Christian Growth & Discernment

 


Christian Growth & Discernment

When we were mere children, even only two and three years old, we began forming who we are – both consciously and unconsciously. We mimic our parents and those adults around us. We also learn how to adapt to certain circumstances. As Ancient Antiochene Christians we teach about this important process to our Christian children.

As adults we are part of an entirely different world. We learn fast that the “game” changes. As we grow older, we learn and the game becomes clearer, we really begin to see how sick humanity is with sin. This can become depressing for the non-Christian. As children we actually are attuned more to our intuitive mind. We tend to lose this as we grow older.

As we move along in life we begin to learn about our likes and dislikes and these change throughout time. In our Christian faith we learn the applicability of God’s word in every relationship – relationships with objects and living beings. Studying God’s word helps us in proper development. How we think, what we think, what we say and don’t say. God’s word helps to shape us in our individuation process. We begin to develop Godly qualities in our human characters.

The Ancient Antiochene student is not alone. We are the “body of Christ”. There are no fines, fees, or forms to fill out to become a true Christian. Study with us online every day. After one month worth of studying [listening to our talks and reading our articles] using our online material, we consider you to be an official “Ancient Antiochene Christian”, a fellow brother and sister in Christ Jesus our Lord.

If you have never been baptized, we ask that you find a healthy church in your area and do so. Become properly baptized by the “water and the Word”. Life is constantly changing in many ways and to have the proper knowledge of the Lord will help one stay stable and sane in this constant “storm” of life.

True Christianity is a path traveled by a small group of people. Not many stick with the “straight and narrow” path but for those who do, what and awesome change begins to take place. Understanding the true mysteries of the Bible creates a dynamic change in a person’s life. We invite you to continue your studies with us here at “The Shepherds Way & Nugget of Truth”. Don’t give up, never give up.

May the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you.
