The Christian life is not merely about what is right or wrong; it is about holiness and conformity to Christ. Sir Elorm shares that the reason Paul gave these instructions to Timothy was that he might war a good warfare. When believers are not taught the ways of God and how to be directed, they cannot manifest what God has purposed for them.
Warring with prophecy encompasses every aspect of Christian living. Scripture says, “Fight the good fight of faith, lay hold on eternal life.” To lay hold on eternal life is to keep the faith. Faith is not about sacrifices but about obedience — looking unto Jesus, the author and finisher of our faith.
True Christian living is to look unto Jesus. A good conscience is that which is educated by the Word of God, and to lay hold on eternal life is to walk in that good conscience. Hebrews teaches that a purged conscience comes by the blood, a good conscience comes by the Word, and together they produce a pure conscience.
Only those who walk in a good conscience can truly walk in the life of Christ.
What to Expect:
- Purpose of admonishments on Christian living
- Travailing unto conformity
- Fulfilling the prophecies that have gone before you
- Obedience and Christian living
- Holding faith and a good conscience
- Purged conscience, good conscience, and pure conscience
- Handing over to Satan
Prepare for a revelatory and challenging session that calls the believer to obedience, purity, and perseverance in faith, till He comes.
Shalom! Maranatha!
