Spirits Of Pentecost

Contributed by Dale Pilgrim on Sep 2, 2006

The Holy Spirit offers his influence but he does not guarantee his empowerment. If we are not prepared to exercise the proper spirit toward the Spirit we will lose the intended blessing and anointing of God.

¡§Scrooge¡¨ is a classic story that emphasis the ¡§what¡¨ against ¡§what if¡¨. It is the story of a wealthy, miserly businessman who does not know any joy in life nor wills for anyone else to taste the same. He use to have heart but it died some years before. The spirits of Christmas past, present ...read more

Pentecostal Power Series

Contributed by David Henderson on Aug 31, 2009

This message points to the awesome power seen at Pentecost and the power available to us today. In this message I also draw an analogy between the story of the Tower of Babel and Pentecost. There are many notable differences.

The Power of a Changed Life Pentecostal Power Acts 2: 1-21 back in the OT we find a very interesting story about the building of the tower of Babel.

Preaching At Pentecost, Series

Contributed by Brad Beaman on Aug 11, 2008

The world calls it foolishness. The preaching of the Gospel is the power of God.

It is a foolish thing to preach a sermon. When you stand up and tell people that they are lost and that their only hope of salvation rests in the crucifixion and resurrection of Jesus that in the world’s way of thinking is foolishness. Not that standing before people and talking is foolishness. ...read more

26 Pentecost A

Contributed by Roger Haugen on Nov 15, 2002

17 Pentecost A

Contributed by Roger Haugen on Sep 12, 2002

Contributed by Roger Haugen on Sep 27, 2002

The Power Of Pentecost

Contributed by J. Yeargin on Nov 28, 2006

Many Christians are not experiencing Pentecost for a number of reasons, but perhaps the greatest reason is because they are unaware of how rich and powerful it would make their lives.

THE POWER OF PENTECOST Last week we looked at THE PURPOSE OF PENTECOST and we found that it is much more than exciting music and a motivational message. Pentecost will certainly: • Bring to us more of God’s power to live our daily lives, • Take us to a higher place of worship, • Cause us to ...read more
