  • Security (2 Cor 1214 Mt 625-26)

8
What Going Home Means to a Child
  • (2 Corinthians 1214 NKJV) Now for the third
    time I am ready to come to you. And I will not be
    burdensome to you for I do not seek yours, but
    you. For the children ought not to lay up for the
    parents, but the parents for the children.

9
What Going Home Means to a Child
  • (Matthew 625-26 NKJV) Therefore I say to you,
    do not worry about your life, what you will eat
    or what you will drink nor about your body, what
    you will put on. Is not life more than food and
    the body more than clothing? 26 Look at the
    birds of the air, for they neither sow nor reap
    nor gather into barns yet your heavenly Father
    feeds them. Are you not of more value than they?

  • Learning (Prov 18,10,1521)

13
What Going Home Means to a Child
  • (Proverbs 18 NKJV) My son, hear the instruction
    of your father, And do not forsake the law of
    your mother

14
What Going Home Means to a Child
  • (Proverbs 110 NKJV) My son, if sinners entice
    you, Do not consent.

15
What Going Home Means to a Child
  • (Proverbs 115 NKJV) My son, do not walk in the
    way with them, Keep your foot from their path

16
What Going Home Means to a Child
  • (Proverbs 21 NKJV) My son, if you receive my
    words, And treasure my commands within you,

17
What Going Home Means to a Child
  • As a child my parents could do no wrong. Later
    they would have to explain to me some examples
    not to follow. (Ex. Smoking)

18
What Going Home Means to a Child
  • As a child my parents could do no wrong. Later
    they would have to explain to me some examples
    not to follow. (Ex. Smoking)

    They took the time!

  • In that learning there was correction. (Heb
    129-11)

20
What Going Home Means to a Child
  • (Hebrews 129-11 NKJV) Furthermore, we have had
    human fathers who corrected us, and we paid them
    respect. Shall we not much more readily be in
    subjection to the Father of spirits and live?
    10 For they indeed for a few days chastened us
    as seemed best to them, but He for our profit,
    that we may be partakers of His holiness.

21
What Going Home Means to a Child
  • 11 Now no chastening seems to be joyful for the
    present, but painful nevertheless, afterward it
    yields the peaceable fruit of righteousness to
    those who have been trained by it.

    (1 Tim 315, Heb 1019-21)

    write so that you may know how you ought to

    the church of the living God, the pillar and

54

    having boldness to enter the Holiest by the blood
    of Jesus, 20 by a new and living way which He
    consecrated for us, through the veil, that is,
    His flesh, 21 and having a High Priest over the
    house of God,

56
What Going Home Means to the Christian
  • (1 Corinthians 619-20 NKJV) Or do you not know
    that your body is the temple of the Holy Spirit
    who is in you, whom you have from God, and you
    are not your own? 20 For you were bought at a
    price therefore glorify God in your body and in
    your spirit, which are Gods.

57
What Going Home Means to the Christian
  • Our life is a walk with God! (1 Pet 312-13)

58
What Going Home Means to the Christian
  • (1 Peter 312-13 NKJV) For the eyes of the LORD
    are on the righteous, And His ears are open to
    their prayers But the face of the LORD is
    against those who do evil. 13 And who is he
    who will harm you if you become followers of what

    (1 Cor 1222-27)

61
What Going Home Means to the Christian
  • (1 Corinthians 1222-27 NKJV) No, much rather,
    those members of the body which seem to be weaker
    are necessary. 23 And those members of the body
    which we think to be less honorable, on these we
    bestow greater honor and our unpresentable parts
    have greater modesty, 24 but our presentable
    parts have no need. But God composed the body,
    having given greater honor to that part which
    lacks it,

62
What Going Home Means to the Christian
  • 25 that there should be no schism in the body,
    but that the members should have the same care
    for one another. 26 And if one member suffers,
    all the members suffer with it or if one member
    is honored, all the members rejoice with it. 27
    Now you are the body of Christ, and members
    individually.

    1 Tim 42-4)

64
What Going Home Means to the Christian
  • (Ephesians 415-16 NKJV) but, speaking the truth
    in love, may grow up in all things into Him who
    is the head Christ 16 from whom the whole
    body, joined and knit together by what every
    joint supplies, according to the effective
    working by which every part does its share,
    causes growth of the body for the edifying of
    itself in love.

    really know and help each other.

    confession of our hope without wavering, for He
    who promised is faithful. 24 And let us
    consider one another in order to stir up love and
    good works, 25 not forsaking the assembling of
    ourselves together, as is the manner of some, but
    exhorting one another, and so much the more as
    you see the Day approaching.

    Assuredly, I say to you, there is no one who has
    left house or brothers or sisters or father or
    mother or wife or children or lands, for My sake
    and the gospels, 30 who shall not receive a

    them rest, then He would not afterward have
    spoken of another day. 9 There remains
    therefore a rest for the people of God. 10 For
    he who has entered His rest has himself also
    ceased from his works as God did from His. 11
    Let us therefore be diligent to enter that rest,
    lest anyone fall according to the same example of
    disobedience.

    existence in a praise of God. (Rev 59-13)

    have redeemed us to God by Your blood Out of
    every tribe and tongue and people and nation,
    10 And have made us kings and priests to our
    God And we shall reign on the earth. 11 Then
    I looked, and I heard the voice of many angels
    around the throne, the living creatures, and the
    elders and the number of them was ten thousand
    times ten thousand, and thousands of thousands,
    12 saying with a loud voice Worthy is the
