One of the beautiful aspects of Chrisianity is that we are not called to this journey alone. That is why we gather together with regularity: LIFE Group, Sunday mornings, mid-week services, meeting for coffee, Bible studies, etc. But, what is the point of this frequent gathering. Hopefully, it looks a little something like these 2 scriptures (which will spearhead our discussion for the night):
HEBREWS 10:23-25
Let us hold fast the confession of our hope without wavering, for he who promised is faithful. And let us consider how to stir up one another to love and good works, not neglecting to meet together, as is the habit of some, but encouraging one another, and all the more as you see the Day drawing near.
JUDE 20-23
But you, beloved, building yourselves up in your most holy faith and praying in the Holy Spirit, keep yourselves in the love of God, waiting for the mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ that leads to eternal life. And have mercy on those who doubt; save others by snatching them out of the fire; to others show mercy with fear, hating even the garment stained by the flesh.
My focus for this discussion is that we leave with a better sense of how we can stir up one another to love and good works. Come armed with questions, scriptures, encouragement, practical ‘how-to’s’, and whatever else the Lord puts on your heart as we build ourselves up in our most holy faith.
Can’t wait to see you all,
