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.

Isaiah 9:6 by Robert Dean
Christmas! What is it to you? A time of happiness and thankfulness or is it filled with stress and debt and even despair? Listen to this lesson to learn about a time that parallels our own, when everything was collapsing and people were despondent. Evil was rampant in the land and demonic wisdom ruled. In the midst of this darkness came a man named Isaiah with an astonishing message of hope and true cheer. He told of a coming Messiah named Emmanuel, meaning God with us. Learn four titles given to the Messiah and the rich meaning of each which we can apply in our own lives now. Understand the importance of accepting the Messiah, the Lord Jesus Christ, and His work on the Cross to save us from our sins. See how you can be assured that your life counts and that you can enjoy the true meaning of Christmas as you learn and apply the Word of God.
