A Thankful Spirit Series

Contributed by Glenn Pease on Mar 10, 2021

A thankful spirit encourages others to see the positive in their own lives, and so being thankful is a ministry in a world where the bad news is thrown at us so often we tend to forget the good news. We need people with a thankful spirit to remind us that light is as real as the dark

The more I study the history of man and the sea, the more grateful I become that I am a landlubber. Tens of thousands of lives have been lost in ship wrecks in my lifetime.

The Indwelling Spirit Series

Contributed by Glenn Pease on Mar 28, 2021

The Indwelling Spirit Series

Contributed by Glenn Pease on Apr 3, 2021

Paul says, "If anyone does not have the Spirit of Christ, He does not belong to Christ." We must possess the Spirit to be possessed by Christ. He must be ours if we are His. Mutual possessing and mutual indwelling is what salvation is all about.

Indwelling has a variety of meanings. It can mean that matter indwells matter as a kernel or fruit within a shell. A yoke indwells the white and both dwell within the shell. It can refer to a situation where one substance is intermixed with another, as with salt and water, or medicine within your ...read more

Spirit Of Lying Series

Contributed by I. Grant Spong on Nov 4, 2021
