    based on 4 ratings
     | 2,250 views

    In the church, a lot of confusing language is used to try and explain or define things.

    Today we will look at the Trinity, often defined as "one in ‘essence,’ three in person." What does that mean exactly? God is three Persons, and the name 'God' implies one ‘essence.’ If God is "three Persons," how can there be "one" ‘essence’? The meaning of the ...read more

    Why The Bible Shows The Holy Spirit In Symbols? Series

    Contributed by Patrick Usifo on Jul 7, 2023
     | 1,330 views

    A symbol is like a picture that speaks volumes about things that words cannot describe.

    Sometimes people inadvertently deploy iconic expressions to cut short the necessity of employing so many words in tactful discussions. For example, people often say a picture is worth a thousand words. This expression immediately brings up the image that a picture can reveal more intimate details ...read more

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

    Contributed by Paul Andrew on May 11, 2022
     | 1,233 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
