Wake Up Church Let The Spirit Renew Your Mind
It’s time to “wake up church”. Your eternal status is at risk. This Bible snack is unique since it presents a few disputed topics and links to STM articles that address the topics.

I Am Wisdom, I Empower You With Good Sense
“To get wisdom [good sense] is to love oneself” (Proverbs 19:8a NRSV). Through Godly wisdom and understanding. we establish a good strong family (home – Proverbs 24:3).

After all, I am wisdom, I empower you with good sense!
Jesus Is The Best Friend IF You Obey Him
Some “friends” pretend to be friends, but a true friend sticks closer than a brother. True friends want only the best for you. A true friend will never hurt you on purpose, but will tell you the truth even if it hurts. Proverbs 27:6 (CJB)
Either you are a friend of God or an enemy. You simply cannot be both. So, if you want to be a friend of God, meet the “if” condition. As I said before, the “if” condition is “if you do whatever I command you”. In other words, you are a friend of Jesus if you do what He says.
