    I can’t see your brain; but, I do believe that every one of you has one. The good news is that Jesus IS here and you DO have a brain. The bad news is that you may not use that good news or your brain by loving one another as Jesus loves to reveal that love to the world.

    Pentecost- Don’t Be "Holy Spirit Shy.”

    Contributed by Paul Andrew on May 11, 2022
     | 1,123 views

    The key is the realization that when the charis or gift of God is received, then the charismata should be in evidence.

    To confirm is related to the word “firm” as in to strengthen and reinforce. God confirms our faith so we can withstand a certain amount of force, to stand in opposition to the falsehoods and challenges manifested by the devil, and more positively, to witness to the Gospel. e.g. Owen Phelps said ...read more

    Tomás no debe ser condenado o incluso criticado por su insistencia en la evidencia empírica. Tomás proporciona un modelo ejemplar del cual podemos aprender más sobre la naturaleza de la fe convincente.

    Cuando pensamos en el apóstol Tomás, a veces pensamos en él de manera algo negativa. El evento que involucró a Tomás en Juan 20: 19-31 ha dado lugar a la frase, «no seas un Tomás tan incrédulo». El incidente que involucra el rechazo de Tomás de ...read more
