Monday Morning Devotion 10.24.22

Today we looked at 1 Corinthians 11:17-22. In this passage the apostle spends some time chastising the Christians at Corinth for how their divisiveness does not allow for the right spirit to be present at the Lord’s Supper.

Today in our Monday devotion from Bethany ARP we looked at Hebrews 5:5-11. In today’s passage we talked about superiority of Jesus Christ as the High Priest and what the Father did in giving Him that authority.

Remembering the goodness of God and the assurance found only in His promises are a great help to the facing of our day-to-day problems.

For our Monday devotion from Bethany ARP we took a look at Ezra 4:1-5 as we see an example of how the civil magistrate is to protect and defend the church of the Lord Jesus Christ as she goes about her work.

Our word for today was “Synod”. In Acts 15 the Apostles and Elders gathered at Jerusalem to figure out how to handle an issue in the church. Men still do this, and in the ARP our annual gathering is called a “Synod”. We helpfully define that for you and explain a little bit of the context.

Today in our devotional we looked at the advantages of life in Christ vs. the ties of the old covenant found in Moses.
