fall He is quick to forgive if we ask for it. television, doing secular things instead of doing what we should be. books instead of the bible.

Ephod- A kind of Hebrew priestly vestment, that was worn by the high priest. anything that would cause someone to worship a false idol.
-
Gideon asked each man to give a earring that came from their plunder. I don't think it was wrong that Gideon accepted the gold. When Gideon took the gold and turned it in to something that the people started to worship.
-
Gideon Said that the Lord is the only king. By accepting the kingship would be going against the Lord. Israel was attracted by the Baals of Canaan instead of the kingship of the Lord.
-
They were both to honor our Lord and Savior by partaking of the bread and juice to symbolize the body and blood that was shed for us. Sharing with others in fellowship is very important.
-
Jesus died so we can live. Jesus suffered the sacrifice that we couldn't have done ourselves. the joy is that if believe in him we will have eternal life in him.

It is such a special time when we partake in the Lord's Supper and aren't we blessed to be able to partake without having to worry about being persecuted for it. We should examine our hearts when we partake. we can partake until our time on earth is done then we will be in the great banquet room of Lord. Omie,it says we should make a joyful noise unto the Lord.
-
By separating into three companies it looks like there is more warriors then there is. By blowing the trumpets and smashing the jars it cause a lot of commotion among the enemies for they were not ready for such a strategy. The Lord was with Gideon and that is why Gideon was successful.

Lion of Judah is a Messanic title taken from Genesis 49: 8-10 where Judah is named a lion's cub and promised the right to rule until he comes to whom it belongs and the root of David looks forward to the ideal king in the line of David. Jesus came the first time to earth as a Lamb but His next coming is going to be like a roaring lion.
-
Gideon asked the men of Ephraim to come down and seize the waters of Jordan. They were angry with Gideon that he didn't include them in the attack. Their angry was subsided when Gideon answered with a gentle answer.like we are to do.

The Lamb is Jesus Christ. Jesus is standing now after being slain. eyes-represents Jesus who sees all things. #7 represents the prefect number and completeness. The Lamb is Jesus Christ who is all perfect and complete. He overcame death and is now reining in heaven and He is ALIVE! Praise God!

Gideon was avenging the deaths of his brothers. He was justified in doing so. Vengence is the Lord's and we are not to get even.
