    Flesh And Spirit And Cleverness For The Gospel

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Jul 7, 2013
     | 5,470 views

    We must listen to the Spirit of God rather than our weak minds and wills so that we can bear the fruits of the Spirit and with cleverness spread God's kingdom.

    Today’s Scripture readings offer a number of challenges and difficulties to the Christian. On the face of it, it appears that Jesus is applauding a dishonest steward’s actions in cheating his employer. Worse, He seems to be telling His disciples that the ends justify the means. Of ...read more

    An indepth look at what it means to be the body of Christ. If He is the head of the body, the foundation of the kingdom, then we are simply body parts, cells, bricks. What does it mean to be an armpit?

    Jesus gave Peter the keys to the kingdom. In similar fashion, Jesus grants me the joy of sharing the Gospel as He desires, guides and allows. You have the same opportunity.

    What exactly do you believe about Jesus? In my seminary days, our first semester in Systematic Theology dealt with that question. Our professor described Jesus as “the proleptic, salvific, hidden appearance of the eschatological kingdom of God”. Did you get that? Take notes; there might be a test ...read more
