| 401: | Evangelistic, Small-group Home Bible Studies: Tips for success ...
It takes boldness; but if you develop the lifestyle of inviting all you come in contact with, you will overflow with visitors every week. You must invite this way in order to have ongoing success. There is no middle ground or room for any half-hearted effort! Either each Christian commits to invite like this, or don't bother starting up the program. Click to View Three Stages Of The Study Just as members are vitally important for bringing visitors, they also play a key role on the night of the study. If you have someone who says that they will come, it is best to offer to pick them up. This makes it more difficult for them to change their mind about attending. Everyone should be at the study ten minutes before it begins. Once you arrive at the home where the study is hosted, think of the study as having three stages. This will help to understand what is being accomplished. A.

Moreover, in all the synagogues with benches from the pre-destruction period as well as post-destruction synagogues of the so-called Galilean-type-and there are many-the benches line three or four walls, not just one, as at Migdal. In short, Netzer claims, the Migdal building was not a synagogue at all, but a springhouse where the city's residents came to draw water, in phase 1 as well as in phase 2. Outside the apparent springhouse, the excavators found a stepped pool. Netzer agrees this is a ritual bath, or mikveh. Indeed Netzer has located at least four mikva'ot in the area around the reputed springhouse-most appropriate since running water is usually needed for a valid mikveh. But in this case, the mikva'ot do not signify that the adjacent building is a synagogue, says Netzer." (Is It or Isn't It-A Synagogue?

Geographical boundaries of presbyteries may overlap, but in considering this presbyteries are urged to remember the law of Christ (Matt. 7:12; 3 John 9).

| 408: | Kelly, J.N.D.: Early Christian Doctrines ... The Spirit was for them the Spirit of God; like the Word, He shared the divine nature, being (in Athenagoras's words) an 'effluence' from the Deity. Although much of Justin's language about Him has a sub-personal ring, it becomes more personal when he speaks of 'the prophetic Spirit'; and there is no escaping the personal implications contained in his pleas that Plato borrowed his conception of a third One from Moses, and that the pagan custom of erecting statues of Kore at springs was inspired by the Scriptural picture of the Spirit moving upon the waters. As regards the relation of the Three, there is little to be gleaned from Justin beyond his statement that Christians venerate Christ and the Spirit in the second and the third ranks respectively. Athenagoras echoes this idea when he inveighs [a verbal attack] against labeling as atheists 'men who acknowledge God the Father, God the Son and the Holy Spirit, and declare both Their power in union and Their distinction in order'.

When the Babylonians conquered Judah in the early sixth century B.C.E. and destroyed Jerusalem, they made Gedaliah, who was from a prominent Jerusalem family, governor of Judah.

Although much of Justin's language about Him has a sub-personal ring, it becomes more personal when he speaks of 'the prophetic Spirit'; and there is no escaping the personal implications contained in his pleas that Plato borrowed his conception of a third One from Moses, and that the pagan custom of erecting statues of Kore at springs was inspired by the Scriptural picture of the Spirit moving upon the waters. As regards the relation of the Three, there is little to be gleaned from Justin beyond his statement that Christians venerate Christ and the Spirit in the second and the third ranks respectively.
