    We will consider how the Lord’s church started and what’s significant about it. In this text, I see these things: 1- powerful spirit 2- pointed message 3- penitent response

And the answers they get from themselves or others are not very positive so they don’t go to ...read more

    Today, the power gifts remain available as a part of God’s plan for His church, and are increasingly being manifested within the ’Body of Christ’ around the world. They are given to the body of Christ as valuable helps to accomplish works of ministry.

    Opening illustration: Reflect on my first experience at Nizwa of how hesitantly I discovered and used the charismatic gifts of the Holy Spirit in faith. It just blew me away. The secret was praying without ceasing, fasting, practicing holiness and being sensitive to heed and obey the Holy ...read more

    Worship Is A Verb!

    Contributed by Scott Coltrain on Mar 31, 2017
     | 5,712 views

    Worship services are first and foremost to offer worship to God through Christ Jesus, rather than satisfy the attendee. Many have lost sight of the fact that Church services are more about the attendee giving than receiving.

    “I used to attend congregational worship services but I quit because I got nothing from it.” “Church is boring.” “When I sit in the pew during church services, I think about how much more I could be accomplishing if I had stayed home.” Through the decades, I have heard a multitude of people ...read more

    You may be rejected right from God's body! Hard to believe or imagine? When we are lukewarm, He'll do it... Spue You Go!

    I know… Spue doesn’t even seem like a word, right? I mean, maybe it should be spelled spew, or something. Well, the word spew is pretty close to the context of this writing, but spue is actually the word Jesus used to describe just how aggressively He will reject you! Wait… Jesus rejects ...read more

    The greatest gift we can receive is the gift of salvation. But God's gift giving does not end there. God provides us with gifts that enhance our lives and build up the body of Christ, the church.

    The Power Of The Tongue

     | 4,995 views

    There have never been words spoken more powerfully than in the beginning when God created the heavens and the earth.

    The spoken word can be extremely powerful. When humans speak, it can literally mean life or death. If I mention a few words of famous speeches, most senior Americans can readily recall the heart of the message. As time regressive examples: “I have a dream,” by Martin Luther King, 1963.

    Several folks were challenged, and changed by this Word! All believers are positionally overcomers but when we obey we are experiential overcomers and this is why His commands are not burdensome.
