Bible in Life

The Lord's Supper and the Last Supper 

Christians of all kinds regularly celebrate the Lord's Supper or Communion or the Eucharist. Jesus instituted this commemorative meal during what has come to be known as the Last Supper, a Passover meal He celebrated with his disciples the night before his crucifixion. In this episode of the Bible in Life podcast, we look at the original setting and historical background to the Lord's Supper which deepens its meaning and our experience of it.

Praying in the Spirit | Life in the Spirit, pt. 5 

How does the Holy Spirit help us pray? What does it mean to pray in the Spirit? 

Ephesians 6:18

"With every prayer and request, pray at all times in the Spirit, and with this in view, be alert with all perseverance and every request for all the saints"

 

Romans 8:26-27

 Now in the same way the Spirit also helps our weakness; for we do not know what to pray for as we should, but the Spirit Himself intercedes for us with groanings too deep for words; and He who searches the hearts knows what the mind of the Spirit is, because He intercedes for the saints according to the will of God.

Be Filled with the Spirit | Life in the Spirit, pt. 4

Ephesians 5:15-18 says, "15 So then, be careful how you walk, not as unwise people but as wise, 16 making the most of your time, because the days are evil. 17 Therefore do not be foolish, but understand what the will of the Lord is. 18 And do not get drunk with wine, in which there is debauchery, but be filled with the Spirit" 

As we continue our series on "Life in the Spirit," in this episode of the Bible in Life podcast we reflect on what it means to be "filled with the Spirit."

How to Walk by the Spirit (Galatians 5:16) | Life in the Spirit, pt. 3

Galatians 5:16 says, "But I say, walk by the Spirit, and you will not carry out the desire of the flesh." This is the basic behavioral command for Christians. We can obey all other commands only insofar as we are obeying this command, because the Spirit's presence and power is what enables the transformation necessary to become the kind of person who can obey the other commands. 

So how do we walk by the Spirit? 

Tune in to this episode of the Bible in Life podcast for some reflections on how to walk by the Spirit.
