    In our passage Peter gives the correct answer to the questions how to be saved and how to receive the Holy Spirit, for both have the same answer.

    A look at seeking to excel in the edification and building one another up in the faith.

    “Pursue love. However, keep on eagerly seeking the things of the Spirit.” (1 Cor 14:1 CJB) Salvation makes the Christian complete in Christ (Col 2:10). ALL that the Father is, Jesus is. “All the fullness of the Godhead bodily” dwells in Jesus Christ, and Holy Spirit dwells within the Christian ...read more

    True spirituality, and our confession of Jesus.

    CONCERNING SPIRITUALS. 1 Corinthians 12:1-3. “Now concerning spirituals,” begins this passage (1 Corinthians 12:1). This may be masculine, ‘spiritual people’. However, given the emphasis away from individualism to “Jesus is Lord” (1 Corinthians 12:3), it is more likely to be neuter, ...read more

    Heirs of God, joint heirs with Christ.

    THE WITNESS OF THE HOLY SPIRIT. Romans 8:14-17. It is only those who are led by the Spirit of God who are manifested to be “the sons of God” (Romans 8:14).

    Better That Christ Go To The Father

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on May 28, 2022
     | 773 views

    As we enter this week before Pentecost, we are reminded today why Jesus told us it’s better for us that He go to the Father.

    Monday of 7th week in Easter Acts 19: 1-8/John 16: 29-33 I suspect that we are all like the early Christians, like Mary Magdalene, wanting to cling to Jesus, wanting to be able to touch him and see him and hear his voice speaking words of love and tenderness and reassurance. Especially now when ...read more

    God's Spirit Is Poured Onto A Wilderness Series

    Contributed by Reuben Bredenhof on Jun 5, 2022
     | 5,339 views

    The Spirit is poured out from on high, “and the wilderness becomes a fruitful field.” It’s like the change from a dry desert into garden land. When God sends his Spirit, He begins to produce good fruits. That’s the sure effect of his work: a harvest for God.

    If you looked back on the thirty-two chapters of Isaiah before our text, what would stand out about the people of God? How could we describe the nation of Judah in this book, and what they’ve shown themselves to be like? It’s not a flattering picture. Back in the very first chapter, the very first ...read more

    The presence of God in His church makes the difference.

    It was the day of Pentecost. It was the time of the year when all good Jews would take part in a glorious time of celebration. Pentecost had been in existence for centuries and was a time when all Jews would come before God making their offerings of Thanksgiving for the harvest of the year. As the ...read more
