									<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Great post, if you went to prison for every bad choice you make, I guess we would all be in jail. It is important for us to understand that, in God&#8217;s eyes, there are no &#8220;big&#8221; sins or &#8220;little&#8221; sins. All sin is equally abhorrent to Him. Romans 6:23a tells us &#8220;For the wages of sin <i>is </i>death;&#8230;&#8221;</p>

Spiritual growth is the increase in the spiritual maturity which results in the development of Christ-like spiritual qualities (spiritual fruit) in the believer. Evidences of spiritual&hellip;</p>

key verse is one of my favourite verses: <b>Matthew 16 18</b>“And<br />

church; and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it.” The rock that the<br />

									<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>“One plus One Equals more than Two”- In this lesson, we learn that to “witness” is to tell what you have seen, heard, or experienced. The church has “clergy” who are the “professional” pastors or ministers, and then “laity” or “laymen” who are the people of God outside of the leaders. Since the inception of the church, the idea was that every&hellip;</p>

Whenever Satan attacks us with negative thoughts, it is important to remember this truth &#8220;The more you reaffirm who you are in Christ, the more your behaviour will begin to reflect your true identity&#8221;, and Satan will flee from you.
