A Red Letter Christian

I found a site called “A Red Letter Christian” where they are doing a daily online one chapter a day gospel Bible study.  If you have time check out the site and daily keep in the words of Jesus.  Today’s chapter was in John 9 called The Blind Man Healed.  I like to listen and read when doing my daily chapter.  They offer the links to these things so it can all be done online.

 

These are things we can do to keep us in the words of Jesus.  Maybe we can talk about the chapters as we continue with an online Bible study.  In this chapter we see that it was a blind man from birth.  An interesting thing to me is that people associated sickness or in this case a man being born blind, with sinning.

 

Did you have any thoughts about the chapter?  Be sure to let us know.

Promises In The Words Of Jesus

Jesus says a lot about His words and they come with promises, the question is, do you receive these promises without having Christ’s words?

We will be judged by them:

John 12:48 He that rejecteth me, and receiveth not my words, hath one that judgeth him: the word that I have spoken, the same shall judge him in the last day.

We will know the truth only if we continue in His word:

John 8:31-32 Then said Jesus to those Jews which believed on him, If ye continue in my word, then are ye my disciples indeed; And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.

The Father and Jesus will make their abode with us:

John 14:23 Jesus answered and said unto him, If a man love me, he will keep my words: and my Father will love him, and we will come unto him, and make our abode with him.

We can ask what we will and it will be done unto us:

John 15:7 If ye abide in me, and my words abide in you, ye shall ask what ye will, and it shall be done unto you.

Do these promises come with any others words? Do you have these promises without the words of Christ? Do church’s teach His words? Do church’s receive the promises?

These are all questions we need to ponder for sure.
