Here is a summary of what we will be talking about at the upcoming Crowded House this Sunday.
God Speaks. As a result we should...
1. Come to Scripture prayerfully. Before reading and studying we must pray for the Holy Spirit to teach us his Word.
2. Come to Scripture in community. We should actively serve and participate in a local church to learn with and from other Christians.
3. Come to Scripture attentively. Listen to what Scripture is saying.
4. Come to Scripture humbly. Understanding we need to have our beliefs, desires, and opinions changed to be in line with Scripture.
5. Come to Scripture devotedly. Memorizing scripture.
6. Come to Scripture meditatively. Filling our minds with deep thinking on the things of God.
7. Come to Scripture for life transformation, not mental transformation. Our goal should not be knowledge of change to be more like Jesus.
8. Come to Scripture for relational purposes. We want to read Scripture so that we might love and know Jesus not get something else from him.
9. Come to Scripture repentantly. We should come willing to change.
10. Come to Scripture historically. People have gone before us. Learn from trusted Bible teachers.
Take a moment this week and talk about what we've talked about!
