Chapter 11 MANAGE YOUR MOTIVES | Commands of Christ

https://commandsofchrist.wordpress.com/2009/12/09/chapter-11-manage-your-motives

Skip to search - Accesskey = s. Chapter 11 MANAGE YOUR MOTIVES. By admin on December 9, 2009. The irony of this command is not lost on the critics of Christianity. They accuse Jesus of contradicting himself here, because he had just commanded us to let our light shine so that people may see. Our good works, [23]. Glorified. God does not share the glory with anyone not even us. So if we do good works in order to be recognized then we have placed ourselves in competition with God. Benefit of the deed.

Skip to search - Accesskey = s. Chapter 16 SUPPLICATE IN SECRECY. By admin on December 4, 2009. Quite a few of our Lord’s commands have to do with prayer. This is an indicator for us of how important keeping in contact with God is for our spiritual life. Obviously God does not need us to pray to him. He needs nothing; he is totally self-sufficient. That means that the need must be ours. It seems that Christ commanded us to pray away from others so that we could avoid the temptation to pray so that others...

Skip to search - Accesskey = s. Chapter 12 GO BEYOND THE BASICS. By admin on December 8, 2009. NAU Luke 6:31 “Treat others the same way you want them to treat you. The Golden rule is golden because it helps to sum up what Jesus requires of his followers. As our king, he demands that we treat our fellow human beings with a radical fairness. He makes the standard. Of this fairness what we would hope for if the shoe was on the other foot. This goes beyond the basics of personal politics. The kinds of insigh...

Without this commitment to radical change, our repentance is just hollow words. Without the change, we are still. But we need to consider this advice carefully. Jesus is saying that there are some things about us that are keeping us on the wrong path the path heading to destruction. 3 have sold all. 10 What Parables did...
