A study of the characteristics and attributes of a Christian
Lesson 1
June 1, 2020 • Bishop Bob Sharp • Colossians 1:27, Acts 11:26
When asked what we are, what do we Answer. Often we say I am a Christian.
This is a generic term defining a particular belief. But there are many others.
Scriptures:
Acts 11:26; 1 Peter 4:16; Matthew 4:18-19; John 14:12 & 26; Acts 1:8
Matthew 10:7; Luke 10:19; 1 Corinthians 3:2; Hebrews 5:12; Colossians 1:27
Lesson 2

Lesson 1 we discovered that the word Christian is Christianos in Greek. The true interpretation of this is Anointed ones. So, in declaring we are a Christian we are stating that we are Anointed.
Wouldn’t it be wonderful today if we were called “The Anointed Ones”.

Luke 10:19; Romans 8:29-31; 2 Corinthians 3:17-18; Philippians 3:13-14
Romans 7:15-25, 8:1-2; Isaiah 61:1; John 8:36; 1 Peter 1:7-8; 2 Timothy 2:20-21

We have heard a lot about “Fake News”. The Bible warns us about “Fake Christians”.
So how do we determine who is truly a Child of God?
We will know a true Christian by their Spirit (Anointing).
