Some notes from Sunday school a while back

Christianity is not just over family/church realms. It must apply to every life issue. Religion is not about emotions/feelings. You can’t let your life/spirituality be ruled by emotions. People turn to Pentecostalism when there is an economic downfall. We are gradually being dumbed down. You cannot understand a text without understanding the context. Understand the sentence, you must understand the paragraph, before the paragraph, the chapter etc. We are so dumbed down on the idea of love now-a-days, that that is how we apply our love to God. How are we supposed to know how to truly love God? Imagine a wheel: faith or religion is the center of the wheel, while family, education, legal, etc. are the spokes and the outside is the wheel is Christianity. Lose anything and your wheel will fall apart. Most Christians haven’t thought through these things, so it is a challenge to influence/change them. Capital punishment is Christian. We are not saved by law or Words. We cannot assist with our salvation. It is not our works, but Christ’s.
