As righteous as Christ.
I liked the poll. And the bold wouldn't have done it for me. I forgot about how discipline is talked about in other circles. I remember years ago being taught about spiritual disciplines. But still, the first thought that popped into my head concerning spiritual discipline was the church. Sorry but it made me laugh when I realized how wrong I was.Originally Posted by tt1106
Thanks everybody. Soryr for the conundrum....
I will BOLD spiritual, next time.
"May the Lamb that was slain receive the just reward for His sufferings." A quote by Moravian missionary that sold himself (along with a friend) into slavery to reach those that the slave owner prevented from hearing the gospel.
May I live for Him and not for me.
Jesus is enough
Not to split hairs here, but any and all of these disciplines are actually a form of worship.
When we fast and put God above our grumbling bellys, that's worship.
When we pray and put time with God above time with anyone and anything else, that's worship.
When we study and sink our teeth into God's Word instead of somebody else's words ... that's worship.
Just my humble ... e-pinion.
Press on toward the goal
I didn't think of it that way, but your right Dani, to worship Him is to put Him first, to make Him Lord over everything in our lives, thanks for that sisNot to split hairs here, but any and all of these disciplines are actually a form of worship.

Now I don't know what to post!
"People do not drift toward holiness. Apart from grace-driven effort, people do not gravitate toward godliness, prayer, obedience to Scripture, faith, and delight in the Lord. We drift toward compromise and call it tolerance; We drift toward disobedience and call it freedom; We drift toward superstition and call it faith. We cherish the indiscipline of lost self-control and call it relaxation; we slouch toward prayerlessness and delude ourselves into thinking we have escaped legalism; we slide toward godlessness and convince ourselves we have been liberated?" - D A Carson

This choice is really hard. I like all of them as they bring me closer to Christ except fasting. I can honestly tell you that one is HARD FOR ME.
I chose fellowship as my favorite as it gives a discussion for others to help them as it helps us. Many times it is not until after the fellowship that testimonies people shared sink in and we realise how God is showing us something through their experiences
