“There are many countries today where Christians endure persecution on a massive scale. Are we as children of God called to stand and be proactive? Are we not to be involved until we are backed into a corner? Then, are we to be always reactive, never on the offensive but always on the defensive? Are we to look the other way and allow the adversary to make a foothold in the world? How do you understand the Christian life and why? These are questions that need to be considered when truly evaluating your spiritual health. Do you look forward to your time with the Lord or does it become a drudgery or obligation?” – J. Hamilton Weston Rev. Weston challenges himself and us to acknowledge the “detail” inertia (and others) which has left us in the Church gliding through this life instead of reporting for duty as a member of God’s Army. Let us get up and be the servants He has called us to be and fulfill our mission in God’s Kingdom!
The Beatitudes, as they have been later known, the guiding path set before every disciple of Jesus Christ, since the beginning of His ministry. Jesus demonstrated each one in everyday life experiences. However, He also made known to the disciples that it is the Spirit of God that guides the true Believer into a right and focused intimate relationship with Him. Being able to understand the roles of the Trinity in the life of the individual Believer will assist the one seeking that perfect relationship with God. Through this relationship, one can strive with others for the work of the eternal Kingdom of God. The Believer should be made aware of the power that the Holy Spirit brings when allowed to work in their life. Join Pastor J. Hamilton Weston in this Bible study that brings the Beatitudes and the Holy Spirit together to work in our livesl
