Gramma-TEA-ically : a significant cuppa

Therefore, my dear brothers and sisters, stay true to the Lord. 

(Philippians 4:1, NLT)

Therefore, an adverb---meaning; a result.....for that reason.
THEREFORE ----used 1468 times in the King James version of the Bible. 

Cole Huffman sees "therefore" as an encapsulating word which shows us what all the preceding words were there for.  In the scriptures, it is often used after the writer has shown all that God has done for you (me)---therefore, or in light of all of this, here's what should follow in your (my) life.

One of the first things I learned in my early years of Kay Arthur Bible studies, was the "therefore rule." 
If therefore appears in a passage, and it will a lot, it will be incumbent on you to find out what it's there for. In other words, it's our responsibility to "open" our Bibles and dig into the Scripture allowing God to reveal truth and the life lessons He has for each of us.

Here are a few "therefores" for your digging pleasure......

Therefore, with minds that are alert and fully sober,... 1 Peter 1:13 Therefore, put on the whole armor of God...Ephesians 6:13 Therefore, my dear friends, as you have always obeyed....Philippians 2:12 Therefore, there is now no condemnation....Romans 8:1 

.....therefore you can enjoy the fruit of that labor as you gratefully sip a gramma-TEA-ically significant cuppa.  

Fideli-TEA : a re-brew

I have prayed for you that your faith may not fail. (Luke 22:32, NASB)

Faithful in faith. One needs to remain true to  the calling of his faith. A faith secured at the cross.

Such faithfulness keeps the lines of communication open----think prayer---between earth and heaven. Without faith there is a BIG block in the communication between my soul and God's heart.

Faith is active. A cuppa gramma-TEA-ically correct "active" verbs overflows from loyalty to one's faith.

• Faith leans.....on God.
• Faith links....the Lord.
• Faith clothes......with the righteousness of Christ.
• Faith defends.....with the sword of the Spirit.
• Faith gives......victory to His own through His love.
• Faith honors.....God.

So.....fideli-TEA needs to be a regular cuppa for all believers.
