The theology of rest

Matthew 8:26
But He said to them, “Why are you fearful, O you of little faith?” Then He arose and rebuked the winds and the sea, and there was a great calm.

Quench not the spirit

1 Thessalonians 5:19
Do not quench the Spirit

Chastening 

Hebrew 7:5
And indeed those who are of the sons of Levi, who receive the priesthood, have a commandment to receive tithes from the people according to the law, that is, from their brethren, though they have come from the loins of Abraham

Does He know me

John 10:3
To him the doorkeeper opens, and the sheep hear his voice; and he calls his own sheep by name and leads them out.

Are you discouraged in Devotion

Luke 18:22
So when Jesus heard these things, He said to him, “You still lack one thing. Sell all that you have and distribute to the poor, and you will have treasure in heaven; and come, follow Me.”

Have you ever been expressionless with sorrow

Luke 18:23
But when he heard this, he became very sorrowful, for he was very rich.

Significance of Repentance

. Leads to Rejoicing – Luke 15:10
Likewise, I say to you, there is joy in the presence of the angels of God over one sinner who repents.”

. Leads to Spiritual Resurrection – Luke 15:24

for this my son was dead and is alive again; he was lost and is found.’ And they began to be merry.

. Leads to Salvation – 2 Corinthians 7:10 

For godly sorrow produces repentance leading to salvation, not to be regretted; but the sorrow of the world produces death.
