There have always been many voices saying “This is the way to know God.” Today’s media explosion has created more voices and more confusion. Why then another? Our purpose is to share truth to help strengthen your relationship with God and with other believers in your locality.

Personal connection with other believers cannot be replaced by the mass media. It is much more satisfying to have a deep spiritual relationship with ten believers than to be in a crowd of ten thousand. Every individual is important to God, and His plan involves each one in a very real way. There are things that are important to God that can only take place in close personal relationships.

The goal of God is to build a family of His children together in love, walking in truth. Personal submission and obedience to Christ will bring conformity of each member to Christ, and a growing expression of the nature of God in a local gathering. The testimony going out to the world around will be as a “light set on a hill that cannot be hidden” and “the pillar and ground of the truth.”

Episode 100 Encouragement in our walk with Jesus

Christianity can be complicated. How many Bible Schools are there that seek to teach the proper doctrines, yet there are many differences that divide and often in a very deep way. Why is that? Is there an answer? Is unity in Christ Jesus possible? Jesus prayed that we may be one, even as the Father and He were one. Yet if we look around us at the general world of Christianity, oneness does not seem to be the characteristic. If it is, it is often on the surface level. The oneness of the Father and Son is not superficial. They are one in life, in very essence. Today I want to share some simple encouragement with us that I trust will be of help in our walk with Jesus.

  • Be faithful to your relationship with Jesus in the truth that He has made real to you.
  • Be faithful to the brothers and sisters God has put in your life
  • Be content with the “ones and twos”. God will take care of the multitudes
  • All truth is important when God brings it to you (don’t evade)
  • There will be opposition
  • There will be failure (not all will go on with Jesus)
  • There will be cost that will require sacrifice
  • There will be emotionally challenging times
  • Truth does take time to assimilate and walk in
  • God is in charge
  • It is a spiritual battle
  • We must avail of spiritual weapons
  • Focus on knowing God—That will overflow in our whole life
  • There will be times of failure in our lives—get up and keep going
  • The battle was won at Calvary. Our victory is to stand in His victory
  • Our passion is to know Him (Phil 3)
