CLOTHED IN HOLINESS
CLOTHED IN HOLINESS. Put on the new self, created to be like God in true righteousness and holiness. (Eph. 4:24 niv) . What impact should the holiness of God have on our daily lives?

When you feel as if things are out of control, when FOLLOWING THE JUDAS GOAT A documentary on television was filmed in a packinghouse where sheep were being slaughtered for the meat market. Huddled in pens outside were hundreds of nervous animals that seemed to sense danger. A gate opened that led up a ramp and though a door to the right. To get the sheep to walk up that ramp, the handlers used a “Judas goat.”. JOHN 20:19-31 COMMENTARY BY KAROLINE LEWIS Twice Jesus will meet the disciples as “I am the door” from chapter 10. Our typical readings of John 10 locate “I am the gate” exclusively in the context of shepherding and sheep or with the phrase “I am the way, the truth, and the life.”. But the word in chapterten is
FUNDAMENTALIST-MODERNIST CONTROVERSY. The fundamentalist-modernist controversy was an extended conflict in the Protestant churches and American society at large between religious liberals, who sought to preserve Christianity by accommodating the traditional faith to modern culture, and militant theological conservatives, determined to save evangelical Christianity and American civilization from the advances of modernism THE INSANITY OF SAUL THE INSANITY OF SAUL. Now the Spirit of the Lord had departed from Saul, and an evil spirit from the Lord tormented him. (1 Samuel 16:14).

LIVING WATER
Simple water cannot quench our thirst forever. Physical water is outside of us, but living water—the gift of the Holy Spirit—dwells in us, giving us everlasting life. The things of this world cannot fill the emptiness inside of us; only Christ can make us whole. This is the Good News that Jesus proclaimed to this outcast, immoral woman.

ANAMNESIS – ENCYCLOPEDIC DICTIONARY OF BIBLE AND THEOLOGY This Greek word is practically untranslatable in English. “Memorial,” “commemoration,” “remembrance” all suggest a recollection of the past, whereas anamnesis means making present an object or person from the past. Sometimes the term “reactualization” has been used to indicate the force ofanamnesis.
CLOTHED IN HOLINESS
CLOTHED IN HOLINESS. Put on the new self, created to be like God in true righteousness and holiness. (Eph. 4:24 niv) . What impact should the holiness of God have on our daily lives? To answer this question, we need to have a better understanding of the meaning of holiness. Many people think of holiness only in terms of moral purity or SPIRITUAL TRANSFORMATION When the Spirit of God within begins to transform us, the process of spiritual transformation is natural. Changes on the inside eventually show up on the outside.925. 2 Cor. 3:18; 1 Peter 1:23–25. MANY people hatedieting.
GRIEF AND COMFORT
ISAIAH 40:1–5. “Comfort, yes, comfort My people!” says your God. ( Isa. 40:1 ). Inevitably, when you encourage people to endure suffering with grace, to look beyond death and its tangled web of fear and regret, to live with their eyes fixed on heaven instead of the transient things of earth, you run the risk of sounding cold andunfeeling.

In a world with instability at every turn, it is a great comfort to know something always remains the same—God. When you feel as if things are out of control, when PURSUING RIGHTEOUSNESS MATTHEW 5:13–20.

LUKE 24:36B-48 COMMENTARY BY JACOB MYERS Jesus inaugurates a peace that arises out of — and sometimes in the absence of — faith. Jesus’ presence ought to haunt every fellowship worthy of his name.
