Online interactive Bible study

The names or titles of God ...
  And the next topic

Last night's Zoom Bible study only scratched the surface concerning the names of God or the the names for God in the Bible. 

Sister Margie Reveles-Benton, a Bible teacher, shared on this great faith-building topic. The idea is get us to dig deeper with our own prayerful research. We learn about the truths in the Bible so we can apply them and thereby lead victorious lives.

We serve an awesome God - the Creator of the universe - and the more we can get to know Him, the more we will see Him as the incomparable Lord that He really is. Blessed be His name.

It is not without reason that one of the 10 commandments warns us against taking the name of the Lord in vain (Exodus 20:7 - “You shall not take the name of the Lord your God in vain, for the Lord will not hold him guiltless who takes his name in vain."). 

Yet, we know from casual conversations in today's society that the "preferred" swear words expressed by many include the name of "Jesus" or references to "God" ----. Movies are filled with these expressions. It is not a coincidence. 

The demonic forces that seek constantly to get humans to blaspheme the Lord are behind this, and people allow themselves to be used in this sinful manner while incurring judgment on themselves. Yes, it makes the devil happy. 

Let me know if you are interested in participating or "observing" the new "Follow Jesus" Zoom Bible studies. You will need the link to join the online session. We have gone "international." The studies are non-intimidating and are open to anyone who wants to learn more about God and the Bible. We set aside a time for interaction, questions and views. We also invite prayer requests. Session last about 40 minutes.

Our next topic will be: "The Millennial Reign of Jesus Christ on Earth." What will be doing then? Could our "training" today, spiritual and natural, be applied then? We will probably have assignments then, and our skills will be put to use in those assignments. Ultimately, everyone will report to King Jesus during that time. 

An exciting season awaits the followers of Jesus Christ. Young people today worry that if Jesus is coming back soon, then what are their college studies and other skills for? Are they a waste of time? What about marriage? Character-building is now. You decide now how much you mature spiritually before the 1,000-year reign of Jesus. Etc.
