    Contributed by Matthew Kratz on May 15, 2020
     | 5,457 views

    Foreshadowing the completion when we enter fully into the Father’s eternal heavenly kingdom, Ephesians 1:11-14 shows us 1) The Ground (Ephesians 1:11–13a), 2) The Guarantee (Ephesians 1:13b–14a), and 3) The Goal of our incomparable inheritance in Jesus Christ (Ephesians 1:14b).

    Ephesians 1:11-14 [11]In him we have obtained an inheritance, having been predestined according to the purpose of him who works all things according to the counsel of his will, [12]so that we who were the first to hope in Christ might be to the praise of his glory.

     | 4,244 views

    The Galatians, like the American church, were misled by the belief they could live as Christians through natural means; that being a Christian was something THEY could do in their own power! Paul protested that it was impossible!

I heard about a high school teacher named Mark Jordan who was pulled over by the police for speeding right in front of the High School where he works. 2.

    Receiving the power of the Holy Spirit is what empowers us to be witnesses to Jesus Christ in this world.

    Have you ever seen the power of the wind? Jesus tried to explain to Nicodemus about the Holy Spirit. “Born again? ~ Wind?” Nicodemus was even more confused after talking with Jesus than before.

    The Wizard of Oz advice was to look inside yourself to find yourself. That never works. God says: Look inside yourself and you will find the Holy Spirit. The first will get you to Kansas. The latter will get you to heaven. (Max Lucado) Pentecost changed lives then and now.

    Fill Your Horn With Oil & Go!

    Contributed by John Gaston on Oct 3, 2018
     | 21,300 views

    The oil is often the missing ingredient in spiritual ministry. We can’t be on the cutting edge of the Spirit without filling our horns with oil. The oil is symbolic of the anointing, unction, power, presence of the Spirit.

    FILL YOUR HORN WITH OIL & GO! 1 Sam. 16:1 INTRODUCTION A. HUMOR 1. Mr. and Mrs. Brown had two sons. One was named Mind Your Own Business & the other was named Trouble. 2.
