Edited Message from our Bible Study at Church
Our Bible Study has centered
on Jesus being the vine, and we are the branches, and the Father God is the
husbandman.
Isaiah 5:1-7 is a prophesy
regarding the children of Israel
Jesus also gave a warning
about the branches that did not bear fruit, to be cut off and cast away.
Our subject turned to Keeping
the commandments and the new commandment was to love God with all our heart
soul and might and our neighbor as ourselves.
The new commandment of Jesus
has no darkness as there is only light.
1 John 1:7 says to walk in
the light and the blood of Jesus cleanses us from all sin.
Jesus knows every situation
we encounter. Often we are like lost
sheep needing our shepherd, and when he finds us in our lost situation, he
rejoices that he has found us.
The branches cannot do
anything without the vine. We are like
that since only through Jesus can we accomplish that which he has called us to
do. We must continually abide in the
vine and draw our sustenance from Him.
John 15:16 Jesus calls us to himself and
tells us that He chose us first and then it is up to us to chose to serve Him.
Jesus also reminded us in
Matthew 5:14-16 that we are the light of the world and to allow our light to
shine so that others may also receive light.
Proverbs 4:18 reminds us that
the path of the just is as a shining light.
All that we need God will
provide, yet it is good to be prompted to remember to Ask, Seek and knock and
then to receive. God is always available
to give to those who are ready to receive.
