     | 4,634 views

    Our attitudes and understanding of what makes a good marriage and of the roles of husband and wife may or may not be right. We have come to accept the attitudes of our culture without critically examining them in light of Scripture.

    This lesson explores what scripture teaches us regarding being led by the Holy Spirit and compares what the Bible says to some common beliefs as to how the Spirit leads God's people.

    Paul epitomizes the ideal scriptural mailman as it can be said, "Neither rain, nor sleet, nor dark of night can keep this courageous courier from the swift completion of his appointed task."

    Paul - The Ideal Mailman (Acts 28) Mitchell Kendall engraved this famous saying on the New York City post office, taken from Herodutus about the diligence of the Persian mailmen during the heat of their battles with the Greeks in 500 B.C.

    We live in a generation that tells us to “follow your heart”, yet Scripture tells us the heart is deceitful, prone to wander, and constantly pulled between the sinful nature and the work of the Holy Spirit.

    The guesses of the people about Jesus’ identity give us clues about their perception of His character. Jesus used their grasp of His similarity to John the Baptist, Elijah, and Jeremiah to focus on the authority to bind and loose. They, and He, bound rel

    When Jesus gives His disciples the authority to "Heal the sick, raise the dead," in Matthew 10:8 I'm not sure that playing loud music is what He had in mind. But the "wailing out the truth" part certainly was.
