Galatians 5:16-23 teaches that at any moment we are either walking by the Holy Spirit or according to the sin nature. Walking by the Spirit, enjoying fellowship with God, walking in the light are virtually synonymous. During these times, the Holy Spirit is working in us to illuminate our minds to the truth of Scripture and to challenge us to apply what we learn. But when we sin, we begin to live based on the sin nature. Our works do not count for eternity. The only way to recover is to confess (admit, acknowledge) our sin to God the Father and we are instantly forgiven, cleansed, and recover our spiritual walk (1 John 1:9). Please make sure you are walking by the Spirit before you begin your Bible study, so it will be spiritually profitable.

Acts 3:1 by Robert Dean
Maybe the kingdom of God might seem to some to be just another abstract concept in the Bible, but they would be greatly mistaken. The kingdom of God is one of those concepts that is frequently misunderstood, much to the detriment of one's understanding of God, the plan of God, prophecy, Jesus, not to mention its misuse by various utopic schemes that impact social and political theory. In this lesson we step back to re-examine what the Bible teaches about this important truth, so that we can better understand the message in Acts chapters 1-8.
