how much more will hasty feet miss the way!
From Background Notes [BN] for March 8th &
9th written by Pastor Bob Brown:
Contemporary Christian communities
today require solid Bible teaching to remain at the center of Christ's purpose
for his kingdom. Every member of a local congregation should be involved in
small group study...
...becoming more than
"acquainted" with the Bible but saturated with its apostolic
instruction. This was the first element in Luke's profile and for good reason.
Such teaching helps in forming a "word view" that is thoroughly
Christian and counters the surrounding cultural paganism. It means learning
"to think Christianly," an idea rooted in the counsel of thinkers
like C.S. Lewis, Francis Schaeffer, Os Guiness, and Mark Noll, to name a few.
It means to "love the Lord your God with all one's heart, soul, mind, and strength"
(Deuteronomy 6:5) and to "have the mind of Christ" (1 Corinthians
2:16). [BN,4-5]
