The Foundations Of The Believer
Contributed by Josiah Drawhorn, Thd. Mce on May 13, 2008 (message contributor)
Summary: Don’t just "say you are a Believer", learn to obtain the attributes of a "True Believer" on professional, relational and spiritual levels.
A. LIFE HAS ONE BASIS PROFESSION
1. The Will of God
a. Please Him in everything we do
b. Represent Him by everything we say
c. Compliment Him in everything we are
B. LIFE HAS TWO ESSENTIAL RELATIONSHIPS
1. Spiritual and Intimate
a. In relation to the Father, Son and Holy Ghost
b. In relation to Brothers and Sisters in the Lord
c. In relation to the world of lost sinners
C. LIFE HAS TWO LEVELS OF MATURITY
1. Holiness and Faithfulness
a. Character - the total quality of the person
b. Nature - the encironment of a man
c. Attitude - The posture of a man (shat he’s made of)
D. LIFE HAS A NATURAL NEED FOR GRACE
1. God’s Grace
a. God’s redemption at Christ’s expense (G.R.A.C.E.)
B. Practicing each "act" Christ endorsed.
(Obviously, the more you practice what you know the more you know what to practice... in addition the more you practice what you know the less Satan has control.)
