Practical Lists

A. Our first list is a representation of toxic ideas. When Beauty eats the wrong apple. There are various poisonous apples on the market.
The list is here in the Article "Red and poisonous"


B. The next list is written by alphabetical order. The main reason is one of the most important and typical problem that we have to understand and solve in communities: namely, bias. Bias happens mainly because each person tends to choose between "important and less important" issues according to his/her personal character and family upbringing. {According to the apostles, this is the part of the old self" and it is still at work today..}
Preferences are coming from subconscious preferences. {"the attitude assumes that.."} But if I write down the tasks in alphabetical order, I will not produce personal messages about my biases.
{hopefully}

This list is constantly growing

III. Working with God

Image
I - II - III - IV from the book: "God Knows You’re Human" by Terry Virgo Working with God When you know that God has initiated a relationship, you can also expect His help. You do not have to make the disciple over-dependent on you. You become a fellow labourer with God in producing another disciple of the Lord Jesus. ‘Who do people say the Son of man is?’ Jesus asked His disciples ( Matthew 16:13 ). Peter replied, “You are the Christ, the Son of the living God’ ( Matthew 16:16 ). On hearing this, Jesus said to Peter, ‘Blessed are you, Simon son of Jonah, for this was not revealed to you by man, but by my Father in heaven’ ( Matthew 16:17 ). Jesus was the discipler, but Peter found out something that Jesus had never told him. He received a revelation from God. Similarly, when your disciple finds out things you did not tell him, don’t become offended but rejoice that God is working alongside you. Ultimately your goal is to help the new believer hear and obe...

Prayer Basics

Apostolic Instructions on Prayer, and the technical meaning of "Christ". First of all, then, I urge 1 that petitions, prayers, intercessions, and thanksgivings be made for everyone 2 , for kings and all those who are in authority, so that we may lead a tranquil and quiet life 3 in all godliness and dignity. This is good, and it pleases God our Savior, 4 who wants everyone to be saved and to come to the knowledge of the truth. For 5 there is one God and one mediator between God and humanity, Christ Jesus, Himself human, who gave Himself — a ransom for all 6 , a testimony at the proper time. ... I want the men in every place to pray, lifting up holy hands without anger or argument... 7 1Tim 2:1-6,8 (Holman C.S.B.) Notes 1 "I emphatically tell you.." It's not a command but a strong suggestion with apostolic authority. 2 "for everyone" means everyone. The next verses explain the social layers and ...

10 Things You Should Know about the Presence of God

Image
This study provides a useful overview of the presence of Gd, doing so independently of today’s rather biased movements. {The next 2 paragraphs are fragments}   2. The Bible emphasizes God’s manifest presence, not only his omnipresence There is a difference between saying “God is everywhere,” and saying “God is here.” The former is the default category for most Christians. We talk about God’s presence being inescapable and that he is “everywhere present” (Ps 139:5-12; 1 Kings 8:27). But it seems Scripture is more concerned with his presence manifest in relationship and redemption . And though these divine realities are certainly not at odds, the biblical story does turn on God’s being manifest with his people in Eden, the tabernacle/temple, the incarnation of Christ, and the new heaven and new earth. 3. The story of Scripture begins and ends with the presence of God In the book of Genesis, Eden is the first couple’s home but, more importantly, it is God’s sanctuary—the garden temple...
