Exploring Faith, Love, and Spiritual Freedom

The meeting began with Zafina and Samuel leading the group in prayer, expressing gratitude for the opportunity to gather and learn together. Theo was tasked with reading a scripture from the Bible, specifically from Galatians 5, emphasizing the importance of freedom and love. The group also discussed the significance of belief and the need to ignore other influences. Theo discussed the importance of living in the spirit and not being consumed by one’s desires, emphasizing that those who practice sinful behaviors will not inherit the kingdom of Yehura. He clarified the meaning of being under the Torah, stating that since Yehusha died for their trespasses, they are not under the penalty of the law. Theo also explained that circumcision of the heart is more important than physical circumcision, and that one should not rely on the Torah for justification. He emphasized the spiritual nature of their faith after Yahusha’s death, explaining that sin offerings were necessary before Yahusha’s death, but now, through belief and repentance, they can live spiritually and avoid fleshly desires. Theo concluded by stating that belief, working through love, is the true strength, not physical circumcision or uncircumcision.

Faith, Balance, and Personal Struggles Discussed

He shared his personal struggle with his own will and the need to die to himself daily.

The conversation ended with a prayer session led by Samuel and Zafina, praying for Auntie Babs’ health and the group’s overall well-being.
