• What is gospel to you 
• How precious is this gospel to you? (How much you need it? - continue to pursue it, willing to sacrifice for it)
• Does this gospel bind you?

Silken feathers 

He is the creator, also your Christ (redeemer, the priest who bled for you) 

Regeneration = birth of a new soul who know God, and yield to Him (spiritual transformation)

“Therefore let all Israel be assured of this: God has made this Jesus, whom you crucified, both Lord and Messiah.” When the people heard this, they were cut to the heart and said to Peter and the other apostles, “Brothers, what shall we do?” Peter replied, “Repent and be baptized, every one of you, in the name of Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of your sins. And you will receive the gift of the Holy Spirit. The promise is for you and your children and for all who are far off—for all whom the Lord our God will call.” With many other words he warned them; and he pleaded with them, “Save yourselves from this corrupt generation.” Those who accepted his message were baptized, and about three thousand were added to their number that day. They devoted themselves to the apostles’ teaching and to fellowship, to the breaking of bread and to prayer. Everyone was filled with aw.      I'm    e at the many wonders and signs performed by the apostles. All the believers were together and had everything in common. They sold property and possessions to give to anyone who had need. Every day they continued to meet together in the temple courts. They broke bread in their homes and ate together with glad and sincere hearts, praising God and enjoying the favor of all the people. And the Lord added to their number daily those who were being saved. (Acts 2:36-47 NIV)

1. Greatest price = Greatest love 
2. Paid for the lowliest of all = sinners (beyond understanding, as no one will and can do it)
   • Therefore we cannot use our perspective to see this salvational love of God
3. Salvation is to bound  a person to his creator.  (God-driven) ie silken feathers 

1. You're bound to keep knowing and confirming the gospel 
   • Is the gospel appealing to you, and you want to meditate on the word so much 
   • Do you meditate because you need to share?. Or because you meditate so much that it has the answers you need that you have to peach
   • Are you always going into it, you are always liberated by the word of God 
   • If you want to know god deeper --> go into the word (= personality of God)
2. You're bound to the fellowship of love with brethren 
   • It is always joy and liberty to Accept one another with love. It is the binding of the gospel to love one another 
3. Joy (sorrowful, yet always rejoicing; poor, yet making many rich; having nothing, and yet possessing everything. (2 Corinthians 6:10 NIV)
   • As you worry for things more, there is a comforter (HS) - even the humanity is sorrowful, the divinity of God works in you to strengthen you -> inward peace and joy experienced in him 
4. You are bound to live a set apart life = live out God's will
   • Don't fear accusations (from your weakness, because you will seek to protect yourself from being a cussed) as you will not seek to live before him
   • Do what god wants you to do - the accusations will stop! (Accusations are our true weakness that we cannot overcome and satan shames us in our spirit --> erode your spirit away)
   • Don't protect or seek to protect your feeling, god has saved you and protected you on the cross --> look to him, and acknowledge Him (Satan will shut his mouth)

1. True healing 
   • Start from spiritual healing (you start to have hunger for god)--> Glad and sincere heart --> enjoy the favour of man (interpersonal healing)

   • Regeneration of believers (born again eg showing the life that is yearning for God, fellowship eg part 2)
   • True Joy (that comes from unity of folloeng god)
   • Physical healing / financial healing 
3. Gathering of the remnants
