SIMPLICITY IN CHRIST
2 Corinthians 11:3 But I fear, lest somehow, as
the serpent deceived Eve by his craftiness, so
your minds may be corrupted from the simplicity
that is in Christ.
Luke 2:6 So it was, that while they were there,
the days were completed for her to be delivered.
7 And she brought forth her firstborn Son, and
wrapped Him in swaddling cloths, and laid Him in
a manger, because there was no room for them in
the inn.
Matthew 13:55 Is not this the carpenter's son? is
not his mother called Mary? and his brethren,
James, and Joses, and Simon, and Judas?
Mark 1:11 "You are My beloved Son, in whom I
am well pleased."
Luke 15:1 Then all the tax collectors and the
sinners drew near to Him to hear Him. 2 And the
Pharisees and scribes complained, saying, "This
Man receives sinners and eats with them."
Mark 12:35 Then Jesus answered and said, while
He taught in the temple, "How is it that the
scribes say that the Christ is the Son of David?
36 "For David himself said by the Holy Spirit: 'The
LORD said to my Lord, "Sit at My right hand, Till I
make Your enemies Your footstool." ' 37
"Therefore David himself calls Him 'Lord'; how is
He then his Son?" And the common people heard
Him gladly.
1 Corinthians 15:1 Moreover, brethren, I declare
to you the gospel which I preached to you, which
also you received and in which you stand, 2 by
which also you are saved, if you hold fast that
word which I preached to you -- unless you
believed in vain. 3 For I delivered to you first of
all that which I also received: that Christ died for
our sins according to the Scriptures, 4 and that
He was buried, and that He rose again the third
day according to the Scriptures,
1 Corinthians 15:12 Now if Christ is preached that He
has been raised from the dead, how do some among
you say that there is no resurrection of the dead? 13
But if there is no resurrection of the dead, then Christ
is not risen. 14 And if Christ is not risen, then our
preaching is empty and your faith is also empty. 15
Yes, and we are found false witnesses of God,
because we have testified of God that He raised up
Christ, whom He did not raise up -- if in fact the dead
do not rise. 16 For if the dead do not rise, then Christ
is not risen. 17 And if Christ is not risen, your faith is
futile; you are still in your sins! 18 Then also those
who have fallen asleep in Christ have perished. 19 If
in this life only we have hope in Christ, we are of all
men the most pitiable.
Acts 2:38 Then Peter said to them, "Repent, and
let every one of you be baptized in the name of
Jesus Christ for the remission of sins; and you
shall receive the gift of the Holy Spirit. 39 "For
the promise is to you and to your children, and to
all who are afar off, as many as the Lord our God
will call." 40 And with many other words he
testified and exhorted them, saying, "Be saved
from this perverse generation." 41 Then those
who gladly received his word were baptized; and
that day about three thousand souls were added
to them.
Mark 16:16 "He who believes and is baptized will
be saved; but he who does not believe will be
condemned.
Colossians 1:18 And He is the head of the body,
the church, who is the beginning, the firstborn
from the dead, that in all things He may have the
preeminence.
Ephesians 5:23 For the husband is head of the
wife, as also Christ is head of the church; and He
is the Savior of the body.
1 Corinthians 12:13 For by one Spirit we were all
baptized into one body -- whether Jews or
Greeks, whether slaves or free -- and have all
been made to drink into one Spirit.
Acts 2:47 …And the Lord added to the church
daily those who were being saved.
Philippians 1:1 Paul and Timothy, bondservants
of Jesus Christ, To all the saints in Christ Jesus
who are in Philippi, with the bishops and
deacons:
John 4:24 "God is Spirit, and those who worship
Him must worship in spirit and truth."
Five elements of worship:
(1 Cor. 14)
1. We sing praises to God through song.
2. We read the scriptures and study them in the
form of teaching or preaching
3. We pray to God
4. Giving of our money (1 Cor. 16:1-2)
5. Partaking of the Lord’s Supper (Acts 20:7)
Men take the lead in worship (1 Cor. 14; 1 Tim. 2)
2 Timothy 3:16 All Scripture is given by
inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine,
for reproof, for correction, for instruction in
righteousness, 17 that the man of God may be
complete, thoroughly equipped for every good
work.
John 20:30 And truly Jesus did many other signs
in the presence of His disciples, which are not
written in this book; 31 but these are written
that you may believe that Jesus is the Christ, the
Son of God, and that believing you may have life
in His name.
Ephesians 3:3 how that by revelation He made
known to me the mystery (as I have briefly
written already, 4 by which, when you read, you
may understand my knowledge in the mystery of
Christ), 5 which in other ages was not made
known to the sons of men, as it has now been
revealed by the Spirit to His holy apostles and
prophets:
2 Timothy 3:2 For men will be lovers of
themselves, lovers of money, boasters, proud,
blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful,
unholy, 3 unloving, unforgiving, slanderers,
without self-control, brutal, despisers of good, 4
traitors, headstrong, haughty, lovers of pleasure
rather than lovers of God, 5 having a form of
godliness but denying its power. And from such
people turn away! 6 For of this sort are those
who creep into households and make captives of
gullible women loaded down with sins, led away
by various lusts, 7 always learning and never
able to come to the knowledge of the truth.
Philippians 2:1 Therefore if there is any
consolation in Christ, if any comfort of love, if any
fellowship of the Spirit, if any affection and
mercy, 2 fulfill my joy by being like-minded,
having the same love, being of one accord, of one
mind. 3 Let nothing be done through selfish
ambition or conceit, but in lowliness of mind let
each esteem others better than himself. 4 Let
each of you look out not only for his own
interests, but also for the interests of others. 5
Let this mind be in you which was also in Christ
Jesus,
1 John 5:3 For this is the love of God, that we
keep His commandments. And His
commandments are not burdensome.
