Tuesday's study is titled, House of God.
A few questions are asked there.
"But what about the church?
What about those who have professed the name of Jesus and, from all outward appearances, are living the Christian life in sincerity and faithfulness?
Are they, too, judged?"
1 Peter 4:17 says, "For the time is come that judgment must begin at the house of God: and if it first begin at us, what shall the end be of them that obey not the gospel of God?"
The Judgment must begin at the house of God.
Why do Christians need to be judged?
Didn't Christ's death take care of the need of judgment for those who believe on Him?
In answer to my own questions here, the lesson draws our attention to Matthew 7:21-23 which says:
Matthew 7:21-23 (King James Version)
21 Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven.
22 Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in thy name? and in thy name have cast out devils? and in thy name done many wonderful works?
23 And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity.
From the above text, Christ says that not all professing Christians will enter into the kingdom of heaven, thus the reason for judgment beginning at the house of God, or amongst professing Christians.

We are not taought to pray to the Holy Spirit. We are taught to ask FOR the Holy Spirit. So I cannot ask him.
I am assuming you never pray, "Dear Jesus" since we are only taught to pray to the Father.

Daruis,
Your tongue is as forked as satans.
You cannot answer any question put to you.
You keep trying to redirect and do a charlatan’s trick of misdirection.
Again, the questions to you are thus, “can you give scripture that states the Holy Spirit is God? Where in the scriptures are we taught to pray to the Holy Spirit?
I will now add yet another since you did make a comment on it after all.
Where in the scriptures does it teach to pray to Christ? I know where Christ taught us to pray to the Father. Maybe you do not know this prayer? It begins “Our Father”.
I will yet again answer your question
“I am assuming you never pray, "Dear Jesus" since we are only taught to pray to the Father.”
That is correct I only pray to the One True God, and I do this asking for the Holy Spirit and I do this through Jesus Christ and by Jesus Christ. For no man can come unto the Father except by Jesus Christ.
Come on answer the questions with a plain thus saith the Lord.
Peace and Grace
David
The greatest want of the world is the want of men-- men who will not be bought or sold, men who in their inmost souls are true and honest, men who do not fear to call sin by its right name, men whose conscience is as true to duty as the needle to the pole, men who will stand for the right though the heavens fall.
