Lesson 1: The Purpose Of Our Worship Of God The word "must", according to Webster, expresses "an obligation, a requirement, a necessity, a certainty, and something that must be done". When "must" is used it means that it is not optional. Here the word "must" is expressing that in spirit and in truth is the only way to acceptably worship God. God seeks true worshippers, and He identifies them as those who "worship Him in spirit and in truth". Worshipping God in spirit and in truth is a serious matter which must not be taken lightly. If we have any regard for our own souls, we will want to make sure we are worshipping God in spirit and in truth. Since God is the object of our worship, He and He alone has the right to determine how we are to worship Him. We read in Jeremiah 10:23, "O Lord, I know that the way of man is not in himself, it is not in man who walks to direct his own steps." We are not granted the option of directing our own ways in religion. God is the One who we look to for guidance and direction in our lives.

How Can I Keep Myself Pure? Close friends may become involved in immorality, impurity, sensuality, hatred, jealousy, drunkenness, carousing and things like these. So you will have no doubt in your mind about God's attitude toward these, study Gal. 5:17-21, where Paul says that those who practice such things shall not inherit the kingdom of God. If there is any question about what is right and what is wrong, study God's word, the Bible, and ask questions. Do not be lead blindly into an action that could jeopardize your eternal salvation. A second reason for disobedience to God's will is a lack of strength. Some, although having adequate knowledge of the scriptures, lack the strength to act in accord with their convictions.

Pope Offers Catholics Time Out Of Purgatory By Y2K Indulgences We are for people giving up their sins, but for more than a day (Col 3:5-10). However, when you read the Bible "from cover to cover" you will never read of a thing called "indulgences."

Again, we submit that nowhere in God's inspired word will one find the doctrine that says people leave this world and enter purgatory to cleanse themselves before they get to heaven.

These people in the above scripture seemed to be honest, but they were honestly mistaken. Apparently they were good people, because they had "done many wonderful works". But they had not done the will of the Father which is in heaven. Man generally wants to do things his way and doesn't really care what God thinks. We learn from the above scripture, that we don't go to heaven by doing the will of men, or by doing what we think is right. The only way we can go to heaven is by doing the will of the Father, and that will is found right in our Bibles. Do we really know what the will of the Father is so that we can be sure of going to heaven? This is too important a matter to assume that we do or to take someone else's word for it.

Lesson 17: Baptized Into Christ 1) Ephesians 1:3 says, "Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us with every spiritual blessing in heavenly places in Christ." This verse tells us that every spiritual blessing is located in Christ. Only those who are in Christ can enjoy these spiritual blessings. Since this verse says that every spiritual blessing is in Christ, then there can be no spiritual blessings for those who are outside of Christ. If you have not been baptized into Christ, you are still outside of Christ, and you are not entitled to any spiritual blessings. The Lord arranged it that way and no man has the right to change it. 2) Romans 8:1 says, "There ...

Gambling and the Bible Recently in a southern city a young man was canvassing the community selling chances on $25.00 to be given away by local church of which the boy was a member. After carefully learning from the youngster the facts, one of his contacts asked him, "Isn't that gambling?" The reply was, "Not if I do it for the church". It is a modern tragedy that some religious organizations resort to methods of gambling in order to raise money for their operations. Here a boy was being taught by a religious group to feel that a thing wrong in itself was all right if done in the interest of his church.

Who Do You Think Jesus Is? So we begin this lesson by asking you the reader,"Who do you think Jesus is"? Jesus (God the son) has existed from eternity with God the Father, and God the Holy Spirit. John 1:1,14 says, "In the beginning was the Word (Jesus) and the Word was with God and the Word was God. He was in the beginning with God...and the Word became flesh, and dwelt among us, and we beheld His glory." Jesus made reference to his pre-earth existence, "Father, glorify Me with the glory I had with thee before the world was" (John 17:5). Right now Jesus is in heaven with the Father just as He was before creation. No scripture gives us a clearer picture of who Jesus is than Phil 2:6, "Although Jesus existed in the form of God, he did not regard equality with God a thing to be grasped, but emptied himself, taking the form of a bond-servant, and being made in the likeness of men. And being found in the appearance as a man, He humbled himself by becoming obedient to the point of death, even death on a cross. ... ... https://www.bible.ca/D-Who-Is-Jesus.htm
