Thursday, March 28

So just what kind of knowledge are we supposed to add to our faith and virtue?  The Hebrew writer tells us we are supposed to grow past just elementary knowledge.

 Therefore, leaving the discussion of the elementary principles of Christ, let us go on to perfection, not laying again the foundation of repentance from dead works and of faith toward God, of the doctrine of baptisms, of laying on of hands, of resurrection of the dead, and of eternal judgment. And this we will[a] do if God permits.

Now that you are a Christian, what kinds of things should you be learning?  Today's assignment is to find two passages to share with the group that answer that question.

Learning to walk in the Spirit...Galatians 5:16-24 "But I say, walk by the Spirit, and you will not gratify the desires of the flesh....vs.22 "But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, self-control; against such things there is no law.

Learning to be a living sacrifice...Romans12:1-2 " I appeal to you therefore, brothers, by the mercies of God, to present your bodies as a living sacrifice, holy and acceptable to God, which is your spiritual worship. Do not be conformed to this world, but transformed by the renewal of your mind, that by testing you may discern what is the will of God, what is good and acceptable and perfect."
