Below is a collection of principles coming out of the lectures over the past couple of months (lessons 14 to 24). Some are simple and profound, some new, some hard:
- It is impossible to have relationship with God apart from Jesus.
- Upon confession of sin, believers are cleansed and purified through the blood of Jesus.
- Believers are set apart for God, and how we choose to live matters.
- Consecration to God means being set apart for His work; when your work is done, He takes you home.
- To worship and serve God His way brings joy.
- Our actions are motivated by the attitude of our heart.
- God's people must still train their minds to remember Him daily.
- God is holy and cannot tolerate sin in His presence.
- Jesus was sacrificed once to take away the sins of all who believe in Him.
- God's instructions are designed to bring Him glory and to benefit others.
- In God's economy, obedience brings blessing and disobedience brings punishment.
- God keeps His word, and so should His people.
- Faith in God is what conquers complaining.
- Faith in God is proved by trusting in His provision and going to Him with our struggles.
- Sooner or later, God will vindicate His faithful servants.
- As God's people, we are called to measure our giants against God and not ourselves.
- True faith is man's weakness leaning on God's strength.
- Continued disobedience only brings more trouble.
- The temptation to sin is no respecter of position, age or spiritual maturity.
- Let God pick your battles for you.
- God's people can trust Him to be faithful, even when we are not.
- God delights in responding to the prayers of His people.
- Eternal life and the security it brings can only be found in Jesus; it is not something that can be earned.
- God is faithful and always delivers on His promises.
- God cannot be manipulated.
- No one can hinder the plans of God.
- Idols are anything people use as a substitute for God.
