Justification Sanctification Glorification Romans 8:18 CSB 18 For I consider that the sufferings of this present time are not worth comparing with the glory that is going to be revealed to us. The Bread Luke 23:46 CSB 46 And Jesus called out with a loud voice, “Father, into your hands I entrust my spirit.” Saying this, he breathed his last. The Wine His Blood Is Perfect 2 Corinthians 5:21 - Paul tells us that Jesus NEVER sinned. But, He took our sin upon Himself. His Blood is Pure Hebrews 9:14 – Jesus offered Himself UNBLEMISHED to God His Blood is Perpetual Hebrews 7:27 -- … Jesus sacrificed for our sins once for all when He offered Himself. His Blood is Powerful Revelation 12:11 – they OVERCAME Satan by the blood of the Lamb His Blood is Permanent 1 John 1:7 - We don’t wash it away as a stain but, instead, it WASHED AWAY our stain of sin! Psalms 103:12 CSB 12 As far as the east is from the west,so far has he removed our transgressions from us. Get Ready 1 Corinthians 11:28 CSB 28 Let a person examine himself; in this way let him eat the bread and drink from the cup. 1 Corinthians 11:31-32 CSB 31 If we were properly judging ourselves, we would not be judged, 32 but when we are judged by the Lord, we are disciplined, so that we may not be condemned with the world. THE LORD'S SUPPER 1 Corinthians 11:23-24 CSB 23 For I received from the Lord what I also passed on to you: On the night when he was betrayed, the Lord Jesus took bread, 24 and when he had given thanks, broke it, and said, “This is my body, which is for you. Do this in remembrance of me.” John 6:51 CSB 51 I am the living bread that came down from heaven. If anyone eats of this bread he will live forever. The bread that I will give for the life of the world is my flesh.” 1 Corinthians 11:25 CSB 25 In the same way also he took the cup, after supper, and said, “This cup is the new covenant in my blood. Do this, as often as you drink it, in remembrance of me.” Matthew 26:28 CSB 28 For this is my blood of the covenant, which is poured out for many for the forgiveness of sins.

Put on the full armor of God so that you can stand against the schemes of the devil. For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the cosmic powers of this darkness, against evil, spiritual forces in the heavens. For this reason take up the full armor of God, so that you may be able to resist in the evil day, and having prepared everything, to take your stand. "Satan and his forces have a plan to terrorize your soul, to render you powerless as a believer, to make you worthless to the cause of Christ and to make your life one of misery and spiritual defeat." - James Motley in Spiritual Warfare THREE Keys to Victory 1. Be Strong (6:10) “I am not ashamed of the gospel because it is the power of God for the salvation of everyone… who believes.” Romans 1:16 “Do not merely listen to the word, and so deceive yourselves.

We glorify God by making disciples of all nations. ========== Connection Card https://istrouma.org/myinfo September 12, 2021 | Tim Keith "Let's Get to the Heart of the Matter" Ephesians 5:15-17 (CSB) Ephesians 5:15-17 Pay careful attention, then, to how you walk — not as unwise people but as wise — making the most of the time, because the days are evil. So don’t be foolish, but understand what the Lord’s will is. Examine Your Heart v.15 Ephesians 5:1-17 Therefore, be imitators of God, as dearly loved children, and walk in love, as Christ also loved us and gave himself for us, a sacrificial and fragrant offering to God. But sexual immorality and any impurity or greed should not even be heard of among you, as is proper for saints. Obscene and foolish talking or crude joking are not suitable, but rather giving thanks. For know and recognize this: Every sexually immoral or impure or greedy person, who is an idolater, does not have an inheritance in the kingdom of Christ and of God. Let no one deceive you with empty arguments, for God’s wrath is coming on the disobedient because of these things. Therefore, do not become their partners. For you were once darkness, but now you are light in the Lord. Walk as children of light — for the fruit of the light consists of all goodness, righteousness, and truth — testing what is pleasing to the Lord. Don’t participate in the fruitless works of darkness, but instead expose them. For it is shameful even to mention what is done by them in secret. Everything exposed by the light is made visible, for what makes everything visible is light. Therefore it is said: Get up, sleeper, and rise up from the dead, and Christ will shine on you. Pay careful attention, then, to how you walk — not as unwise people but as wise — making the most of the time, because the days are evil. So don’t be foolish, but understand what the Lord’s will is. Purify Your Heart v. 16 Psalms 24:3-4 Who may ascend the mountain of the Lord? Who may stand in his holy place? The one who has clean hands and a pure heart, who has not appealed to what is false, and who has not sworn deceitfully. Matthew 5:8 Blessed are the pure in heart, for they will see God. Guard Your Heart v.16-17 Luke 11:34 Your eye is the lamp of the body. When your eye is healthy, your whole body is also full of light. But when it is bad, your body is also full of darkness. Proverbs 4:23 Guard your heart above all else, for it is the source of life. Proverbs 4:23-27 Guard your heart above all else, for it is the source of life. Don’t let your mouth speak dishonestly, and don’t let your lips talk deviously. Let your eyes look forward; fix your gaze straight ahead. Carefully consider the path for your feet, and all your ways will be established. Don’t turn to the right or to the left; keep your feet away from evil. Ephesians 5:4 Obscene and foolish talking or crude joking are not suitable, but rather giving thanks. Ephesians 5:3 But sexual immorality and any impurity or greed should not even be heard of among you, as is proper for saints. Psalms 119:9 How can a young man keep his way pure? By keeping your word.

Be angry and do not sin. Don’t let the sun go down on your anger, and don’t give the devil an opportunity. Let the thief no longer steal. Instead, he is to do honest work with his own hands, so that he has something to share with anyone in need. No foul language should come from your mouth, but only what is good for building up someone in need, so that it gives grace to those who hear. And don’t grieve God’s Holy Spirit. You were sealed by him for the day of redemption. Let all bitterness, anger and wrath, shouting and slander be removed from you, along with all malice. And be kind and compassionate to one another, forgiving one another, just as God also forgave you in Christ.

An evil person produces evil out of the evil stored up in his heart, for his mouth speaks from the overflow of the heart.

Ephesians 4:17-24 Ephesians 4:17-24 Therefore, I say this and testify in the Lord: You should no longer walk as the Gentiles do, in the futility of their thoughts. They are darkened in their understanding, excluded from the life of God, because of the ignorance that is in them and because of the hardness of their hearts. They became callous and gave themselves over to promiscuity for the practice of every kind of impurity with a desire for more and more. But that is not how you came to know Christ, assuming you heard about him and were taught by him, as the truth is in Jesus, to take off your former way of life, the old self that is corrupted by deceitful desires, to be renewed in the spirit of your minds, and to put on the new self, the one created according to God’s likeness in righteousness and purity of the truth. Take Off the Old v. 22 Romans 13:12 The night is nearly over, and the day is near; so let us discard the deeds of darkness and put on the armor of light. Renew Your Mind v. 23 Romans 12:2 Do not be conformed to this age, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, so that you may discern what is the good, pleasing, and perfect will of God. Put On the New v. 24 Colossians 3:9-10 Do not lie to one another, since you have put off the old self with its practices and have put on the new self. You are being renewed in knowledge according to the image of your Creator. Want to receive weekly announcements in your inbox each week?

There is one body and one Spirit — just as you were called to one hope at your calling — one Lord, one faith, one baptism, one God and Father of all, who is above all and through all and in all. Then we will no longer be little children, tossed by the waves and blown around by every wind of teaching, by human cunning with cleverness in the techniques of deceit.

We too all previously lived among them in our fleshly desires, carrying out the inclinations of our flesh and thoughts, and we were by nature children under wrath as the others were also. But God, who is rich in mercy, because of his great love that he had for us, made us alive with Christ even though we were dead in trespasses. You are saved by grace! He also raised us up with him and seated us with him in the heavens in Christ Jesus, so that in the coming ages he might display the immeasurable riches of his grace through his kindness to us in Christ Jesus. For you are saved by grace through faith, and this is not from yourselves; it is God’s gift — not from works, so that no one can boast. For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared ahead of time for us to do.

Ephesians 1:11-23 PROMISES WE HAVE IN CHRIST Our Inheritance Our Assurance Our Abundance 4 Reasons Why We Doubt Our Salvation 1. Salvation is Missing (Matt. 7:21) Matthew 7:21 “Not everyone who says to me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ will enter the kingdom of heaven, but only the one who does the will of my Father in heaven. 4 Reasons Why We Doubt Our Salvation 2. Satan (John 8:44) John 8:44 You are of your father the devil, and you want to carry out your father’s desires. He was a murderer from the beginning and does not stand in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he tells a lie, he speaks from his own nature, because he is a liar and the father of lies. Revelation 12:9-10 So the great dragon was thrown out — the ancient serpent, who is called the devil and Satan, the one who deceives the whole world. He was thrown to earth, and his angels with him. Then I heard a loud voice in heaven say, The salvation and the power and the kingdom of our God and the authority of his Christ have now come, because the accuser of our brothers and sisters, who accuses them before our God day and night, has been thrown down.
