Anglican Bible study - STUDY 46, NOVEMBER 13, 2022 : Topic - Christians’ focus on eternal bliss

- ,
--> Note :- Are you born again? You are never going to win the battle against the devil if you are not born again. I plead with you to give your life to Jesus today because the longer you stay in sin and remain unsaved, the more hardened your nature becomes against the purpose and the way God wants you to be for His purpose. To give your life to Jesus now, say this prayer: “Father, I come to You in the name of Jesus. I know that I am a sinner and I cannot save myself but Jesus died for me and shed His blood that I might be saved. Today, I accept Jesus as my Lord and Saviour. Jesus, I ask You to come into my heart, be my Lord, wash me with Your blood and make me whole. I believe with my heart and confess with my mouth that Jesus is my Lord. Thank You for saving me. In Jesus' name I pray. Amen.” I congratulate you and welcome you to the family of God if you have sincerely said that prayer. Now you are fit to discover, know and walk in your destiny.

 Anglican Bible study - STUDY 46, NOVEMBER 13, 2022 : Topic - Christians’ focus on eternal bliss

 

 
THEME: THE LORD GOD AND THE REIGN OF PEACE
 
SUB-THEME: The eternal reign with God-1
 
TOPIC: Christians’ focus on eternal bliss
 
TEXTS: Eccle 1:1-18 
 
MEMORY VERSE: Phil 3:20 “For our citizenship is in heaven, from which we also eagerly wait for the Savior, the Lord Jesus Christ”.
 
AIMS:
 
i. to appraise the vanity of this world and
ii. to expatiate on reasons for a heavenly focus instead of earthly wealth accumulation.
 
INTRODUCTION
 
Vanity in the words of the preacher implies the pointlessness of all human 
activities in this world. The futility in accumulating wealth, fame, position and knowledge is a pointer to us as Christians that this world is not ours, but heaven, where we have our citizenship to enjoy eternal bliss with God. Is it a crime then to be wealthy? This and other salient points on our eternal focus will be discussed in this study.
 
STUDY GUIDES
 
1a. Analyze Eccle. 1:1-18 and explain the vanity of this World? Is it a crime to acquire worldly values? Read Deut 8:18.
 
2. What is eternal Bliss in the context of Rev 7:16-17 and Rev 21:4? Differentiate eternal Bliss from the toiling of this world.
 
3. How can you explain the loss of focus on eternal bliss among Christians in our generation? Explain in the context of prosperity sermons. Ro 8:5; 16:17-18; Phil 3:17-19.
 
4. From the text, why should Christians focus on eternal bliss more than worldly values? Mt 6:19-20; (Matt 19:16-24).
 
CONCLUSION 
 
As Christians, we must always see the futility and limitations of investing what we are and have in
this world and focus on heaven; our eternal home, where we shall enjoy perfect happiness and eternal peace with God
.
FOOD FOR THOUGHT: This world is not mine; Heaven is my home.
