reading God's word

How is Joy Connected to an Eternal Perspective?

“A believer should count it a wasted day when he (she) does not learn something new from or is not more deeply enriched by the truth of God’s Word. Scripture is food for the believer’s growth and power— and there is no other….The most noble are still those who search the Scriptures daily (Acts 17:11)” Quoted from John MacArthur’s study on 1 Peter. Connect these thoughts with John 15:11. “These things I have spoken to you, that My joy may remain in you, and that your joy may be full.” Who could not want such a life as this? So simple, but so seldom believed. Does this verse describe your life?

Let’s encourage one another this Thursday morning in believing and living in a way that brings great glory to God and great joy to our souls. Our discussion will begin on page 18-question 5.
