    God’s Spirit~ Alive And Well!

    Contributed by Howard Strickland on Jun 6, 2016
     | 4,624 views

    Paul draws several contrasts between existence ruled by the flesh and the new life of the Spirit. To walk in the Spirit is to be "in step" with the Spirit. Life in the Spirit means to follow His lead and remain in His control. It is life governed by the S

    We often meet with crosses in the way of duty; and though we must not pull them upon our own heads, yet, when they are laid for us, we must take them up, and carry them after Christ. We must never be ashamed of Christ and his gospel.

    Opening illustration: What have we gotten ourselves into? Many people have asked this question when they were faced with great personal risk. • A mountain climber ~ is it worth taking the risk? • A soldier in combat ~ is it worth it?

    If we believe Jesus is the Christ, we will follow where He leads.

    “And it happened that while He was praying alone, the disciples were with Him, and He questioned them, saying, “Who do the people say that I am?” 19 They answered and said, “John the Baptist, and others say Elijah; but others, that one of the prophets of old has risen again.” 20 And He said to ...read more

    In this overlooked parable Jesus describes the life of discipleship in terms of service. Rather than focusing on our rights and needs, and deciding what we'd like to do, we need to focus on how we can serve our Master.

    This has been called “the most troubling parable” in the Bible. Why does Jesus say we are like unworthy servants? I know I must have read this before, but somehow I glossed over it. I've got a lot of books on the parables of Jesus and most omit this one. A year ago an article in ...read more

    Your dependency on God results in worship as a lifestyle.

    This may be a new concept for some folks that there is such a thing as a Spiritually healthy person, or a Spiritually unhealthy person. Obviously, a person who rejects the message of Jesus as the Lord and Savior of the world is Spiritually unhealthy. But there are those who have made the decision ...read more
