Summary of Readings

·                     Moses picked “Christian People” as leaders as Israel journeyed through the desert and sought to follow strict rules set out by God

·                     The New Testament focusses on developing a relationship with God and our neighbours, as our salvation is a gift and not of works

·                     The Christian lifestyle is about Praise, Prayer and Participation in our Christian Community  - Jesus said we must give up our worldly life to find it!

·                     In the Beatitudes Jesus sets out the requirements of a Christian Lifestyle and we see the evidence of God’s Wisdom in following these Teachings

·                     The Catch 22 is that whilst we do not have to do “works” for our salvation, once “saved”, we will want to do the “works”!
