Knowing Them By Their Fruit...Written by Joyce C. Lock
Continued from page 1
Scripture instructs us to compare spiritual things with spiritual things, rightly dividing words of truth. Deliberately written so lost wouldn't understand it, you'll find real truths in hidden parts - as God reveals them to you. Additionally, when someone speaks in Spirit touching your spirit ... you can believe God, knowing He dwells within them and you. © by Joyce C.

Acceptance by God (His unconditional love) cannot be earned. It was His gift to us from moment we received Him into our heart (Ep. 1:6). It's already been given! Though, like any gift, it isn't ours until received. However, if we want God's acceptance (approval) and divine favor (blessings) in and as a result of our service, our works must be our gift from heart (II Co. 10:18, Ac. 10:35) ... as God can't be impressed without heart (I Sa. 16:7). © by Joyce C.
