    based on 7 ratings
     | 2,946 views

    We have been purchased by the blood of Christ. We have been found to be useful by the King. Running away from God is not fullfiling the purpose that we have been called. Remember the slave tag, "If I should escape seize me and send me back to my master."

    Contributed by Justin Steckbauer on Sep 25, 2023
     | 1,650 views

    We want to understand as Christians that Jesus Christ fundamentally has authority over our lives. What does authority mean? Authority is power, control, influence. My life is not my own, my life belongs to God. God has authority over me.

    In order to feel fully at home in the church, we begin with praying for one another, we learn both to receive and to give to one another, and we abandon top-down thinking.

    Isn’t it astounding, the power of the group? Isn’t it amazing that an otherwise normal, there, healthy, together person can be in a group and feel so wrong? Have you ever been in a group that was sending out such negative vibes that you just wanted to get out of there? Somehow you even felt ashamed ...read more

    based on 4 ratings
     | 9,189 views

    So are we dead men walking? Is it a possibility that the Spirit of God has left us? Are we more sensitive to people than the Holy Spirit? Do we really Love God above everything else in life? If so, is it evident (genuinely) to folks around us?

    Opening illustration: A popular movie several years ago, based on real events, gave an interesting angle on this.
