"How do we know what God requires of us? Part of the answer is obvious: Scripture reveals God’s moral will throughout its pages and in convenient summaries such as the Ten Commandments. But traditionally Christianity also teaches that we know God’s moral requirements through the natural law." -David Van Drunen #bible #faith #christianity #theology #10commandments #requirements https://lnkd.in/gmPJa74H

Usually, a slight altercation occurs upon accusation and the real authorities are brought in to mitigate the damage. I respond by saying, “There is plenty of cereal. We live in abundance, not scarcity. Your parents know what you need; you can trust us to provide.” -Aimee Joseph #faith #bible #christianity #scarcity #provision https://lnkd.in/gS7c2j_f

“Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness, for they will be satisfied.” – Matthew 5:6. What does it mean to hunger and thirst for righteousness?

In Deuteronomy, God instructs his people: “You shall teach [his law] diligently to your children, and shall talk of them when you sit in your house, and when you walk by the way, and when you lie down, and when you rise” (Deut. 6:7).

“Blessed are the meek, for they will inherit the Earth” - Matthew 5:5. Who are the meek? And what does it mean that they will “inherit” the Earth? Does this mean that it’s wrong for Christians to seek prominence?  #bible #christianity #faith #theology #meek #humble #unimportant #blessed https://lnkd.in/gBMwGHSU

Blessed are those who mourn, for they will be comforted” – Matthew 5:4. But how?

"I think one of the things that we need desperately is confidence when we're praying that the Lord really does hear us, and not to grow disheartened when we don't get the answer to our prayer right away, but to continue to pray." – Pastor Adriel Sanchez #faith #prayer #christianity #bible #hear #listen https://lnkd.in/guXneYJz

"There’s a similar kind of suspense in knowing God—he’s both a stranger and a friend. Though you feel his presence listening to the Scriptures, deep in prayer, or in the friendships of your faith community, he can feel distant when you need him the most. You can’t always find him, but he always seems to find you." -Ty Gregory #faith #bible #christianity #God #hidden https://lnkd.in/gWFme2WX
