The David Spoon Experience 3-14-23 Part 2
1) Have we ever experienced people getting mad at us? Well, I have, and I’m sure you have too. This is where our Christian faith is examined by all of the people around us, plus the heavenly hosts. We take a glimpse back into the Book of Acts. And check out Steven. He was so blessed to be the first actual martyr of the New Testament church that his name will always be honored. He will always be thought of as a standout follower of Christ. But how he handled adversity may give him the most distinctiveness as being Christ-like, compared to anybody else In the New Testament. Except for Jesus. That’s pretty good company to keep.
2) I have a DDD that I have written. It is really good material. However, when someone wiser than me writes on the same subject, I defer to their wisdom. In this case, it is my honor to defer to my brother, Pastor Ray Bentley. He teaches one of the most important principles in the Christian walk. For me, this has been THE game changer. The title of his devotional is. called The Most Crucial Battleground. Guess where this fight takes place.
3) Bragging has to do with pride. Pride has a connection to fame and acknowledgment. Listen to these music verses: Fame (fame) makes a man take things over, Fame (fame) lets him lose hard to swallow, Fame (fame) puts you there where things are hollow, Fame (fame). Written by a Christian. Probably not. Still true? Absolutely.
