50
Q

List the eight (8) steps of spiritual development IN ORDER that is taken from 2 Peter 1:5-7:

A

Faith – Choosing to live a God-centered, rather than I-centered life leads to…..
Goodness – Which are behaviors that result in the faith choice above. These behaviors lead
to personal growth (due to a choice to live outside of self, and therefore…..)
Knowledge – develops due to your MATURITY. Your TESTMONY becomes filled with
numerous examples of “what I’ve learned” & “what I’ve experienced” due to the
foundational Faith choice that resulted in actions one would NOT have chosen if remaining
in self-interest….. this leads to the ability of…..
Self-Control – When faced with the temptation to act upon one’s selfish desires, the
testimony from above allows one to choose Faith in God’s way (the application of
Emotional Intelligence) rather than self-justification (being driven by feelings), which leads
to……
Perseverance – actions of fighting through fear, worry, doubt, etc. and facing the problems
of the day. Because of this,
Godliness – is seen in you. A result of how others view you in a manner that attracts them
to you because the manner in which you have behaved, the choices you have made, the
actions you take, are markedly different than what they feel themselves and are used to
seeing. When they come to you, you treat them with…
Kindness – in a manner of accepting them as they are. Knowing “but by the grace of God
there go I” you treat others with the full force of your very best and give them hope of all
that God can do through them. This interaction is ……..
Love – Living in a way that gives your very best (what you’ve developed because you Love
God) in a way that encourages and provides for others so that they can be their very best.
