Preparation for Worship -- October 23, 2011 @ 5pm

October 23 -- Bible Study "What Guides us as Christians?" By what spirit are we led in our lives? Romans 8:9-14 Is this Inward Principle our guide and rule? 1 John 2:27, 1 Thessalonians 4:9 If Christians are to be taught by an inward anointing, is this principle at the heart of our new relationship with God? Hebrews 8:10-11, John 6:45 Did Christ, therefore, promise that the Spirit should both abide with his followers and be in them? John 14:16-17 Why were the Scriptures written? Romans 15:4 How are they useful? 2 Timothy 3:15-17 What gives the Scriptures such importance over other written works? 2 Peter 1:20-21 What did Christ mean when we commanded us to search the Scriptures? John 5:39 What does Christ say to those who would proclaim the Bible but who do not allow themselves to be guided by them? John 5:45-47 How do we account for folks who claim to be ruled by, but do not obey the Scriptures? 2 Peter 3:16
