May 15, 2010 -Holiness/Santidad

Image
On May 15, 2010 , we invited a special speaker to share the word of God that God himself had placed in her heart. Her name: Odelaysis Saco . She is one of the intercessors of our church, Jesus Vive Hoy. Her topic: Holiness/sanctify (in spanish – santidad). Odelaysis started off with a powerful statement: “WHEN I AM MADE WHOLE IN CHRIST, I WILL NOT LOOK FOR EXTERNAL THINGS TO SATISFY MY INTERNAL DESIRES.” But we ask ourselves, what does it mean to be made whole? She explained that WHOLE implies that nothing has been omitted, ignored, abated, or taken away. It also means to be healed, redeemed, and saved completely, Therefore, when you are whole in Jesus Christ, there is no room for darkness. Romans 7: 15-17 (TNIV) it says “I do not understand what I do. For what I want to do I do not do, but what I hate I do. 16 And if I do what I do not want to do, I agree that the law is good. 17 As it is, it is no longer I myself who do it, but it is sin living in me.” Our sinful nature will auto...

1st c2C Bible Challenge

Image
Last Saturday, c2C had its 1st Bible Challenge!!!! We had a wonderful time, full of laughter and tears (tears from the laughter of course!). THE SET UP: • 2 TEAMS (MEN VS WOMEN) • Approx. 40 questions based on anything from things covered during our last ten c2c meeting teachings to what type of food we ate during one of our outings to challenging Bible verses/topics discussed by our Special Speakers. • PRIZES INCLUDED!!!!! (CHEAP ONES BUT THEY ARE PRIZES :)!!!) So, we asked both of our teams to choose a name for their team. After many rebuttals between the men and the women, in their pursue to accomplish their difficult task of choosing a team name (names thrown out in the open like: “VENCEDORAS” for the ladies and the men coming back at them with oh yeah then we are “MAS QUE VENCEDORES”), they were finally able to settle to the following: the men: REAL MEN LOVE JESUS! (Very originally LONG ;) LOL … BUT I do have to agree IT WAS POWERFUL). Definition of the name and reason for ...

Lesson 3: I AM PROPERTY OF GOD/I AM A SOLDIER OF GOD

Image
On Saturday, May 1, 2010 , Ruben continued his lesson and finished up on the book “Who I am in Christ” by wrapping up KEY POINTS # 2 –8. But for the matter of this blog, we will focus on Key Point # 2 – I AM PROPERTY OF GOD (1 John 5:19-20) and # 8 - I AM A SOLDIER OF GOD. KEY POINT # 2- He started by defining the word property as something that is bought, something you work for, something that belongs to you/own, or something you have dominion of. He used THE PERFECT example : Gods greatest demonstration of love, giving His son Jesus Christ for our salvation. What does this mean? Well…, in this act of sacrifice, God purchase OUR life in the cross. Thereby, making us only His and because of that, He has the authority to rule over our life. Once we understand that our life belongs to God then, we will understand that we need to consult with Him in everything we plan or want to do and every decision we make will be based on Him. Does it matter the type of decision ? Of course not! ...
