His life or yours?Pastor-Teacher His life or yours?THE DOCTRINE OF REPENTANCE The first type of repentance is a synonym for faith in connection with salvation. A change in mental attitude about the person and work of Christ equals repentance in connection with salvation. The second type of repentance is rebound, changing our thinking to agree with God’s verdict concerning our sins. We embrace the experiential forgiveness God freely provides. Point 7. The third type of repentance in the Church age believer’s life is the turning away from human viewpoint (lies, evil) and turning toward divine viewpoint (grace and truth), resulting in living a new life of fellowship with the Trinity. What do you think of the truth? Salvation repentance is an open door that leads to the way. Rebound repentance is an open door that leads to the truth. Maturity repentance is an open door that leads to the life. The Truth leads to the Christian lifestyle. This is why TLJC said in JOH 14:6 "I am the way [entrance], and the truth [doctrine], and the life; Zoe refers to the super-grace life which is the objective of all doctrine. The zoe life is God’s fantastic grace provision which is far beyond your desires and even even your most fervent prayers. JOH 10:10 1. In the life beyond gnosis, the Church glorifies God through the attainment of spiritual maturity. JOH 10:10 1. In the life beyond gnosis, the Church glorifies God through the attainment of spiritual maturity. 2. In the zoe life, the church glorifies God through receiving their escrow blessings for time and in the eternal state. 1.

In the zoe life, the church glorifies God through receiving their escrow blessings for time and in the eternal state. But God has provided for the mature believer a zoe-life, beyond imagination, and beyond our greatest solicitation to self-interest. 1. First of all, this life is only found in Christ and gives us guidance and direction in this life, Joh 1:4.

9. It is through the written communication of Bible doctrine that this life is offered to every member of the human race, Joh 20:31. In Phi 4:11-12, we have what the correct interpretation of life is for the believer who sticks with doctrine and lives in the way and the truth manifested by the life. JOH 14:6, In the spiritual life, zoe refers to the super-grace life which is the objective of Bible doctrine resident in the soul. This zoe-life refers to an extraordinary peace that God desires for us to experience even in time. This sense of inner peace and contentment may decrease or increase because this new life, the zoe life, a life of complete contentment, is given little by little. As God has a plan for our lives which enables us to recognize death to old sin nature with its selfish desires, as a part of that plan He also gives us the experience of zoe-life in time. Joh 5:24 JOH 14:27 Phi 4:7 We do not always understand the will of God, but to trust His sovereignty completely is another matter that leads us to the experience of this zoe-life within. As we stay dedicated and devoted to the way, the truth and the life, outward problems caused by persecution, injustice, and even what is perceived to be the unfairness of God, are no longer perceived to be a negative and reacted to.
