Stipulations
I will be your leader and as such I will vigilantly prepare myself and be available to meet your needs in equipping you for service.
I will also implore you to follow me as I follow Christ.
See what I value, see how I use my time, see how I treat others, see how I value Christ.
See how my life bears the gospel.
Ephesians 4:16-25
(v.16)
Your connection to the body results in growth individually, which translates to the community
(v.17-19)
Our individual “walks” with Christ necessitates usefulness of our minds to Christ, knowledge and understanding of God’s life, and soft hearts toward God.
(v.20-21) Possessing these characteristics requires our learning and being taught
(v.22-23)
Our learning and being taught allows us to be renewed in the spirit of our minds
(v.24)
Our renewed self is created in the righteousness and holiness of the truth you adhere to
(v.25)
This allows us to be able to lay aside living falsely and speak truth to one another, because we are dependent on one another

Takeaways
Learning requires active engagement
Requires active engagement
This means you need to participate in your own learning more than you currently do
The stakes in your learning to live the Christian life are much higher than in most educational environments
Your learning is closer to survival training than prepping for a test.
You have 2 Goals
To know God's truth
To obey God
This is a two-step process that is facilitated through the Holy Spirit
Indicatives and Imperatives
Indicatives may consist of facts, concepts, paradigms
Imperatives are commands that follow the indicatives
Examples: ; ;
Our issue is typically not in the command, but the reason for the obedience.
We don't really know why we should do this and that.
We never really see or know.
You need to want to know more…
Smaller children always ask why.
We seem to quit asking why so much and just don’t obey.
The reason that we don’t obey is because we don’t “understand” the reason.
Fellowship
You will intend to seek first his Kingdom and be part of this fellowship.
I want you to practice love as best you know how and learn how to be 'practioners of faith".
In want you to actively engage your spiritual life and look to Renae, myself and all others you are in fellowship with to help you with whatever you need to that end.
1 John 3:
Whomever does not want to do that is a visitor to us, and are welcome to join our fellowship at any time in the future, but is currently outside of that relationship.
1 John 1:3-7
So there are then three options:
(v.3)
We have fellowship through the things we believe, through what is proclaimed to us
(v.4)
Our fellowship is also with the Father and the Son
(1) Not be a part of class
(v.6)
Our fellowship with God and one another is based on our obedience
(2) Be a part of class but not be in fellowship with those that seek that
"The existence of any Christian life together depends on whether it succeeds at the right time in bringing out the ability to distinguish between a human ideal and God's reality, between spiritual and human community.
- Bonhoeffer, Life Together
(3) Be in fellowship
