     | 7,848 views

    A sermon on the Holy Spirit in the age of the church, the new Christian age (Material taken from Dr. Jack Cottrell's books, Power From On High, Chapter 5, and The Holy Spirit: A Biblical Study, Chapter 3)

    HoHum: James Candlish says of the Old Testament era, "The general bestowal of the spirit as the source of holiness is spoken of as a thing of the future, one of the blessings of the promised reign of God over His people. In the theocracy in Israel, the spirit of God had been given to certain ...read more

    Perhaps one of the most important yet least understood truths of the bible is the infilling and baptism of the Holy Spirit. I have come to realise that this is an unchanging truth but as God has led me to a deeper knowledge and experience my understanding

    “Peace to you! As the Father has sent Me, I also send you.” And when He had said this, He breathed on them, and said to them, “Receive the Holy Spirit.” John 20:21-22 Perhaps one of the most important yet least understood truths of the bible is the infilling and baptism of the Holy Spirit.

    God has designed His born again people so that they may be empowered for glory & service. The church's glory will not be acquired by human might & power but only by the Spirit of the Lord

    ZECHARIAH 4:6-10 BY MY SPIRIT SAITH THE LORD [Ezra 4:1-5, 24] God has designed His born again people so that they may be empowered for glory and service.

    How we are kept by the Holy Spirit

    A little boy was sick on Palm Sunday and stayed home from church with his mother. His father returned from church holding a palm branch. The little boy was curious and asked, "Why do you have that palm branch, dad?" "You see, when Jesus came into town, everyone waved Palm Branches to honor him, so ...read more

    The Holy Spirit: The Gift Of Unity

     | 4,412 views

    Delivered in 1986, shortly after pastoral call. The Spirit gives us unity in a time of riskiness and danger. That gift is more than unanimity; it is dedication to God's purposes.

    Not everything in every sermon has to be communicated in words. Words and speech are only a part of the way you get a message across. A part of what you folks receive is not only what you hear, but also what you see. What you see and what you pick up just from being here is certainly a part of the ...read more

    They Believed In Spirit-Filled Preaching.

    Contributed by Ralph Jenkins on May 28, 2013
    based on 1 rating
     | 6,165 views

    I think it’s interesting that not until Peter was filled with the Holy Spirit that he began to preach. No preacher, should ever seek to preach without having been filled with the Holy Spirit.

    “They Believed in Spirit-Filled Preaching” Acts 2:14-41 In the last message from Acts we saw that the Apostles and first church believed in the Holy Spirit. They had waited for what the Father had promised, the indwelling and infilling of the Holy Spirit. There was no way they could ...read more

    They Were A Spirit-Filled Church Series

    Contributed by Ralph Jenkins on May 28, 2013
     | 8,949 views

    We have before us today a picture of the model church. You’ve heard me say; “if our church could be any kind of church our church wanted to be what kind of church would our church be?” The answer is found here in Acts 2:42-47.

    They Were a Spirit Filled Church Acts 2:42-47 We began our study in Acts 1-2 with the idea that God was able to do so much in and through the first church because of their belief. They believed in all that Jesus ever began to and teach, they believed in the resurrection, they believed in the ...read more

    Revelation Through The Holy Spirit

    Are you spending quality time with your Creator and having an intimate walk with Him? Considerable time in the presence of God will facilitate us not only to be spirit filled but have the mind of Christ.

    Opening illustration: It has been said, “Any idiot can be complicated; but it takes genius to be simple.” Indeed, the most effective oral and written communicators are those who take profound truths and make them simple. This has bearing on every area of our lives. When we communicate ...read more

    Flesh And Spirit And Cleverness For The Gospel

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Jul 7, 2013
     | 5,419 views

    We must listen to the Spirit of God rather than our weak minds and wills so that we can bear the fruits of the Spirit and with cleverness spread God's kingdom.

    Today’s Scripture readings offer a number of challenges and difficulties to the Christian. On the face of it, it appears that Jesus is applauding a dishonest steward’s actions in cheating his employer. Worse, He seems to be telling His disciples that the ends justify the means. Of ...read more

    I got this idea from reading a sermon that i saw on sermon central. Then i just went with teh holy spirit as he lead me. I looked at the ministry of the Holy spirit.

    THE MINISTRY OF THE HOLY SPIRIT Part 1. John 16:7-15. Of all the great stuff that the Bible teaches the Ministry of the Holy Spirit is the one that most people have a problem with. Let me say that I know that I am not an expert, but there ...read more

    The book of Acts doesn’t end with any benediction nor closure. Listen to the last two verses. Acts 28:30-31NKJ Then Paul dwelt two whole years in his own rented house, and received all who came to him, 31 preaching the kingdom of God and teaching the th

    Is the Holy Spirit some sort of supernatural force in the universe? No, He is more than that, He is as much God as the Father and the Son and He has a ministry in the New Testament. Today we look at the ministry of the Holy Spirit to the non-believer.

    Introduction The Trinity, the Great Three in One, as we look at these three we can understand the thought process somewhat of a father, we all have had fathers here on earth, some good, some not so good. I was blessed to have a good father and he taught me a lot. We are all sons, so we can is ...read more
