He who is God. I Cor. 8:5-6
Have a reverence and respect to God. You would take duties and responsibilities lightly?
It emphasis truth. Remind yourselves of the power of God. The Lord heals. In Genesis, Noah showed how it was, of the wickedness.
Acts 12:21 “Voice of God, not of a man.”
What he says, it will happen. Be thankful of that and how he is just.
Gen. 1:27 Image of God. Mark 5:35
Don’t be afraid, just believe.
John 11 – Story of Lazareth.
Wounds? Acts 9
Lord caused Saul to be blind 3 days. Read Daniel 4 to Nebuchadnezzar vs. 25
Luke 22:50-51, Matt. 25:31, John 10:27 Hear his voice and follow him No one can force us from the Lord. Know what we are doing is right.
Romans 12:19 Vengeance is mine. I will replay the Lord.
God is love, all of this is in an exercise to grow deeper.
I John 4:19, 2 Pet. 3:9-10 Truly wonderful and is powerful demonstration of who he is and what he can be. Take the step to follow the gospel and be baptized and be a consistent, faithful and loving.

I Cor. 4:6 Not go beyond where it is not written
2 John 8-9
John 15:1-6
Col. 3:16,17
Introduce instruments in the church. What does the Bible say about the instruments of worship to God? Congregational singing.
New Testament never mentions instruments. I Cor. 14:7-9 Mentions the flute, harp, trumpet.
Rel. 5:8-9 Each had a harp. In imagery? Congregational singing not authorized by the New Testament.
Does the New Testament tell you how to worship. With instruments or not. Doesn’t tell us, so then what should we do?
Getting away from the Bible where salvation matters. If you do something, just do it.
How many scriptures are they using? No move than a tradition. Matt. 7:15, Rev. 2:4-5, Rev. 5:8-9, Rev. 15:2
Follow the Lord.
