We understand the importance of faith.
Without faith, it is impossible to please God Hebrews 11:6.
Just keeping love in the context of the scripture illustrates the importance of walking in love.
But hope.
How did Hope get included in the Big 3?
DW: Don’t get your hopes up.
Hope is definitely important.

Fade in.

Not if You Fall! (Greek)
Fade in.
(To fall into something) Someone has dug a hole, and you fell into it.
You might have dug the hole.
(Not opening bills) The devil’s trying to steal my money.
Christians live in this hole all their life.
Why?
We don’t know how to fill in the hole, without digging a new one.
Fade in to light upon.
You were not expecting it, you just happened upon it.
(Mom has a cat.)(Mom did not want another cat).
(Scram or have a bowl of premium cat food, then go.)
Fade in.
I am just under attack.

Fade in Tests and Challenges

Did I just write your story?
James Gives Us 3 Directives
WHEN WE FALL.
Directive # 1
Read: Next: Plug in our definitions.
Read No matter how you choose to phrase it, ( even if it is just a little difficult, or a challenging day, )the Directive is the same.
Notice the scripture does not say, put up with it, endure it, stay in bed all day with your head under the covers until it passes, ) The Directive is.
Count it all Joy.
Look at the Word Translated Count.
Verb, (Action Word), Imperative: a command, Plural- It is an ongoing process.
We do don take attacks off.
So: To Lead, Enter your ear’s or eyes as an attack, by the time it exits your mouth, it has been reconfigured from an attack, to a heaven declared victory.
command with official authority, consider, (Demonstrate)
The Valley, the darkest hour, death all around me.
It has never been this bad before, Yea, Oh Joy, I will fear no evil.
Why? Consider, count, wrap your mind around it, ....Fade in.
You are with me.
(It makes all the difference.)
Continue:
They Dragged them.
magistrates: (Carry around bundles of wood rods)
vs 22 multitude: (beaten with rods.)
vs 23 many stripes
threw them into prison.
(That almost seems better) Unless you understand the Roman Prison System)
Vs 24 Inner prison.
(dark, damp, decaying flesh and disease all around.)
Next
Back bleeding, open wounds, feet fastened in stocks, pushed over onto a cold damp disease infested prison floor.
If the trial was not the next day, they could bring them out and do it all over again.
Many prisoners did not make it to trial.
Review:
Trials, Temptations, Troubles of Any Kind, Tests, Challenges, Difficulties
Silas: You know what Paul, This has been a bad day.
Paul, it has been a challenge, I can’t wait to post about it on Facebook.
Is that how it all went down?
Maybe for just a moment, the door in the top of the prison ceiling is opened.
The jailer drops the prison mail down the hole with a candle so they can read their mail.
Maybe there is a letter from James and he says, Hey Paul.
Hey Silas, I was just praying and the Holy Spirit gave me this new Revelations.
Tell me what you think.
That’s probably not how it came down.
