Topic: Our Eternal Security In Christ


Sunday April 17th Bible Study

Question: Are we secure in Christ?
To feel eternal security in Christ we don’t only have to receive gifts from the Holy Spirit but be led by it.
To be led by the Holy Spirit means we have to let Christ live in us and allow flesh be crucified with Christ
Read Galatians 2:20
We all know what to do as Christians when filled by the Holy Spirit but we refuse to pay the prize for the Holy Spirit to lead us
Read: Romans 6: 5-14
To be led by the Holy Spirit and to know the Holy Spirit, we have to allow God’s will to overtake our will. Our will may lead us to sin whiles God’s will through the Holy Spirit that lives in us wont.
The Lord’s Prayer teaches us that ‘let thy will be done on earth’
The only way we can allow that will as Christ’s children is to resurrect with Christ from death and allow sin to die
Read: Romans 6 19-23 and Romans 8 1-2
We have to understand that to sin or not depend on us. Through the death of Christ we have the means to be led by the Holy Spirit and grace
The choice to strengthen our eternal security is to make the right choice of allowing the grace of God to be with us and to be ready to pay the prize by allowing the flesh to die to the desires of the world.
We also need to allow the Holy Spirit to direct us in all our ways.

Amen
