Focus Points	Scriptural References
1) Our faith increases as we allow God to increase our understanding of His Word. 2) The scriptures teach us about God’s commandments, not God’s suggestions. 3) We have a choice, we either believe God or we don’t. There is no half-way or gray area. 4) As God reveals His spirit to us through the word, we have a choice to either accept or reject His word. 5) God has created a “waster” to destroy the disobedient. In today’s world, this could very well be in the form of enemies to Christianity, such as extreme religious sects. 6) There is no other foundation other than Jesus Christ, that we can build our faith upon. 7) Our church and our faith should be like a well built building, “fitly framed together”. 8) Man’s tendency is to add to or take away from God’s word. 9) When we do not abide within the commandments of God, we will not receive God’s best. 10) “Shadowing with wings” means that there is a terrible thing about to happen to that which is “shadowing with wings”. 11) The hand of God is active today on the face of the earth. 12) The promises of God will be fulfilled. 13) When you do all you can do to follow God’s commandments, then is God’s grace sufficient.	1st Corinthians 3:10-11 1st Corinthians 4:1-2 Ephesians 2:21 Isaiah 18:1-7 Revelation Chapters 8-10 Joshua 24:15 Luke 13:27 Moroni 10:29
