In the Berean Standard Bible, the concept of engaging is reflected in several passages that emphasize dedication, covenant, and active participation in God's will.<br><br><b>Biblical Context and Usage:</b><br><br>1. <b>Covenantal Engagement:</b><br> The Bible frequently discusses the idea of engaging in a covenant with God. This involves a solemn commitment to follow His commandments and live according to His statutes. In the Old Testament, the Israelites are often depicted as engaging in a covenantal relationship with God, as seen in <a href="/deuteronomy/29-12.htm">Deuteronomy 29:12-13</a> : "You are standing here in order to enter into a covenant with the LORD your God, a covenant the LORD is making with you this day and sealing with an oath, to establish you today as His people and He as your God, just as He promised you and as He swore to your fathers, to Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob."<br><br>2. <b>Engagement in Spiritual Warfare:</b><br> The New Testament calls believers to engage in spiritual warfare, emphasizing the need for vigilance and active resistance against spiritual adversaries. <a href="/ephesians/6-11.htm">Ephesians 6:11-12</a> instructs believers to "Put on the full armor of God, so that you can make your stand against the devil’s schemes. For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this world’s darkness, and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms."<br><br>3. <b>Engagement in Good Works:</b><br> Christians are encouraged to engage in good works as a demonstration of their faith and commitment to God's purposes. <a href="/titus/3-8.htm">Titus 3:8</a> states, "This saying is trustworthy. And I want you to emphasize these things, so that those who have believed God will be intent on engaging in good works. These things are excellent and profitable for the people."<br><br>4. <b>Engagement in Prayer and Worship:</b><br> The Bible underscores the importance of engaging in prayer and worship as a means of maintaining a close relationship with God. <a href="/philippians/4-6.htm">Philippians 4:6</a> advises, "Be anxious for nothing, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God."<br><br>5. <b>Engagement in Community:</b><br> The early church is depicted as a community of believers who engaged with one another in fellowship, teaching, and breaking of bread. <a href="/acts/2-42.htm">Acts 2:42</a> describes this engagement: "They devoted themselves to the apostles’ teaching and to the fellowship, to the breaking of bread and to prayer."<br><br><b>Theological Implications:</b><br><br>Engagement in the biblical sense is not merely a passive acknowledgment but an active, intentional commitment to live out one's faith. It involves a holistic dedication to God's commands, a readiness to participate in spiritual battles, and a commitment to serve others through good works. This engagement is rooted in the believer's relationship with God, sustained through prayer, worship, and community involvement. The concept of "engageth" thus encapsulates the dynamic and participatory nature of the Christian faith, calling believers to a life of active devotion and service.<a name="lib" id="lib"></a><div class="vheading2">Library</div><p><a href="/library/hoadly/several_discourses_concerning_the_terms_of_acceptance_with_god/sermon_vi_st_james_ii.htm"><span class="l">St. James ii. 10</span></a> <br><b>...</b> Law, must likewise be supposed to extend, in some degree, to all the rest, because<br> it is certain that the same Disposition of Mind which <b>engageth</b>, or permits <b>...</b> <br><font color="#ff6600" size="-1">/.../sermon vi st james ii.htm</font><p><a href="/library/binning/the_works_of_the_rev_hugh_binning/sermon_xii_thou_shall_keep.htm"><span class="l">"Thou Shall Keep Him in Perfect Peace, Whose Mind is Stayed on <b>...</b></span></a> <br><b>...</b> with him!
