I belong to a world wide community of believers and serve in different ways to help this group.
This group of people from all walks of life come together to worship the ONE True God. Helping each other to overcome this world in Christ love, while ministering to the needs we have in life.
We pray for each other and testify of His love towards us, we work together to share these experiences in more targeted outreaches.
I currently serve as a bible teacher, and the communications director for my group.
This is something I do for fellowship while serving Christ.
I don’t do this for ” brownie points with God” and I don’t get paid to participate.
I tell you this so you will understand what I am going to share next.
Jesus came to make us partakers of the divine nature. As long as we are united to Him by faith , sin has no more dominion over us. God reaches for the hand of faith in us to direct it to lay fast hold upon the divinity of Christ, that we may attain to perfection of character. This is how we are saved, not by means of good works or belonging to a group of do gooders.
Christ has shown us what He did to overcome the enemy-Satan, it is by the Word of God.
Only by the Word could He resist temptation. “it is written, “ He said. And unto us are given “exceeding great and precious promises: that by these we might partakers of the divine nature, having escaped the corruption that is in the world through lust.” 2 Peter 1:4
Every promise in God’s Word is ours!
By every word that proceeded out of the mouth of God, are we to live.
When assailed by temptation, don’t look at your circumstances or to your weak self, but to the power of the word.
All it’s strength is yours.
Thy word , says the psalmist “have I hid in mine heart, that I might not sin against Thee. By the word of Jesus lips have kept me from the paths of the destroyer.
My community helps me and I help them, and then we help others to overcome this world by the Word of God , this is my church.
A bible believing church that teaches and honors both the old and new testament and calls Jesus the Son of God who saves ~ this where I would look for this special kind of community. Here’s one that is World wide.
In Christ love, Amen
