    The Works Of The Holy Spirit

    Contributed by Pastor Randall Timblin on Jun 11, 2017
     | 4,706 views

    The Holy Spirit has been designated as our Helper until we see our Lord and Master. But who is He? What does He want of us? How can He help?

    Who is the Holy Spirit; Is He a “He”; Is He an “It”; Is He some “Force”; and why is He here? These are some of the questions that I personally or others have asked me over the years. “He” is real; “He” is the Spirit of God and of Jesus Christ and “He” is not the “Force”, as in Star Wars. “He” is ...read more

In the reading we heard from Acts, we see an example of one of the earliest ordinations or commissioning services in the church. Of the five men Luke mentions, four were Jews born outside the Holy Land ...read more

    Jesus was led into the wilderness to be tempted. The Word is precise in stating that He was led by the Spirit. Why does the Spirit of God lead anyone to be tempted?
