When the Bible talks about “the world” what does that mean? We live in a world full of people. We live in a world full of trouble. God created the world (the earth and everything in it), God so loved the world (the people of the world), but we are to not love the world (worldly affairs and systems which oppose God; I think that’s what is meant when Jesus says that we are in the world but not of the world). Something like that. Let us see what God’s word has to say about it.

Let the Children Come to Me
God has high regard for children. Throughout scripture He speaks of children often, that we are to love them, care for them and even be like them. He calls those who believe children of God. He sent His Son as a Child, to become the Savior of the world.
Mark 10:14-16
“Let the little children come to Me, and do not forbid them; for of such is the kingdom of God. Assuredly, I say to you, whoever does not receive the kingdom of God as a little child will by no means enter it.” And He took them up in His arms, laid His hands on them, and blessed them.

New Covenant Living
I was debating on the title for this study between “New Covenant Living” and “Practical Christianity.” There is a lot in Hebrews 13 about how we are to conduct ourselves as Christians. It’s kind of a “now that I am saved, what do I do now?” instruction manual. Of course, it is not the only one. The New Testament is full of letters on how we are to live as a child of God. There have been a couple good studies on Hebrews that I went through that taught me a lot on this book, one by J.D. Graeer and one by Pete Briscoe. You can probably find both on YouTube or just google them. Anyways, some of this comes from notes I have from watching their studies. I hope this will strengthen you, encourage you and help you to grow in your walk with the Lord. May God bless you always! Continue reading “New Covenant Living”
