A study from Vince Baker Ministries
How can Biblical truth shape the way I live?
Start with the setting in John 8. Jesus is speaking about discipleship and freedom. His prayer in John 17 asks the Father to sanctify His followers in truth. Ephesians brings the subject into relationships through truthful speech. Use the passages to move from an appealing phrase to a faithful response.
Discerning Direction and Responding With Courage
The eighth group includes prophetic discernment and confidence when obedience feels demanding. Joshua’s commission gives a specific responsibility and a repeated call to heed God’s instruction. State what you believe you are being asked to do and ask wise people to help you test it.
