“The Honor of Slavery to Christ” Study Notes VF...

Onesimus was a runaway slave when Paul birthed him into God’s kingdom. At Paul’s request, he was restored to a much better state. Similarly, we are slaves to the world, the flesh, and the devil. We are unprofitable to God until we subject ourselves to the better state of slavery to Christ. This New Testament kind of slavery should not be seen as a pejorative state but as an honor and a privilege. ...

Paul’s instruction that slaves should obey their masters can be better understood after looking at how the book of Genesis describes slaves. Slaves were treated like part of the family, were entrusted with responsibilities, and had rights. We should do whatever we do as unto the Lord. We serve a Living God. “We Are Servants of the Living God” Study Notes VF-2311 Some Materials Referenced in these Stu...

The slavery described in the Bible is not like the slavery of modern times. Slavery is a product of fallen man. God did not ordain it, but He worked with it for a purpose. Hebrew slaves were treated well, almost like a part of the family, and many willingly entered into servitude. We should all have a relationship of willing obedience to our Master. “God Never Ordained Slavery” Study Notes VF-2310 Some Mat...

Jesus has given us “power of attorney” to act on His behalf, using His name. So why have our prayers become powerless? Are we just uttering words when we finish our prayers, “In Jesus’ name”? When we pray in our own strength and in our own flesh, we become powerless. But when we connect our thoughts in prayer with everything we know about Jesus and the actions He has already made good on, we can begin to tap into the power and exercise the authority w...

Throughout church history, music has been an expression of worship to God. When the word dwells richly in our hearts, it expresses itself through us in teaching, admonishing, and singing. Music and the word belong together and have the power to affect and change lives. “Music Steeped in the Word Has Transforming Power” Study Notes VF-2308 Some Materials Referenced in these Study Notes including DVD's are available.

Historically, there has been debate over music within the church. A closer look at the Bible shows that music has always been a part of God’s program. Music has been used to express praise and thanksgiving to God, and to teach people His word. Music in the church is meant to be an expression of devotion from the heart. “Music Is an Integral Part of Worship” Study Notes VF-2307 Some Materials Referenced in these Study Notes ...

If you desire the word of God, take the next step and learn it. Let the word of Christ dwell in you and become part of your being. The indwelling word has the power to enlighten you, quench your thirst, strengthen you, wash you, build you up, and bring you to completion. Immerse yourself in it, and it will bring forth fruit in you. “The Indwelling Word of Christ Completes Us” Study Notes VF-2306 Some Materials Referenced in these...

There are abundant passages in Scripture about why we should be thankful to the Lord. Expressing gratitude is an integral part of our faith commitment. It brings us close to God. Giving thanks to God for what He has done is the hallmark of the regenerate heart and mind. God has chosen you to make you part of His plan, and He died for you to give you eternal life. “Giving Thanks to God: The Hallmark of the Regenerate Mind” Study Notes V...

The peace of God should be understood as something that is separate and distinct from peace with God. Peace with God has a connection to our salvation. The peace of God is something that comes from Him. He gives it to us as a remedy for fear, to help us stay strong in the midst of crisis. With fear coming at us from every direction, this may be one of the most important messages to help us keep our sanity, as well as our faith. “Let the Peac...

The unconditional agapē love that comes from God is not like human love; it is the fruit of the Spirit of God in us, not something we can produce in the flesh. Agapē love links us to God, and from it flow joy, peace, longsuffering, patience, kindness, generosity, and compassion. All the expressions of God’s Spirit flow from this first fruit. “The Love That Tethers Us to God” Study Notes VF-2303 Some Materials Referenced in these Study Notes incl...

It is difficult to forgive others if we fail to understand how much God has forgiven us. Unwillingness to forgive drives a wedge between us and God, and it begins to close off our channel of communication with Him. We must completely let go of the wrongs done to us, just as Christ has forgiven us. If we walk in the Spirit, in time, we will be able to let go and forgive. “The Biblical Concept of Forgiveness” Study Notes VF-2302 Some Materials Referenced ...

Pastor Scott conducts a word study in Colossians 3:11–13, which says, “Christ is all, and in all. Put on therefore, as the elect of God, holy and beloved, bowels of mercies, kindness, humbleness of mind, meekness, longsuffering; forbearing one another, and forgiving one another . . . .” In this passage, Paul laid down a roadmap for the early Christians at Colossae, to guide the individuals in the community to have fellowship with one another and with Christ. ...
