LEARNER, FOLLOWER, AND DISCIPLER
Isaiah 50:4 The Lord God has given me the tongue of a teacher, that I may know how to sustain the weary with a word. Morning by morning he wakens—wakens my ear to listen as those who are taught.

HEAVENLY WISDOM

Make A Difference
Isaiah 1:16-17 “Wash and make yourselves clean. Take your evil deeds out of my sight; stop doing wrong. Learn to do right; seek justice. Defend the oppressed. Take up the cause of the fatherless; plead the case of the widow.” Isaiah 1:16-17, NIV It's easy to say that you're a believer in Christ.

Even within Christianity, denominations will come and go because that is not what makes up the kingdom of God. The kingdom of G

Identified By Christ
1 Corinthians 6:17 “But whoever is united with the Lord is one with him in spirit.” 1 Corinthians 6:17 NIV The third part of the Trinity is the Holy Spirit, and we are human spirits, and when regeneration occurs there is a fusing of identity.
