The Enticement of Man's Applause Versus The Enjoyment of God's Approval "We must picture hell as a state where everyone is perpetually concerned about his own dignity and advancement, where everyone has a grievance, and where everyone lives with the deadly serious passions of envy, self-importance, and resentment." - C.S. Lewis "in a world dominated by the image instead of the word, interior life gives way to exterior show. Substance gives way to simulation." - Rushkoff 1. Faith 2. Virtue 3. Knowledge 4.

1. δωρέομαι dōréomai, do-reh'-om-ahee; To bestow gratuitously. To give. 2. χάρις cháris, khar'-ece; Graciousness (as gratifying), of manner or act (abstract or concrete; literal, figurative or spiritual; especially the divine influence upon the heart, and its reflection in the life; including gratitude); acceptable, benefit, favor, gift, grace, gracious, joy, liberality, pleasure, thanks, thankworthy. His divine power has GRANTED to us: - All things that pertain to life and Godliness, - Through the knowledge of Him who called us to His own glory and excellence, - By which He has GRANTED to us His precious and very great promises, - So that through them you may become partakers of the divine nature, having escaped from the corruption that is in the world because of sinful desire. Divine Grace and Human Helplessness - Apart from God's grace, we are helpless in the most mundane earthly matters (Mark 4:26-28; Mark 6:34, 41). - Apart from God's grace, we are helpless on the battlefield of spiritual warfare (Mark 5:3-5). - Apart from God's grace, we are helpless in dealing with sickness and disease (Mark 5:25-27). - Apart from God's grace, we are helpless to meet the spiritual needs of others (Mark 9:20-27). May grace and peace be multiplied to you in the knowledge of God and Jesus our Lord.
