ZEAL (2)

(Message by Tanny Keng)

1. Bible Topic

a) To learn what the Bible has to say on a variety of topics affecting our everyday lives, we may find what we are looking for here.

2. Zeal

a) Being zealous for God, means we take part in suffering for His sake. It's in the Bible, Psalm 69:9, NKJV. "Because zeal for Your house has eaten me up, and the reproaches of those who reproach You have fallen on me."

b) Zeal for God is being single-minded. It’s in the Bible, James 4:8, NKJV. “Draw near to God and He will draw near to you. Cleanse your hands, you sinners; and purify your hearts, you double-minded.”

c) Be zealous and seek the salvation of souls in all that you do. It’s in the Bible, Ecclesiastes 11:5-6, NKJV. “As you do not know what is the way of the wind, or how the bones grow in the womb of her who is with child, So you do not know the works of God who makes everything. In the morning sow your seed, and in the evening do not withhold your hand; for you do not know which will prosper, either this or that, or whether both alike will be good.”

d) Christian zeal is not loud and noisy, but humbly grows in faithfulness. It’s in the Bible, 1 Peter 1:5-8, NKJV. “But also for this very reason, giving all diligence, add to your faith virtue, to virtue knowledge, to knowledge self-control, to self-control perseverance, to perseverance godliness, to godliness brotherly kindness, and to brotherly kindness love."


The End ...
