The Church is to Live By God’s Promises

He has granted to us his precious and very great promises, so that through them you may become partakers of the divine nature, having escaped from the corruption that is in the world because of sinful desire. 2 Peter 1:4

For years I have been compiling the Bible Promises categorically. I first began in my 20s after my conversion to Christ. A year later when I was made a church elder, then to a church leadership position, I leaned on the promises for strength and guidance. This was particularly important as I preached to the body of Christ, plus taught Bible School. Here is a screen-shot of a portion of my latest compilation of promises which I have placed in Trello, a digital platform made for lists.

As much as the promises of God properly and rightly belong to Christ, they also properly and rightly belong to each convert to Christ, the church, which is His spiritual body under His headship (Ephesians 1:22-23; 1 Corinthians 12:12-13, 27).
