And I, brethren, when I came to you, did not come with excellence of speech or of wisdom declaring to you the testimony of God. (1/3)

“I love Jesus… I just don’t like His followers!”
Have you heard that before?
1 John 4 says it’s not possible. If you love God, you will love His children. You can’t claim to love Jesus while hating His people.
Does your view of Jesus really matter?
Docetism said Jesus only “seemed” human. John calls that the spirit of the Antichrist.
Jesus is fully God and fully man. Getting His nature wrong is not a secondary issue.
1 John 4
Paul’s guidelines for gray areas:
Is it beneficial?
Is it constructive?
Does it build others up?
Does it cause anyone to stumble?
Can I do it for God’s glory?

God of All Comfort - 2 Corinthians 1

#PunkRockTheology #BigPicture #ReadTheBible #Devotional
Jehovah’s Witnesses say the Holy Spirit is just God’s active force.
But in Acts 5, Ananias lied to the Holy Spirit — and Peter calls it lying to God.
Acts 5 proves the Spirit is a person… and divine.
“Impression management” is nothing new.
Ananias and Sapphira wanted to look more generous than they were.
The early church learned quickly: God sees past the image we project.
Acts 5
“I discipline my body like an athlete, training it to do what it should. Otherwise, I fear that after preaching to others I myself might be disqualified.”
Paul’s point in 1 Corinthians 9: Spiritual fitness requires intentional training

For your obedience has become known to all. Therefore I am glad on your behalf; but I want you to be wise in what is good, and simple concerning evil. (1/2)
For I will not dare to speak of any of those things which Christ has not accomplished through me, in word and deed, to make the Gentiles obedient— (1/2)
