knowledge matters
- "My people perish for lack of knowledge."
- "We have been given everything for life and godliness through the knowledge of him."
- "Anyone who does not do [exhibit in his life] these things, does not know that his sins have been forgiven."
- "How can they know unless someone goes to tell them. How can they go unless they are sent."
STUDIES
- Ephesians, Romans, ___________, and __________ all lay out the gospel and then talk about 'behavior' at the end of the book saying, now that you know that God has freely given you, you should not let yourself forget, give freely to others, don't cloud your mind, etc etc. All of the do's are in the context of what you've already been given! BECAUSE OF WHAT HE GAVE YOU, YOU CAN NOW DO LIFE DIFFERENTLY!
- summary of Ephesians:
- Sit. Walk. Stand. (Watchman Nee has a beautiful simple study of Ephesians) Knowing that you are seated as a co-heir with Christ and that your work is finished with Christ's, you are able to walk out a life in which God can bless others through you, and as you grow, you are able to stand against your adversary who wants to take you out!
