Our Father, who art in heaven,
Hallowed be thy Name. Thy Kingdom come. Thy will be done, On earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread. And forgive us our trespasses, As we forgive them that trespass against us. And lead us not into temptation, But deliver us from evil. For thine is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory, for ever and ever. Amen. Read the bibleBible websites

Bible Study Helps (mnemonic devices):
S – Scripture Read a short Bible passage out loud and/or write it out. You may discover something new. O – Observation Examine the text; what do you see in the verses you’re reading?
I – Interpretation Interpretation is asking: what does this Bible passage mean, particularly to the first audience? Although we can understand some of that by simply reading the passage, the correct interpretation won’t always come naturally. How do we interpret? First we can look at the immediate Bible passage context; then, the verses or chapters before or after may give us more understanding. The Bible book as a whole will, as well. But sometimes we still won’t know enough to understand and interpret properly. Bible dictionaries, encyclopedias and commentaries are key to interpreting correctly. Meaning studied, learned scholars of the languages and history. A – Application Apply God’s Word to your life in a practical way. This is the part where you personalize your study of Scripture. As you read over the text, how does it apply to you? Is there a specific action you need to take or a confession you need to make? If it’s an action, try to make it SMART: specific, measurable, attainable, realistic, and time-bound. Application Notes:
P – Prayer Pray that the Scripture you just studied will take root in your heart and produce good works. If something has been revealed to you from God’s Word, pray about it. Confess any sin that has been revealed during this time of study. Praise God for His attributes and thank Him for His Word and His goodness in your life. Also, ask the Holy Spirit to help you in discipleship, and for strength and courage to help you apply these truths. Is there a S.P.E.C. in the Passage?
The AEIOU of Bible Reading
Questions to ask during a Bible Study:
What did the Scripture mean back then? What does it mean now? Who is the author? Who was the intended audience? What was the author's intent? How does the passage relate to the Bible as a whole? How does it connect to the Gospel? Where did this passage take place? What was going on then? How is this Bible verse relevant? Why did this happen? How can I apply it to my life? What does it mean to me?

Certainly it won't appeal to everyone nor all denominations, but the basics are here For example: gratitude, blessings, the beauty of creation, God's guidance, God's protection (refuge and strength), hope, forgiveness, grace, made in His image, and more). Read More: Title: "The Boundless Grace of Our Heavenly Father" Dear Brothers and Sisters, Today, let us gather with hearts overflowing with gratitude as we reflect on the boundless grace of our Heavenly Father. In the tapestry of our lives, His presence weaves through every moment, every joy, and every trial, guiding us with His unwavering love and tender care. As we look around us, we see the miracles of His creation, from the majestic mountains to the gentle whispers of the wind. Each sunrise paints a masterpiece across the sky, reminding us of the artist behind it all—our God, who crafted every detail with purpose and perfection. In the depths of our souls, we feel His presence, a steady anchor in the stormy seas of life. He is our refuge and our strength, a constant source of hope in times of despair. Even when we falter, He extends His hand to lift us up, guiding us along the path of righteousness. How blessed are we, dear friends, to be called children of the Most High! In His infinite wisdom, He chose us before the foundation of the world, lavishing upon us the riches of His grace. Despite our flaws and imperfections, He sees the beauty within us, for we are fearfully and wonderfully made in His image. Consider the countless blessings that He bestows upon us each day—the air that fills our lungs, the food that nourishes our bodies, the love of family and friends that surrounds us. Every breath is a gift from His hand, a reminder of His boundless generosity and provision. But perhaps the greatest gift of all is the gift of salvation through His Son, Jesus Christ. Through His sacrifice on the cross, we are redeemed and reconciled to God, welcomed into His eternal kingdom as heirs of salvation. What greater love could there be than this, that He would lay down His life for us? Let us, therefore, rejoice and give thanks for the goodness of our God, whose love knows no bounds and whose mercy endures forever. May we live each day in grateful obedience to His will, shining as beacons of His light in a world that so desperately needs His love. As we depart from this place, let us carry with us the assurance of His presence, knowing that He goes before us and walks beside us every step of the way. And may we never cease to proclaim the greatness of our God, declaring His glory to all the earth. In the name of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit, amen. Read Less
PrayerACTS Prayer method
ACTS Prayer Acronym
A – Adoration “You are worthy, our Lord and God, to receive glory and honor and power, for you created all things, and by your will they were created and have their being.” (Revelation 4:11) Start your prayers with praise. Praise God for who He is. Worship Him and acknowledge His greatness. Praise keeps your eyes fixed on God. Verses:
C- Confession Whoever conceals their sins does not prosper, but the one who confesses and renounces them finds mercy. (Proverbs 28:13) Tell God you're sorry for where you've fallen short, where your actions haven't lived up to His expectations, where you haven't done something you should have. Then ask for forgiveness and for help to do better next time. Consider what you've done and left undone. God is ready to forgive you and apply His grace and mercy, but you first need to confess and ask for forgiveness. T – Thanksgiving Let them give thanks to the Lord for his unfailing love and his wonderful deeds for mankind, for he satisfies the thirsty and fills the hungry with good things. (Psalm 107:8-9) Give thanks to God, the Giver of all good gifts (James 1:17). It is His will that we give thanks in all circumstances (1 Thess. 5:18). Tell God "thank you" for His work in your life. Give thanks for all His blessings bestowed upon you. Gratitude helps shift our thinking from what’s wrong to what is right. S – Supplication Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus. (Philippians 4:6 – 7) Ask God for specific requests for yourself and others. Share what's on your heart, and where you need the Lord's help, guidance, and healing. Pray about the needs of others.

1 The LORD is my shepherd; I shall not want.
2 He makes me lie down in green pastures. He leads me beside still waters. 3 He restores my soul. He leads me in paths of righteousness for his name’s sake. 4 Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil, for you are with me; your rod and your staff, they comfort me. 5 You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies; you anoint my head with oil; my cup overflows. 6 Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life, and I shall dwell in the house of the LORD forever.

An Exposition of the Westminster Confession of Faith - https://reformed.org/documents/shaw/ the apostle's creed
I believe in God, the Father almighty,
maker of heaven and earth; And in Jesus Christ, his only Son, our Lord; who was conceived by the Holy Ghost, born of the Virgin Mary, suffered under Pontius Pilate, was crucified, dead, and buried. He descended into hell. The third day he rose again from the dead. He ascended into heaven, and sitteth on the right hand of God the Father almighty. From thence he shall come to judge the quick and the dead. I believe in the Holy Ghost, the holy catholic Church*, the communion of saints, the forgiveness of sins, the resurrection of the body, and the life everlasting. Amen. from https://www.rca.org/about/theology/creeds-and-confessions/the-apostles-creed/ nicene creed
We believe in one God, the Father, the Almighty, maker of heaven and earth, of all that is, seen and unseen. We believe in one Lord, Jesus Christ, the only Son of God, eternally begotten of the Father, God from God, Light from Light, true God from true God, begotten, not made, of one being with the Father; through him all things were made. For us and for our salvation he came down from heaven: was incarnate of the Holy Spirit and the Virgin Mary, and became truly human. For our sake he was crucified under Pontius Pilate; he suffered death and was buried. On the third day he rose again in accordance with the Scriptures; he ascended into heaven and is seated at the right hand of the Father. He will come again in glory to judge the living and the dead, and his kingdom will have no end. We believe in the Holy Spirit, the Lord, the giver of life, who proceeds from the Father [and the Son], who with the Father and the Son is worshiped and glorified, who has spoken through the prophets. We believe in one holy catholic and apostolic Church. We acknowledge one baptism for the forgiveness of sins. We look for the resurrection of the dead, and the life of the world to come. Amen. from https://www.rca.org/about/theology/creeds-and-confessions/the-nicene-creed/ the ten commandments
Exodus 20 (NIV) And God spoke all these words: 2 “I am the Lord your God, who brought you out of Egypt, out of the land of slavery.

The Beatitudes in Scripture The beatitudes are found in Matthew 5:3-12 and paralleled in Luke 6:20–23:
Blessed are the poor in spirit, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven. Blessed are those who mourn, for they will be comforted. Blessed are the meek, for they will inherit the earth. Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness, for they will be filled. Blessed are the merciful, for they will be shown mercy. Blessed are the pure in heart, for they will see God. Blessed are the peacemakers, for they will be called sons of God. Blessed are those who are persecuted because of righteousness, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven. Blessed are you when people insult you, persecute you and falsely say all kinds of evil against you because of me. Rejoice and be glad, because great is your reward in heaven, for in the same way they persecuted the prophets who were before you.

Ron Hubbard's science fiction book Seventh Day Adventists - https://carm.org/world-religions/seventh-day-adventism/ Why are people attracted to cults?
There are various reasons such as loneliness, a search for meaning and purpose, support in times of need or loss, etc. Unrest such as wars and civil uprisings fill citizens with a sense of widespread anxiety, giving way to all kinds of new movements. Conspiracy theories also crop up during these periods. Amidst crises, those who reject traditional Christianity will be more open to cult movements. Politically rebellious types who feel the administration/government has failed them may seek refuge. Cult leaders spewing fear-mongering (such as nuclear war) can offer a "safe haven" within. Freedoms offered that are labeled as sin in traditional Christian religions may draw pleasure-seekers in. Anarchists appreciate the "anything goes" approach offered by some cults. Some, such as the Mormons, promote traditional religious normalcy on the surface (check out their website); however, once members go deeper, all the weirdness surfaces. At that point, they are too brainwashed to successfully break ties with the cult.

Carl Boberg, 1886
Verse 1 O Lord my God, when I in awesome wonder Consider all the works Thy hands have made, I see the stars, I hear the rolling thunder, Thy pow’r thru-out the universe displayed! Chorus Then sings my soul, my Savior God, to Thee; How great Thou art, how great Thou art! Then sings my soul, my Savior God, to Thee; How great Thou art, how great Thou art! Verse 2 When thru the woods and forest glades I wander And hear the birds sing sweetly in the trees, When I look down from lofty mountain grandeur And hear the brook and feel the gentle breeze, Chorus Then sings my soul, my Savior God, to Thee; How great Thou art, how great Thou art! Then sings my soul, my Savior God, to Thee; How great Thou art, how great Thou art! Verse 3 And when I think that God, His Son not sparing, Sent Him to die, I scarce can take it in – That on the cross, my burden gladly bearing, He bled and died to take away my sin! Chorus Then sings my soul, my Savior God, to Thee; How great Thou art, how great Thou art! Then sings my soul, my Savior God, to Thee; How great Thou art, how great Thou art! Verse 4 When Christ shall come with shout of acclamation And take me home, what joy shall fill my heart! Then I shall bow in humble adoration And there proclaim, my God, how great Thou art! Chorus Then sings my soul, my Savior God, to Thee; How great Thou art, how great Thou art! Then sings my soul, my Savior God, to Thee; How great Thou art, how great Thou art!
