But do you think he would have known at the time the consequences of Jesus dying on the cross?I'm sure his rebellion at so many levels was deliberate.
Morality, good and bad, right and wrong, Ethics, Virtues...A few examples:
Warming your hands in front of a fire
Falling in love
Mine are:
Falling onto my bed after a long and tiring day
Gulping down a drink when super thirsty
I think we need to concentrate on our own obligations to God's Word.But do you think he would have known at the time the consequences of Jesus dying on the cross?
I think we should also remember that it should all be centred in Christ and His work at the Cross for sinners. "For all the promises of God in him are yea, and in him Amen, unto the glory of God by us." (2 Corinthians 1.20)Some of it says this...
I came up with this list a while back and I think it lists many virtues...
Lord, grant us, give to us, let us be showing toward you, Faith, Hope, Love, Trust, Truth, Honesty, Patience, Peace, Serenity, Joy, Happiness, Goodness, Thankfulness, Gratefulness, Virtue, Integrity, Strength, Courage, Endurance, Wisdom, Self-control, Selflessness, Satisfaction, Fulfillment, Contentment, Wholeness, Completeness, Bliss, Grace, Mercy, Gentleness, Empathy, Forgiveness, Understanding, Absolution, Acceptance...
Lord, show toward us, (and let us be showing toward you and others), Long-suffering Kindness, Purity, Meekness, Mildness, Humbleness, Lowliness, Gentleness, Tenderness, Generousity, and showing Humility and dependent and trusting upon you, in Love.
Lord, show toward us, Salvation, Redemption, Forgiveness, Reconciliation with You, Righteousness, Justice, Discernment, Guidance, Direction, Purpose...
Lord help us be Zealous for you, and your will, and the good news, and the good of others, Certainty and Confidence, in our Convictions and Beliefs about you... Positivity and a Positive Spirit, and Sureness in you... Genuine Concern for others, Optimism in the things to come, Genuine Affection for/toward you, ourselves, and others, Genuine Devotion, and Tenderness of Heart...
Unity in Us, in line with your will, Help us to Accurate and Authentic and Correct and Legitimate, and genuine in ourselves and the things about you, Let us face fate with fortitude practicing forebearance and tolerance and be submissive and always yielding to your will and help us be persistent with others in our beliefs about you.
Mine are more one word concepts...
Great Psalm, 121!true yet Our father cares very much about our emotions...I think we should trust what the Lord Jesus says far more than our feelings.
“He heals the brokenhearted, And binds up their wounds.”
Psalm 121:2
Yes, but words are awesome, aren't they...?I think we should also remember that it should all be centred in Christ and His work at the Cross for sinners. "For all the promises of God in him are yea, and in him Amen, unto the glory of God by us." (2 Corinthians 1.20)
Indeed! they can be the subject of some great Bible word studies.Yes, but words are awesome, aren't they...?
