No One
NO ONE can stand in the way of God's plans, His purposes, His callings, His schedule, His direction, His programs, His timing ... nothing in the mind of God can be thwarted.
Active Faith
Four things that we should employ as our dynamic and participatory responsibility as disciples of Christ.
The Agape Feast
The early Christian meals (Agape Feasts) included communion within the full meals. It echoed the ancient covenant banquets and was in anticipation of the Messiah Banquet
WORD-MINDED PEOPLE
Concentrating on the negatives in this world will eventually blind us to the faithfulness of God. We may soon become so aware of the evil surrounding us that we cannot see the goodness of God ...
Stay Connected
Abiding not only keeps us spiritually healthy, but abiding also impacts others as we live connected to the life-giving, life-sustaining nourishment that comes from the Vine.
YHWH is ...
In Christ, we are different, set apart, unique. We become "other" as we bear the image of our Father, who is "completely other".
"I AM" No Coincidence
The Gospel of John records seven times Jesus described Himself as "I am..." and not by coincidence.
The Sacred Name
The Name of the Lord is hallowed, holy, sacred, and should be honored, revered, and carefully guarded from misuse or abuse.
Study Notes: Abiding in the Vine
Jesus does not say, “You can do less without me.” He says, "Apart from Me, you can do nothing." A branch detached from the vine bears no fruit.
Spirit-Empowered Skill
Bezalel was the FIRST person in Scripture recorded as being filled with the Holy Spirit. Bezalel functioned as a Spirit-filled "creator" called and anointed by YHWH.
