NT 2. Student Choice. week 5.

Choice 3.

1. the "body of sin must be destroyed" before baptism.
2. Christ's death and resurrection.  Christ died, laid down his life- like when we lay down in the font when we are baptized. and He rose again, like when we come up out of the font.
3. Someone cannot be baptized by sprinkling because it does not "cover" your entire being.
4. Newness of life is walking with God.  Once we are baptized, we are cleansed and are close to God.
5. The natural man.

Christ atoned for our sins so that we could become the servants of righteousness.  Not the servants of sin.  When we were servants of sin, we were free from righteousness.  But now being made free from sin, we become servants of God.  The true source of freedom is Jesus Christ, our Lord.

NT 2. Student Choice. week 3.

Choice 5.  How Christ helps us overcome sin.

Christ is our "rock."  Rock can mean foundation.  He is the foundation and cornerstone of our religion.  When we rely on Christ, as our rock, we can overcome any temptation, and he can help us through our trials and tribulations.
Verse 13 is reassuring because I know that any temptation I am faced with, there will be a way for me to escape the temptation.
The verses in Alma are comforting because I know that no matter what I go through, Christ knows how I feel, and he will help me along the way.

Be an example and carry the word of God

Teach and help one another

Be charitable

Give thanks

Pray always

1. Pray always.  When I'm not on my knees saying a personal prayer, I can strive to always have a prayer in my heart.  

2.  Give thanks.  I need to work on being more grateful for the people in my life and the things they do for me.  And I also need to be more thankful to God for giving me all of the good people in things that I enjoy.  

3.  Have faith.  I need to have faith that everything happens for a reason. I need to remember that no matter what, God is watching out for me, and he knows what he is doing, even if I am lost.
