Lazer Tag

Well another night of Battalion is over. We had a bit of a small turnout last night as only 6 guys showed up. Charlie made a guest appearance as well so that was pretty cool. Our bible study was on faith and how faith includes believeing, trusting, and action.

We read in Hebrews 11:1, that "faith is being sure of what we hope for and certain of what we do not see."

We also read in James 2:19 "you believe there is one God, Good! Even the demons believe that" so we know that believing is not enough.

We also read about Abraham and Isaac and how Abraham was willing to sacrifice his only son even though God had promised him many descendants. We talked about how his faith required that he trust God that he would do what he promised even though it seemed impossible.

We also read in James 2:17 "In the same way, faith by itself, if it is not accompanied by action is dead." So we know that faith also includes action on our part. We talked again about Abraham, and Noah, and Moses and others who had faith and acted on it even when people considered them to be crazy.

Remember, next week is Lazer Tag. Meet at Planet Lazer at 6:45pm, bring $5. We will be done at 8:30pm and you can get picked up there as well. Some of us will probably go to Boston Pizza after as well so plan for that if you can. Make sure that the guys who didn't make it this week know, tell them if you see them. We should have some extra spots as well if you want to bring a friend. See you Tuesday!!!

P.S. I posted the Bible reading for the month of March. I know that some of you guys said that it was too much to read in one day. I was thinking that if that is the case then pick either the new testament or the old testament and just do one. Don't forget to post up here or tell me at Battalion, it encourages me to keep reading if I know that some of you guys are doing it. Also don't forget to think about whether you would like to say some of the memory verses in church, talk to me next week about it.
