IMPORTANT POINTS GATHERED FROM THE MEETING:-

  • FAITH
  • THE MEANING OF FAITH!
  • IS THERE A NEED FOR GOD TO HAVE FAITH?

In the book Matthew 16:18, the 'Peter' mentioned here is a rock, not Apostle Peter. In Greek, it is called "Petra", whuch means a big rock. Christ is the chief corner stone, he is the foundation upon which the church was built on(Acts 4:10-12). Christ is the Rock in which the apostles of Christ where build on.
1 Corinthians 3:11 Christ is the foundation of the church, which is the church of God.

Romans 3:3 I learnt here that even if we don't believe in God, God have faith in us to do what is right as his children. The faith of God is different from the faith in God. God also possess faith although he is not looking up to anyone before he do things. God just need to say the word and it shall come to pass.

According to Hebrew 11:1, Faith is the assurance of things hoped for, evidence of things not seen. The true meaning of faith that is having confidence or believe in someone or something, holding unto the evidence of things not seen.

1 Thessalonians 2:4 This bible verse tells us that God has committed unto the apostles to preach the word of God, this proves that God has faith in the apostles.

Another area we expressed faith is in the second coming of Christ. We believing and earnestly waiting for Christ is an exercise of faith in God(Titus 2:11-13).

In the physical realm, things that cannot be seen bit there is evidence that it exist. An example is Oxygen, Oxygen cannot be seen with our naked eyes but there is an assurance that there is oxygen. Because without oxygen, a man is a dead man, we breathe in oxygen. Therefore the evidence that there is oxygen is "you being alive".

Spiritually speaking, Spirits cannot be seen. God, Son and Holyspirit are all Spirit, they cannot be seen but there are evidence that they exist. If we look around us, the creation that God made will tell us of God's existence. Evil Spirits cannot be seen too, but they manifested in man in such a way that we will know a person possessing them. For example, A man raping his own daughter, that is out of ordinary, an evil spirit is at work.

Romans 1:20 We are to believe in God, he cannot be seen. God is invisible, but we have to believe in him because he exists, since the things he created do exist and we can see them, so we believe in God because we have seen the things he created. And the evidence of his works here on Earth has proven that truly there is God. This evidence has proven that God do exist and that is why we trust in him.

HOW THE TEACHING IMPACT MY LIFE:-

There is evidence of God's existence. I also believe in his only begotten Son and his second coming. Christ is coming again, resurrection will happen, and there will be judgement. Anyone seen to be righteous, eternal life will be his.
Then according to Titus 2:12, I should live my life soberly, righteously and godly.

II CORINTHIANS 4:18
While we look not at the things which are seen, but at the things which are not seen: for the things which are seen are temporal; but the things which are not seen are eternal.
