In this episode, idols and idolatry part 2
We review what an idol is and what is the most common form of idolatry practiced today.
What is the difference between a “confessor” of Jesus and a follower of Jesus?
Does Jesus forbid us from having possessions or money?
Why did Jesus require the young wealthy ruler to give away all his wealth and then come and follow him?
What is the “one thing” keeping you from becoming a follower of Jesus?
Light exposes what is in the dark, truth from God’s word and the guidance of the Holy Spirit reveals the hidden things within our hearts. God brings these things to us so we can “recognize” them and receive freedom from the lies and deceptions of the devil.
To “confess” means to acknowledge what you have done wrong as sin to God, ask for forgiveness and then “repent” which means to “forsake and turn away from it”. When we do this, what does proverbs 28:13 promises us if we follow these steps?
To “renounce” means to verbally declare that you are no longer in agreement with something.
After one “renounces” it is usually followed by making a clean break from the offensive practices that they were associated with.
What did the new believers in Acts 19:18-20 make a clean break from?
How did they demonstrate that they no longer wanted anything to do with those previous things of their past?
Before we can “resist” the devil (stand against or oppose him) what must we do first according to James 4:7
How did Jesus deal with demon spirits?
What does the word “rebuke” mean?
According to Mark 16:15-17 do those who are born again believers (followers of Jesus) have the authority to rebuke and cast out devils?
What were the disciples of Jesus excited about in Luke 10:17-20?
Did Jesus disagree with what they said about how the demons were subject to them?
