0:00.0	Welcome to the Excel Stillmore podcast. I am your host, Chris Emerson. I'm here to encourage you in your walk with God. Thank you for joining in.
0:14.8	Today's podcast is sponsored by a wonderful company, Creation to Revelation. This group of Christians believe it is extremely important that we teach the Word of God to our kids.
0:27.1	They have original graphic illustrations from the beginning of the Bible to the end,
0:32.2	featuring the beautiful and consistent presence of Jesus throughout.
0:36.5	You can explore all of that at creation to revelation.com.
0:41.7	I'm so thankful you're here, so let's get started. Hey, welcome. I'm really glad you've joined today.

1:49.1	certainly scripture teaches that you have entered into a relationship with God but it is not
1:55.3	just with God you say well I've also entered into a relationship with Jesus, true, and the Holy Spirit,
2:03.6	but not just with Jesus and the Holy Spirit.
2:07.4	There is common and unmistakable imagery in the New Testament that says that Jesus is the head of the body,
2:15.1	and the body is his church. When I am baptized into a relationship with Christ,
2:21.9	I am added as a part of his body. I become a part of something that is greater than myself.
2:29.2	I agree to become a contributor to something that is outside of me and my own body. Look, there's this false
