     | 11,456 views

    Every Christian possesses the fruit of the Holy Spirit; we have to nourish them so they grow. The fruit are positive characteristics; gifts; we cannot manufacture them, and certainly cannot witness without displaying them.

    Galatians 5: 22-23 The Fruit of the Spirit The contrast is stark the sinful nature results in: sexual immorality, impurity, debauchery, idolatry, witchcraft, hatred, discord, jealousy, fits of rage, selfish ambition, dissentions, factions, envy, drunkenness, orgies, and the like, in other words, ...read more

     | 2,631 views

    All of us here will try to solve problems and face situations using our own strength, but the truth of it all is that if we do not allow the Holy Spirit to give us conviction and guide us, then we will fail.

    Like I said last week, we all live with a certain level of stress. Due to our responsibilities and obligations, on a daily basis we are pulled in different directions. And as we were able to determine, the weight of these things slowly begins to fall on our shoulders and that causes our faith to ...read more

    God loves us as we are, but He also loves us too much to leave us that way.
