Faith and obedience

Episode 503

Mark 11:22, James 2:23

Uncle Angus' favourite topic is faith, not just faith in anything, but faith in God, in Jesus Christ. Faith without obedience is just talk because faith is a doing word. Mark 11:22. Faith has got feet, it's God in action. James 2:23. God uses ordinary people who have faith in Him and are obedient to Him.

Holy Spirit

John 10:10, Zechariah 4:6, Colossians 1:27

We believe in the Holy Trinity. The Holy Spirit is a real person. He is our intimate Friend. The Holy Spirit brings life to the Bible. John 10:10. Zechariah 4:6. Colossians 1;27. He is there for us. He will be our Advocate, our Defender, our Comforter. The Holy Spirit is within us and He will give us the strength to finish.

No time to speculate

Romans 10:9, John 1:1, 1 John 4:4

John 1:1. 1 John 4:4. We cannot be a Christian without faith. There is no time left for us to speculate as to whether Jesus Christ is the Son of God or not. We need to believe that Jesus Christ is the Word of God, the Messiah, the Christ, The Son of God. Do not doubt the divinity and the majesty of Jesus Christ. Romans 10:9. Good people don't go to heaven, believers do.

Confession

Romans 3:23, 1 John 1:9

Confession means simply to say when you have done something wrong, to be honest about your sin, and to say that you are sorry. The devil doesn't like us to confess our sins because it sets us free from the chains that sin holds us in. 1 John 1:9. In our confession there is cleansing from our sins. Romans 3:23. All of us have sinned and fallen short of the glory of God. It is pride that keeps us from confessing our sins.
