#Prophecy #News Watch : #PrisonFellowship teaches that every person is created in the image of #God, yet every person is accountable for his own choices.

Its intensive Prison Fellowship Academy emphasizes #responsibility, #integrity, #productive #work,# community and #restoration. #Prisoners are challenged to confront the thinking that led to their crimes, understand the damage #inflicted upon #victims and begin making different choices.

One movement offers power over others. The other teaches service to others.

One tells prisoners to identify an #enemy. The other commands them to love their enemies.

One can use fear to produce outward #submission. #Christianity calls for voluntary #repentance and an inward #transformation that only #JesusChrist can #accomplish.

Most importantly, the #Gospel does not tell a prisoner that his crimes were society’s fault or that #violence against #unbelievers can restore his honor. It tells him that he is #guilty—but not beyond redemption. He must #repent, accept #responsibility and receive a #forgiveness he could never earn. That forgiveness then becomes the foundation for a transformed life.

The rise of #Islamist #prison gangs becomes even more #revealing when contrasted with #ChristianPrisonMinistries such as #PrisonFellowship.

Both #encounter #inmates searching for #identity, #forgiveness and belonging. But what they teach—and what their teaching produces—could hardly be more different.

The Islamist prison gang tells the inmate that power comes through #submission to the group. The world is divided between the #brotherhood and the #unbeliever, the #loyal and the #disloyal. The prison authorities are enemies. #Violence can be justified. Status belongs to the strongest, and #protection is offered in exchange for conformity.

Different #Bible Verses on #Submission : The Bible has a lot to say on the topic of submission.

But before we look at specific verses, let’s first define what submission means.

#Webster #dictionary defines submission as “the act of submitting or yielding to the will or authority of another”.

When it comes to our #relationship with #God, submission means giving ourselves over completely to Him, trusting Him #implicitly, and following His #guidance.

This can be a difficult thing to do, but it’s also incredibly liberating.

#Scriptures On #Submission KJV : In #alertness, we are to remain #clearminded, looking out for our #enemy the #devil who seeks to #destroy us.

We #resist him by focusing on staying firm in our #faith and trusting #God to keep His #promises.

#Ephesians 5:22

In this verse, Paul explains how #Christian #husbandsandwives should apply their understanding of #salvation within their #marriage.

Wives are commanded to ” #submit” to their husbands as they would to #Christ, and to show them #respect.

Often overlooked, however, is that men are equally #obligated.

#Husbands are told to love their wives as Christ loved the church: with #humility and #sacrifice as if caring for their own bodies.

Conclusion : In conclusion, remember that #submission to #God is not #slavery, it is #freedom.

It is a way to live in #peace and joy, knowing that you are doing what is best for yourself and those around you.

When you submit to God, you are opening yourself up to receive His #blessings and #guidance in all areas of your life.

Different #Bible Verses on #Submission : There are dozens of #Bible verses that talk about submission, but here are just a few to get us started:

#Acts 5:29

This verse is a #cornerstone of #Christian ethics: that #God’s will is worth #suffering for.

This #statement is a crucial part of Christian ethics.

While #believers are commanded to “ #submit ” to earthly government, that is not always the same as “ #obeying ” #government.

#Peter and the other #apostles live out a clear example of this in the early chapters of the book of #Acts.

Being content with our Lord’s #graciousness is the key to a #peaceful life.

In this verse, Paul says that he can do anything, and go through anything #God sets before him because he knows the #Lord will provide the strength to complete that #trial.

We too can do whatever God sets before us if we trust the Lord to provide.
