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.

2 Peter 2:5-7 by Robert Dean

What happened in Sodom that caused their destruction? Listen to this lesson to learn that even though they rejected divine principles, God dealt with them in grace before their final judgment. Hear basic foundational mandates that every individual, city, and nation needs to follow to lead stable, prosperous lives. See the development of how mankind takes a downward path as outlined in Romans in order to avoid self destruction.

This lesson includes a special presentation by Mark Perkins and their new ministry to Tahiti. Slides from his presentation are available under the Notes link.
