Worldliness

The Bible says…

 

In seeking to know the will of God regarding perplexities and problems, the Christian must come to the Bible for the solution of his problem, with an open mind and a willing heart.

Over and over again the Bible warns against worldliness.

Who does what?

A man and his wife were having an argument about who should brew the coffee each morning.

The wife said, 'You should do it because you get up first, and then we don't have to wait as long to get our coffee. The husband said, 'You are in charge of cooking around here and you should do it, because that is your job, and I can just wait for my coffee.' Wife replies, 'No, you should do it, and besides, it is in the Bible that the man should do the coffee.' Husband replies, 'I can't believe that, show me.'  that it indeed says .'HEBREWS'

Spirt of missions

The spirit of Christ is the spirit of missions. The nearer we get to Him, the more intensely missionary we become. 

Sympathy is no substitute for action.
