  1. Life Together Avenue Vineyard November 03, 2013

  2. “These things happened to them as examples and were written down as warnings for us…” 1 Corinthians 10:11

  3. Saul & David

  4. “…obedience is better than sacrifice…” 1 Samuel 15:22

  5. “9But Saul and the army spared Agag and the best of the sheep and cattle, the fat calves and lambs—everything that was good. These they were unwilling to destroy completely, but everything that was despised and worthless they totally destroyed.” 1 Samuel 15:9

  6. “16You do not desire a sacrifice, or I would offer one. You do not want a burnt offering. 17 The sacrifice you desire is a broken spirit. You will not reject a broken and repentant heart, O God.” Psalm 51:16,17

  7. “And we urge you, brothers and sisters, warn those who are idle, encourage the timid, help the weak, be patient with everybody. Make sure that nobody pays back wrong for wrong, but always try to be kind to each other and to everyone else. Be joyful always; pray continually; give thanks in all circumstances, for this is God’s will for you in Christ Jesus.” 1 Thessalonians 5:14-18

  8. “This evolution towards a real responsibility for others is sometimes blocked by fear. It is easier to stay on the level of a pleasant way of life in which we keep our freedom and our distance. But that means that we stop growing and shut ourselves up in our own small concerns and pleasures.” Jean Vanier

  9. “It may be that Christians, in spite of corporate worship, common prayer, and all their fellowship in service, may still be left to their loneliness. The final break-through to fellowship does not occur, because, though they have fellowship with one another as believer’s and as devout people, they do not have fellowship as the undevout, as sinners.” Dietrich Bonhoeffer

  10. “16 Confess your sins to each other and pray for each other so that you may be healed. The earnest prayer of a righteous person has great power and produces wonderful results.” James 5:16

  11. “Confession” • From the Greek – “homolegeo” • “homo” – same • “legeo” – from “logos” meaning “word” • to say the same thing about a situation that God would say about it.

  12. “Sin” • From the Greek – “hamartia” • “to miss the mark”

  13. “A man who confesses his sins in the presence of a brother knows that he is no longer alone with himself; he experiences the presence of God in the reality of the other person. As long as I am by myself in the confession of my sins, everything remains in the dark, but in the presence of a brother, the sin has to be brought into the light.” Dietrich Bonhoeffer
