DO NOT GO BEYOND CHRIST’S TEACHING

2 Cor 8:9   You know that Christ was rich,  but for you he became poor  so that by his becoming poor you might become rich.

John 14:6  I am the way, and the truth, and the life.   The only way to the Father is through  me.

2 John 9 … whoever continues to follow the teaching of Christ has both the Father and the Son.

Eph 2:8-9  I mean you have been saved by grace through believing.  You did not save yourselves; it was a gift from God.

Phil 3:8-9 I think that all things are worth nothing compared with the greatness of knowing Christ Jesus my Lord.  Because of him…… Now I am right with God, not because I followed the law, but because I believed in Christ.    God uses my faith to make me right with him.

Romans 8:2-4 Through Christ Jesus God did what the law could not do.  He sent his own Son to earth with the same human life that others use for sin.  …. God used a human life to destroy sin….   we live following the Spirit.

1 John 4:1-6 … test the spirits to see if they are from God.   Every spirit who confesses that Jesus Christ came to earth as a human is from God.  

1 Cor 2:11-16 we received the Spirit that is from God so that we can know all that God has given us…  But we have the mind of Christ

2 Cor 5:18   All this is from God.   Through Christ,  God made peace between us and himself…

1 Peter 1:21 Through Christ you believe in God, who raised Christ from the dead and gave him glory. So your faith and your hope are in God.

Gal 1:6  God,  by his grace through Christ, called you to become his people.  So I am amazed that you are turning away so quickly and believing something different….

Gal 3:1-3  … you let someone trick you.     Tell me this one thing:    How did you receive the Holy Spirit?   You began your life in Christ by the Spirit.  Now are you trying to make it complete by your own power? That is stupid!!!

Gal 4:6-7  Since you are God’s children,  God sent the Spirit of his Son into your hearts, and the Spirit cries out,  “FATHER”.. ..  God will give you the blessing he promised

Gal 5:4-6  If you try to be made right with God through the law, your life with Christ is over — you have left God’s grace.  

The important thing is faith— the kind of faith that works through love.
