    The Holy Spirit comes to take up permanent residence in a believer’s heart and life. Thus the body of the believer becomes the temple of the Holy Spirit, a truth of immense importance.

    The background for today’s sermon is the Lord’s devastating announcement that he is going away. The disciples are not to be alarmed. Another comforter is coming. The comforter is promised. The Greek word for comforter is (Parakleton) and is rendered “advocate” in 1 John 2:1. The word means “one ...read more

    The Gospel of John, with its long intricate discourses, written by a very old man many years later, is an illustration of the Inspiration and Illumination of Scripture.

    A man whose hobby was collecting old books was talking to a friend, who mentioned he’d just thrown out an old, tattered Bible while cleaning out the attic. “Who printed it, do you know?” the book lover asked. “Oh, someone named Guten- something,” he replied. “Gutenberg?!” the collector gasped. ...read more

    An examination of NT phrases for the receiving of the Holy Spirit in the Book of Acts.

    Welcoming the Spirit of Pentecost Acts 19:1-7 It is my heart that we encounter a re-visitation of the Holy Spirit through Pentecostal experience, not merely the recognition of an annual event on the Christian calendar, but a rekindled passion for God and the work, which He calls us to perform… Jack ...read more

    This is a revamp of a 1996 sermon I did. What does Jesus really mean when He tells us not to judge people? What do we need to do to obey it?

    INTRODUCTION • Can you tell me the one verse in the bible everyone seems to have memorized? • How many times have we just taken a look at another person and made a judgment about them. We take one look at them and we think that we know everything about them? • What about the times when we find ...read more

    It’s not saying you don’t like the Holy Spirit – learn the real truth about the blaspheme of the Holy Spirit.

    I have a recurring dream – a nightmare, really. It takes three forms – at least one of which I’m sure you are familiar.

    This is a basic overview of the doctrine of the Indwelling of the Holy Spirit within the Christian. We examine when, how, and why the Spirit dwells in the child of God.

    When one obeys the Gospel of Jesus Christ, they receive the Holy Spirit. Paul asked the Galatian brethren (3:2): "This is the only thing I want to find out from you: did you receive the Spirit from the works of the Law, or by hearing with faith?" The Spirit was not received through their ...read more
