St. Paul School of Leadership & Discipleship "Be ye followers of me, even as I also am of Christ" I Corinthians 11:1
The St. Paul School, with Frank Eiklor, Eileen Young and Cecilia Contreras)
Remember, there are three simple rules to successful memorizing of God’s Word—1) Review; 2) Review; 3) Review. Chocolate melts in the heat. Many Christians do the same when trials and persecution come their way. Do you want God to become more real to you? Do you want to get to know Him better? Do you want to get to know how to discern His will from your own—or the devil’s subtle, sneaky will? Then start to memorize His Word.
The universe equals billions of stars grouped in uncountable galaxies. Just one, the Milky Way is where we live—and our solar system is an insignificant part—with our planet earth a grain of sand by comparison... Who really crucified Jesus Christ? The mystery is soon to be solved... Times haven’t changed. Look around you today. A large number of ministers serve in churches for a mere livelihood—not as calling from the Lord. And while we have a great number of Christians serving God lovingly and sacrificially, there are others who function under one main impulse—greed. That’s life. The bad and the good—just like 2000 years ago. How do you explain the crucifixion? Was it political opportunism? Or fickle human changeableness? Or was it plain jealousy? Or a fear of Jesus? It was all that and more. The crucifixion involved Satan’s rage against God as well as God’s love for His world... Jesus had become something that is impossible for us to comprehend—the sin-bearing Lamb taking on the sins of the world... What was He sweating for? What was He bleeding for? There was no argument in my mind as to who crucified Jesus... The secular world has done a better job than the Christian Church at making sex appear wonderful, appealing and rewarding. We Christians? We make sexual control sound like an enema—something I might need in the future, but not now. |
