    God is going to do a new thing. It won’t fit in our expectations, or in our rules.

    36 He told them this parable: "No one tears a patch from a new garment and sews it on an old one. If he does, he will have torn the new garment, and the patch from the new will not match the old. 37 And no one pours new wine into old wineskins. If he does, the new wine will burst the skins, the ...read more

    Why Jesus Wants Us To Be Initiators Instead Of Remaining As Passive Recipients

    based on 25 ratings
     | 8,735 views

    The Lord expects us to initiate opportunities with the power of the Spirit to bring others to a saving and growing faith in our Lord Jesus. It is not enough to passively receive what He gives freely. "Freely we have received, therefore, freely give."
