January 27, 2019 Biblical Responses to Secular Beliefs (3) Faith, Reason and Knowledge
Read: Proverbs 1:7
Romans 1:18-23

“ If you do not start your thinking with the God of the Bible, it is impossible to give a reasonable account of the world and the big questions of life. You don’t start with reason and reason your way to God. You start with God and show that any reasoning about ultimate things that does not start with God is actually irrational. ”

Read: Romans 12:2
Ephesians 4:17-24

“We live in a secular world that teaches that all that matters is our lives in the here and now. The Bible teaches us that the most important thing for human beings is how they relate to the God of the Bible. And what we will see the more that we study the Bible and ourselves and the world around us is that the world of which we are a part reflects perfectly the word of its Creator.”

January 13, 2019 Biblical Responses to Secular Beliefs (1) Destroying Arguments Raised Against the Knowledge of God
Read: 2 Corinthians 10:1-6
2 Corinthians 11:1-6
1 Peter 3:13-17

“One of the secular beliefs that we will have to address is the belief that the secular world-view is based on reason alone while the biblical world-view is based on a faith that is not reasonable. Part of demolishing arguments raised against God is to show that no-one believes what they believe on the basis of reason alone. There are many factors that go into why we believe what we believe and one of the factors that is very powerful is the company that we keep, the society in which we live and the desire to be accepted and admired by people that we admire.”

January 06, 2019 The Fifth Commandment (5) Submit to One Another
Read: Ephesians 5:1-21
Text: verse 21

“In biblical thought the freedom of individualism is really bondage and the submission to God and to the obligations of belonging to the body of Christ is really freedom. True freedom in biblical terms is not freedom to express ourselves and to do whatever we want to do, it is living as God has designed us to live and that involves a significant dose of self-denial and submitting to the demands and constraints of our relationships with other people.”

January 06, 2019 Living with Realism and Hope in our Time
Read: Matthew 24:1-14

“The application for us as we face a new year is, “Do not be complacent. Do not take it for granted that you are not being pulled into the current of worldly thinking and worldly living. Think very seriously about your life and values and priorities in the light of biblical teaching.” One of the common themes of the best Christian literature on this subject is that the only Christians who will survive in the current environment are those who go deep – that is those who are serious about their relationship with the Lord...”
