Hello Everyone,
We have said that God speaks to His people by His Spirit through His Word, prayer, circumstances, and His church to reveal Himself, His purposes and His ways.
This week I want to look at how God speaks to His people through His Word.Jesus told the new believers in John 8 that the key to them truly being His disciples was that they would “hold” (v31) to His teaching. If they would do this, He said, then they would know the truth and the truth would set them free - free to experience all that God had in mind for them.
Christian freedom - true freedom - isn’t freedom to do and be what I want to do and be, but freedom to do and become all that God wants me to do and become.If we are going to experience all that God has in mind for us as His children, we must “hold” to the teachings of Christ - teachings which are discovered in God’s Word.
I must learn to hear what God has to say to me through His Word, so that I might adjust my life to His truth. Letting God speak to me through His Word involves three things. And that is what we will be taking a look at this week.
Oh Hoe HE Loves Us!
Pastor Phil
