200607 - Part 2
When there is a fire, it is that little spark which ignites the fire.
Passion, similar to fuel, keeps the fire going.
However, after pondering and mediating upon the Word, it seems that spark and passion is just the foundational level.
After fellowshipping with a friend, I don’t want to be led by emotions when I worship God. Worship is surrendering to Him, irregardless of my emotions.
If spark and passion is just the foundation, then what keeps the fire going perpetually? It is the revelation of who God is.
The apostles all have bible study with Jesus Christ, drove the demons away, healed the sick and evangelise to so many people. But in the end, they went back to their ownselves when Jesus was crucified.
But after a revelation of who He is, they have this overwhelming passion for God. That passion cannot be explain naturally. Because it is not even from man. But from God. I believe that passion is good. But Revelation is the ultimate goal that each and every one of us must reach.

Hey dude, indeed they had bible studies, when they have no bible at the time of Christ. I'm just wondering how do the Apostles had their Bible studies. Bible is written much much later. Handwritten scriptures to be exact. There is definitely no printing press at tt time to print the Holy Bible.

Indeed you are right by saying that there is no Bible at that moment of time. However, Jesus studied the Old Testament. And that is available at that period of time. That is the reason why the Pharisees and the Scribes are unconvinced that Jesus is the Son of God, sent down to save them all.
