Simplicity in Christ #6

2018 AYC Ladies Classes

Psa 56:1-13. Simplicity means purity (2Co 11:3). Double-mindedness is the opposite of single-mindedness (Jam 1:8). "As" and "so" gives balance and clarity to the christian life. How can we find it? Col 2:6 says that our Christian walk is as simple as we received Him -- by Faith through Grace. The Greek "paralambano" mean receive a gift (Rom 10:17, Rom 6:23, 1Jo 5:11-12). "So walk" links to the past but also to what we possess (Rom 8:29-30, Joh 1:12, 2Co 5:17). "Look to the Rock from which you are cut" (Isa 51:1). "So walk in Him" is future. If we're trying to live the Christian life, we're not. "...If righteousness comes through the law, Christ died in vain" (Gal 2:21). Philosophy can rob us (Col 2:8). Rules and regulations don't make us spiritual (Col 2:21-23). (1) walk in fellowship (Eph 2:10, 1Jo 1:7, Amo 3:3); (2) walk in imitation of Christ (Eph 4:1) worthy means "equal weight"; we are called Christian and to that we are to walk worthy (1Co 11:1); (3) We are to walk in the power of the Spirit (Eph 5:1-2) in order to "walk in love" (Gal 5:16-22); (4) "Walk in the light" means to walk in obedience to the Word of God (Eph 5:8);
