You KNOW what to DO… GO DO IT!!!

It’s not more knowledge you need.
All you require is the seed.
Then in faith step up, step out;
No more fear, and no more doubt.
Go do it!

Comment: Fruit Finding vs. Branch Burning

Published by reflectionsintheword

We should judge (inspect fruit) to preserve and protect the church. This is of crucial importance today, because of the plethora of false teachers. We must equip ourselves through study of the Word of God to discern the truth so that we ourselves are not lead astray AND so that we can help others to stay in line with God. We judge (inspect fruit) therefore, not out of self-righteousness, but out of Humility (by using God’s scales not ours) and Love (we bear each other’s burdens).

Redemption (Part 4): Knowledge [of God] is Power

Published by reflectionsintheword

We CAN overcome sin by continually submitting our will to God’s authority, by studying, memorizing and frequently contemplating God’s Word, so that it can transform us by replacing our human desires with Godly desires. Then God’s will and God’s plan will consummate in us to produce righteousness to the Glory of God.

Redemption (Part 3): Disobedience Disables

Published by reflectionsintheword

If we are ever to live victorious Christian lives, we must first seriously seek to live obedient sacrificial lives. It’s not more ‘churching’, it’s not louder singing, it’s not even better preaching that’s going to transform us. We will be transformed when we “offer ourselves as living sacrifices” to God (Romans 12:1-2). When we sacrifice our will to live in obedience to His will.
