When we attend Bible study we grow in the ways to overcome sin. 1 John 5:4 “For whatsoever is born of God overcometh the world: and this is the victory that overcometh the world, even our faith.” I don’t know about you but I want to overcome sin. By growing our faith we overcome sin. Are we talking about faith in God or the word of God or growing in “THE FAITH”? Well, you see, they are all the same. To properly worship and understand God and what He wants, we must grow in all the ways to overcome sin. Matthew 4:4 “But he answered and said, It is written, Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceedeth out of the mouth of God.” Without the ability to overcome sin, we will not be ready for the final test. John 12:48 “He that rejecteth me, and receiveth not my words, hath one that judgeth him: the word that I have spoken, the same shall judge him in the last day.” Revelation 20:12 “And I saw the dead, small and great, stand before God; and the books were opened: and another book was opened, which is the book of life: and the dead were judged out of those things which were written in the books, according to their works.”
