Before dating someone who claims to be a Christian, you need to know how they respond to all of the following questions.

1. Is Jesus the uncreated God? 2. Are Jesus, God the Father, and the Holy Spirit three coeternal persons? 3. Is Jesus fully divine and fully human? 4. Are all people born in a state of sin, inherited from Adam and Eve due to their transgression? 5. Are believers justified through faith, by the free grace of God? 6. Is the institution of marriage a lifelong covenant between one man and one woman, dissoluble only through death, abandonment, or adultery? 7. Is sexual intercourse a practice strictly for married couples?

All of these questions are either first-order matters of doctrine or would indicate how a dating relationship in particular would end up. In addition, there are questions I would ask about second- and third-order matters (limited atonement, spiritual gifts, infant baptism, etc). What additional questions you would ask would depend on your Biblical hermeneutic and how closely you would want a partner to agree, but I have made the mistake of not gauging previous partners’ doctrine.

Don't Take It Personally: A Guide to Finding Peace in Christ

Why Taking Things Personally Feels So Good It’s easy to take things personally when someone says something that sounds like an insult. At first, it might feel good to get angry or upset. It makes you feel like you have the right to be mad at someone. But in the long run, taking things personally can make you feel isolated and insecure. It’s a defense mechanism that might make you feel safe for a…

MORNING PRAYERS IN THE SPIRIT DEVOTIONAL SUMMARY BY PASTOR ADEMUWAGUN

27/11/2023

ROMANS CHAPTER 14 NLT

Today we would deal with disputable matters . Some at times distort the scriptures for their own favour.

The kingdom of God is not a matter of eating and drinking but of living a life of joy and and godliness in the Holyspirit goodness and peace. Romans 14:17.

Satan knows how to occupy believers for nothing. In Acts a number of matters were disputed and they were between judistic and Christianity; paul and Barnabass took one’s side and the disciples another side until James wrote to the church to desist from eating defiled food.

From time in memorial man has redefined what the gospel of salvation is

Holyspirit reminds us that It’s not about us but our brothers and sisters that Jesus went on the cross and died for them.

What did Paul starts with saying accept others who are weak believes.

A weaker believer is one who has Carried things in away they have been raised or taught, at times it comes from individual cultures.

Most of the things observed in church people do them out of their culture e.g screaming in church while the preacher is preaching differs. Todays church has over blown some of these things to the extent of redefining Christianity.

We shouldn’t think we know more than other believes. Paul says when we do all these things without love we only edify ourselves and there is no God in it. 1 Corinthians 13

We shouldn’t destroy another believers conscience.

We worship God for ourselves eg tithe is a principal let’s not talk bad about those who have decided to tithe. We don’t have to rub down our throats to others.

We do all things unto the Lord. Our salvation is not a competition with other believers.

We are Gods servants not another man.

Is there a place we have not got the right light of God , we seek mercy to reach that light. Let’s also be patients wit those who have not yet reached at our levels , they will get there.

People still urge about Sabbath, every day is the Lord's day. Jesus Christ is our Sabbath. Those who worship God on a special day do it to honour Him.

Paul didn’t dictate on the decision because we wouldn’t read all the scriptures.

Pride in us doesn’t let things go to the point that we want to express knowledge

Everyone of us will give an account to God. We shouldn’t be quick to see another person doing the wrong thing. As scripture is being shared we at times think of someone else and yet the scripture is directed to us. Let’s not condemn others.

Some have searched the scriptures on alcohol just to condemn others.

No matter the choice of foods we should remember the kingdom of God is not about eating and drinking but of joy, peace and godliness.

It’s better not to eat certain things if they would cause another believe to stumble.

Let’s not get to the point where we make another believe our own project. Our focus is to build each other we are not “junior Holyspirit “.

If we so worried about a brother or a sister take it to God.

2 Timothy 2: 24 A servant of the Lord must not quarrel but must be kind to everyone, be able to teach, and be patient with difficult people. NLT

What’s our focus ? Sometimes it might not just be religious things , the kingdom of God is living a life of godliness, peace and joy.

Let’s aim for harmony in the body of Christ.

Hebrews 12:1 lets drop anything and everything including the mindset that will stop us from winning this race. We need to focus on how it will add to someone else’s salvation.

We must run this race with endurance, steady, active persistence and stay on course on the race that is set before us.

We need to be aware of everything that will want to distract us.

We run this race by keeping our eyes on Jesus totally yielded to the Holyspirit.Our lives are total submission. We need to be Aligned.

Mathew 6:33. We can’t manipulate God, we follow the order He sets not us, we obey.

Well satan doesn’t work in obedience.He works in disobedience

PRAYER

Lord we thank you for the word, give us wisdom and courage to walk with you. Let the salvation story be our victory. Let’s win people over even with our character. We won’t loose the sense of Gods assignment. We ask for revelation and discernment on anything that is not of God.

Hey You join us tomorrow at 4:00 am for Morning prayers in the spirit -Pour out your spirit Lord 🔥🔥🔥

I know god will come through for me

This post will be brief and concise. There are specific areas in my life where I possess a strong aspiration for achievement. There exists a profound yearning within me to witness the growth of those particular aspects. Why am I not witnessing any progress? According to God, the timing is not right. I must be patient for the appropriate moment. He possesses knowledge of when that moment shall…

18 Simple Prayers to Offer Up for Your Marriage

In five years of marriage, my husband and I, combined, have moved six times, changed careers five times, brushed off Valentine’s Day four times, recovered from three surgeries, adopted two terrible dogs, and created one child (a boy on the way!). We’ve gone through more than most couples in our short time. Josh lost his grandfather to liver cancer, and I lost one of my dearest college friends to…

The Way People See You is Not What God Sees

It is interesting for us as Christians to notice, that on various occasions recorded in the Old and New Testament, God saw some people, in a different way, than other people saw them. In Luke 19:7-9, we can see a clear example of that. The opinion of many people then, about a tax collector Zacchaeus, was that he was a bad man, not worthy or God’s attention, because he was a cheater, and a robber…

Lighthouse When this life beats at you relentlessly & the waves come crashing in When keel of your mind seems lacking & the sails of your hope are torn When your heart feels the strained Like a little boat tossed in the storm Look to my face look to my eyes & let them be your lighthouse When this life hits you like a flood & the wall of water aims to crush When the pressures of this life increase & your strength is slipping When your dreams looked washed away Like bridges in a flash flood Take my hands & fall into my arms & let them be your quiet place When this life hits like a tornado & all your plans are thrown to the wind When changes hit you without warning & your very soul feels fractured When all that you have built seems gone Like smoke in these raging winds See my feet they are beside yours & together we will walk to the sunrise When this life shakes like an earthquake & the pillars of your life crumble & fall When those that you hold dear are gone & the hole in your heart seems infinite When you loose more than you win Know that you are cradled on my chest & our hearts will beat as one Let me be your lighthouse Let me be your lighthouse A M.Y Production 7th April 2024

My father and my mother were high school sweethearts. Whether by coincidence or because she followed him there, they ended up at the same university. After babysitting homeschooled children while they were dating and growing wary of the culture’s lies, she refused to marry my father unless he fully supported her decision to homeschool her future children. And he agreed.

They did mission work in Central America for a time, before deciding to come back to the US to raise and educate their children. Not long after having my brother, and possibly in my lifetime, my father became the object of a female coworker’s attention. She wished to travel in the same vehicle with him and sleep in the same hotel rooms, with constant flirty behavior. There were (and still are) no state laws for workplace sexual harassment where he had placed his family. However, since the trips in question would have brought them across state lines, he might have been able to lawyer up and sue her for “harassment” in federal court. But he didn’t. Instead, he showed her grace while putting up boundaries, and maintained a completely professional relation with her until she was transferred to a different department and never spoke with him again. Throughout all this, my mother remained the sole object of his affection. He did not have to resort to the nuclear option in order to prove his loyalty to her. This remains my model of both loyalty to one’s spouse and how to deal with colleagues who wish to lure the faithful into sin.

I was late for several milestones due to poisoning in the well water at our house. We do not know what metals caused this; mercury would have manifested differently and lead would have a more permanent effect. Whatever the case, I was misdiagnosed with a developmental delay, and due to the happy accident of Andrew Wakefield’s fraudulent study, I was put on the expensive therapy that is chelation. This would have been around the time my sister was born, and my brother was not even four years old, all in one of the poorest areas of the US. Dad had to pick up two jobs just to keep us afloat. Because he agreed to marry Mom under the condition that she homeschooled, her picking up a full-time job was out of the question. I have seen many men in similar situations have affairs or develop addictions. Dad did neither. He was irritable, and took it out on us maybe a few too many times, as he was never taught how to properly handle his anger. I would not, however, describe his behavior as abusive, and he has never once hit Mom. All things considered, he was under pressures far more immense than I can even conceptualize. He modeled loyalty to my mother, respect for the particulars of his marriage covenant, kindness to his family, and devotion to his calling during a period of great sanctification.

Eventually he found a job that would keep all five of us fed and allow him to pay off his remaining debts. Mom developed various spending and saving habits to make sure that we could survive if anything ever occurred to bring them back to a previous state. Various other female colleagues would make advances on him, but he spoke in a manner bordering on obsession about “the Mrs.” and how wonderful of a woman she actually was. They had arguments, some quite heated, but he took the words of Paul the Apostle seriously, “Do not let the sun go down on your anger.” He never promised not to get angry, or even to avoid an explosive temper, but when he realized the damage he had done, he worked to make things right with those whom he had wronged. He modeled regret, remorse, and justice.

Eventually, after all of us were grown, my dad “quit.” That is legally what happened, anyway. In reality, two people my mom unabashedly describes as sociopaths came to view Dad as an enemy, and backstabbed him. He decided to quit and take the stipend before they had time to mar his resume. I was a semester and some change from graduating and my brother was already completely moved out, but my sister was a few years away from completing her degree and my mom had not worked in almost twenty years. He spent a good five months looking for work, which put him in a panic, wondering how to feed and house Mom and put my sister through the rest of her time at school. He did and said some crazy things. At the end of it, he was able to relax after finding a job that was suitable for his needs. Though he was not stable during that time, his foremost concern was my mom and sister. This was the most recent major test of his quality as a husband and father, and he definitely proved himself worthy. It was fortunately a remote job, as he got it about three weeks after news stories hit of a virus spreading from Wuhan, China. He has kept the same job since, being able to eventually move himself and my mom back to their hometown, living out their lives as empty-nest gulfrats (self-described), and they would not be happier any other way.

Through his thirty-two years as a husband and twenty-seven as a father, Dad had some vices, but he modeled far more virtues. If I get married one day, I will ask his advice often, and already have in order to be the best prospective husband I could be in previous relationships. If I have children of my own, I will ask his advice often, and though my parenting style will not be the exact same, I will take what worked and apply it.

Happy Father’s Day, Dad.
