Taylor's Chapel Baptist Church Unknown

Today we discuss Man's origins, spirit, soul, nature, will, fall, and future. The bible is clear that man was mad in God's image and that due to sin, we are spiritually stillborn and only come alive after we have repented and placed our faith in Jesus Christ who paid for my sins. We have a free will and can reject this offer. But God is interested in us and having a relationship with us.

Communion is a command from Jesus Christ that we are to follow. We take the bread and fruit of the vine to remember His sacrifice of a broken body and blood poured out for out sins. We take the Lords Supper to communion with God and as a body of believers. We are reminded that we should conduct a self-examination prior to taking and to be serious when we partake.

What do we know about the third part of the Godhead, the Holy Spirit. Today we are reminded that the Holy Spirit is there are our comforter, guide, helper, gift giver, intercessor, counselor, encourager, and seal. The work of the Spirit is to bring conviction to who are are not saved and guidance to those who are. We know we can grieve and quench the spirit, but we must listen and be obedient. The Spirit was active in creation, present at the conception of Jesus' earthly body, involved in the resurrection, and is at all times present in the believer. The most challenging question Christians have before them is not, 'how much of the Spirit you have,' but rather, 'hw much of you the Holy Spirit has.'

What do we know about God-- Where do we get this knowledge-- Have we put God in our little box-- God does not fit inside of what we think we know about Him. The only way to come to know Him and continue to be known by Him is to allow Him to destroy the ways we've limited him. The reality is that 'our ways are not His ways' and 'nothing is too difficult for the Lord.' 'With God all things are possible.'

Jesus Christ is God's only Son. He is God and part of the Godhead, but has unique roles and duties. We discuss what his name means and just a little about Him. He is the incantation -God in the flesh-, creator of the universe, exact living image of God, source of the universe, head of the church, born of a virgin, sinless, risen after death, coming again, reigning in heaven at God's right hand, and our atonement and redeemer. Oh what a God we serve-

God exists- He is a Spirit. God is three persons manifested as the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. While God is incomprehensible He has reveled some of his attributes by which we can know some things about Him and His nature. Remember- however, Gods IS fully all these things. They are not parts of God or things that make Him up, rather they find their completeness in Him. He is- self-sufficient, Eternal, Infinite, Immutable, Omniscience, Self-Existent, Wisdom, Omnipresent, Good, Faithful, Justice Mercy , Grace, Love, Sovereign, Holy, Immanuel.
