Fall Boot Camp!

Virtual through Zoom
Mondays 10:30-11:30 AM
Open to anyone who wants to improve their spiritual habits

Another thing we’ll be going through is the Fall Boot Camp. This boot camp is for those that want to gain some fundamental knowledge about the Bible which is not covered in the Bible studies. Personally I attended the summer boot camp, and I felt like my Christian walk was revitalized. One thing that really helped me were the scheduled Bible readings. This schedule that we had for reading the book of Acts kept me on track and consistent in my reading, which is definitely something I’ve struggled with before. As a result, I feel like my time over the summer was spent wisely and I strongly encourage you all to join as well. We hope to see you there at these events!

@sjsuchristians. Thank you all for listening, and come check out our instagram page where we have weekly updates of our activities as well as recaps, and announcements of upcoming events that we will have this year! And now Perla will give us an intro to the book of Romans which we will be covering this semester.

LIVE BY FAITH

How do we experience this gospel?

God's operation requires man's cooperation

17: "...as it is written, “The righteous shall live by faith.”

God’s operation requires man’s cooperation- God’s plan and everything He wanted to do has been accomplish, but now He requires us. He needs man to live by faith.

But if man doesn’t trust and believe what Jesus has accomplished, then everything He has done is pointless. Because as you can see from the verse, the righteous shall live by faith. This means that the only way to gain the accomplishment of Jesus is to believe in Him. For example, if your rich uncle dies and leaves your inheritance to you, and you don’t believe and don’t sign for the inheritance, then it isn’t yours. Just like that, everything Jesus has done is not ours, until we believe. It is there, waiting for us. Your belief is your signature. So thus we need to be ones who live by faith. Thank you for listening, and as we read the chapter, I want you all to consider: How can we experience this resurrection power in our school year or daily life? When we’re sad, anxious, stressed, or even angry.
