Steamboat Lake.
Run away from infantile indulgence. Run after mature righteousness—faith, love, peace—joining those who are in honest and serious prayer before God. Refuse to get involved in inane discussions; they always end up in fights. God's servant must not be argumentative, but a gentle listener and a teacher who keeps cool, working firmly but patiently with those who refuse to obey. You never know how or when God might sober them up with a change of heart and a turning to the truth, enabling them to escape the Devil's trap, where they are caught and held captive, forced to run his errands.
Gently instruct those who oppose the truth. Perhaps God will change those people’s hearts, and they will learn the truth.
[ God Gave His Word ] When God made his promise to Abraham, he backed it to the hilt, putting his own reputation on the line. He said, "I promise that I'll bless you with everything I have—bless and bless and bless!" Abraham stuck it out and got everything that had been promised to him. When people make promises, they guarantee them by appeal to some authority above them so that if there is any question that they'll make good on the promise, the authority will back them up. When God wanted to guarantee his promises, he gave his word, a rock-solid guarantee—God can't break his word. And because his word cannot change, the promise is likewise unchangeable.
Every good and perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of the heavenly lights, who does not change like shifting shadows
God also bound himself with an oath, so that those who received the promise could be perfectly sure that he would never change his mind.
He will take our weak mortal bodies and change them into glorious bodies like his own, using the same power with which he will bring everything under his control.
2 Timothy 2:22 2 Timothy 2:25 Hebrews 6:13 James 1:17 Hebrews 6:17 Philippians 3:21
The Spirit or God uses the Word of God to change the people of God.
