Saving...
The topic of the past few messages has been teaching. To become the God glorifying Christians that God calls us to be, we need to renew our minds in the Word. Two weeks ago, Wanda taught us the value of bringing up our children in the word of God. When we teach the children and youth what the correct path is, we build up our church for many years to come. In Bible study, we’ve studied the ethics of being a Christian, and what this means as we relate to others. We’ve learned that Christ calls us to love the Lord God with all our hearts and minds and souls and strengths, but we also are to love our neighbors as ourselves. In a Church setting, this call to consider our neighbors before ourselves leads to a certain framework of behavior.

First let’s define a lie: a false statement made with deliberate intent to deceive; an intentional untruth; a falsehood.
With this in mind, let’s look at this scene, “Did you take a cookie”? The child immediately says no: Now we sometimes tend to find this amusing, but we must look closely at the effect of sin that is at work here. (The child is intentionally attempting to deceive someone whom she knows loves her. Why? You know you didn’t teach your child to do that. (more…)
La Vanidad
2012
El 19 de febrero hablamos sobre que es la vanidad. En Eclesiastes 1:2-11 nos dice que el Rey Salomón tuvo todo cuanto quería, incluyendo sabiduría, riquezas, fama, poder, etc,( pero), el dichoso pero, cuando analizó y consideró cuidadosamente la vida humana y la existencia del hombre, concluyó que todo es vanidad de vanidades. Cuando consideramos lo que dice Salomon llegamos a la conclusión que la verdadera condición de toda la vida humana en la tierra, sin Dios, puede ser resumida en una palabra, Vanidad. El predicador en pocas palabras, dice que la vida humana en si es vanidad, es como perseguir sombras o ir tras el viento, Imagínate eso, ir tras el viento, algo que ni se ve ni se puede tocar.
