They may seem weak in the eyes of the worldly strong. They may seem foolish in the eyes of the worldly wise. But the Gospel message is the power of God unto salvation, and the Gospel means are effectual to salvation. These are the Spiritual instruments given by God with which Christian congregational Spiritual life is nurtured, the Spirit’s tools of grace and growth in grace appointed by God in the Bible.

Sure, people can counsel us on some strategies to overcome sin such as Bible memorization, prayer, accountability partners and providing no opportunity for the flesh, but our primary hope to be victorious is not faith in a technique but rather, 2 Corinthians 3:3, faith in a promise that we have power through “the Spirit of the living God.” Never shall a sin again, if we are truly saved, be able to dominate, enslave or defeat us. By God’s grace through the New Covenant provision of the Holy Spirit, we can rise out of the gutter of sin and stand joyously with the freedom we now have in Christ. We are as Paul said in 2 Corinthians 5:17 completely new creatures!

Doctrine matters. What you believe about God, the gospel, the nature of man, and every major truth addressed in Scripture filters down to every area of your life. You and I will never rise above our view of God and our understanding of His Word.

Thomas Boston, Of the Decrees of God, Commentary on the Shorter Catechism.
For as the sun darts its beams upon a dunghill, and yet is no way defiled by it; so God decrees the permission of sin…yet is not the author of sin.
Thomas Boston, Of the Decrees of God, Commentary on the Shorter Catechism.
Nous restons en Christ en communiquant avec lui, en faisant ce qu'il dit, en vivant par la foi et en nous reliant par amour à la communauté des croyants.

Que la paix des vagues vous accompagne,
La paix profonde de l'air qui circule pour toi,
La paix profonde de la terre tranquille pour toi,
La paix profonde des étoiles brillantes pour toi,
La paix profonde des ombres de la nuit pour toi,
La lune et les étoiles te donnent toujours de la lumière,
La paix profonde du Christ, le Fils de la Paix, pour vous.

Peace of the running waves to you,
Deep peace of the flowing air to you,
Deep peace of the quiet earth to you,
Deep peace of the shining stars to you,
Deep peace of the shades of night to you,
Moon and stars always giving light to you,
Deep peace of Christ, the Son of Peace, to you.

Sinclair Ferguson, Grow in Grace,1989, p. 129.
When we impose man-made regulations upon ourselves (or others) and lose sight of our liberty to do or not do those things which Scripture neither commands nor forbids, we destroy the fruit of the Spirit and we cease to grow (or to allow others to grow).
Sinclair Ferguson, Grow in Grace,1989, p. 129.
Scott Hafemann, Second Corinthians, NIV Application Commentary, Zondervan, 2000, p. 381.
The New Testament does not teach a doctrine of tithing (i.e., the mandatory giving of 10 percent of one’s income). Nor does Paul define what constitutes giving generously. He does not even provide a target number or general guidelines. The only rule is to give freely and generously as an expression of our continuing trust in God’s grace (9:5-8). Paul simply assumes that believers will give all they can to meet as many needs as they can in order to glorify God as much as they can.

The book of Revelation teaches us that before Jesus Christ judges the world at His return “with the sword which [comes] from [His] mouth (19:21), the Lord says He will judge His church also “with the sword of [His] mouth” (2:16). Let’s remember God expects His lampstands to burn brightly for Him in holy witness. Let’s remember that before the world is judged, that “it is time for judgment to [first] begin with the household of God” (1 Peter 4:17).

So what does the Christ-honoring, non-materialistic family look like? They invest primarily in the things that will leave this world with them and as a team they are all on this same pursuit. They experience freedom and more time for the things most important because they have limited resources that they own in order not to be owned by them. They experience constant joy because the only source of joy they expect is from the Lord. They do not need to have stuff to impress others because the only person they seek to please is the Lord. They have no compelling love for the shadows of the world because their hearts see the true Substance, the beauty of God’s marvelous light. They have their priorities right: things are to be used and people are to be loved. They are content people following Christ and therefore have a great family because their mutual trust is not in material things which will let us down, but in the One who always delivers.

John MacArthur, 1 Corinthiens, Moody, 1984, p. 453-454.
How believers handle their money is inextricably related to the depth of their worship. Whether we put money in the offering plate or not, weekly worship should remind us of our continual stewardship of the possessions that Lord has entrusted to us. If we do not give properly we cannot worship properly.
John MacArthur, 1 Corinthians, Moody, 1984, p. 453-454.
Sam Storms, Pleasures Evermore : The Life-Changing Power of Knowing God, 2000, p. 258.
[Job’s three friends] simply assumed that sin and suffering are always inexorably bound together in a cause/effect relationship. Whenever and wherever there is one, there is the other. Notwithstanding what they knew to be true about Job’s character, they refused to budge. They refused to allow the possibility that on occasion, as mysterious as it might seem, a righteous man might suffer greatly.
Sam Storms, Pleasures Evermore: The Life-Changing Power of Knowing God, 2000, p. 258.
Le croyant qui étudie cette vie du Christ comme le modèle et la promesse de ce que la sienne peut être, apprend à comprendre comment le "Sans moi vous ne pouvez rien faire" n'est que le précurseur du "Je peux tout faire par le Christ qui me fortifie".

"COMME LE CHRIST DANS LE PÈRE"
The believer who studies this life of Christ as the pattern and the promise of what his may be, learns to understand how the “Without me ye can do nothing” is but the forerunner of “I can do all things through Christ who strengtheneth me.”

“AS CHRIST IN THE FATHER”
William Gurnall
If thou dost not stumble at this stone, the devil hath another at hand to throw in the way. He is not so unskillful a fowler as to go with one single shot into the field; and therefore expect him, as soon as he hath discharged one, and missed thee, to let fly at thee with a second.
William Gurnall
Si on avait voulu inventer la Résurrection, toute l’insistance se serait portée sur la pleine corporéité, sur le fait d’être immédiatement reconnaissable et, en plus, on aurait peut-être imaginé un pouvoir particulier comme signe distinctif du Ressuscité.
