Let’s look at the Scripture which substantiates this: Acts 2:1-12 1 And when the day of Pentecost was fully ...read more

Good Vibrations - Part 2 Series

Contributed by Antonio Silveira on Mar 19, 2012

In order to understand the Spiritual World we need to become like children. Start learning again; overcome offence; and above all things we need the presence of God. We need to put God First and be filled with the Holy Ghost and FIRE!
