     | 212 views

    The baptism of the Holy Ghost is not only to dwell within us but to empower us. Scripture clearly shows that while the Holy Spirit baptizes us into the Body of Christ at conversion, Jesus Himself baptizes us with the Holy Ghost for power and service.

    The Baptism of the Holy Ghost: God’s Progressive Revelation Introduction The baptism of the Holy Ghost represents one of the most significant promises in Scripture—God's plan to dwell within His people and empower them for service.

    The Radical Call of the Gospel: This message is not about what the world teaches, but what Jesus demonstrates. The cross teaches us that mercy triumphs over judgment.

     | 4,405 views

    An invitation is presented to accept a 21 day challenge, and embark upon a complaint-free life and help build a complaint free church and a complaint free world—one person at a time.

    I know how easy it is to complain, to find dissatisfaction with a situation or circumstance. In the 1970s, TV’s Saturday Night Live program, one of their skits involved "The Whiner Family."

    After being sent out in teams, the disciples shared their stories with Jesus and he invited them to rest. We too are called to work hard, share ’Jesus’ stories and to rest.

     | 6,211 views

    There are many excuses we can offer for not accepting the invitation to come to the banquet which God has prepared, but none of our excuses are valid because Jesus deals with them all.

    Friends in the Lord, One thing you can guarantee when you have Jesus over to your place for dinner is that the table conversation will always be very interesting. Which is exactly what is happening in our text. But the teachings of Jesus aren’t recorded just because they are “interesting”. The ...read more
