CHURCH NEWS AND OTHER FEATURES
Life in The Spirit
Seminar#7
(continued from last week)
Evangelist Rachel Thomas
“God is at work in you,
both to will, and to work for
his good pleasure” Not ours
(Phil. 2:13).” “May the God
of peace sanctify you wholly;
and may your spirit and soul
and body are kept sound and
soul and body be kept sound
and blameless at the coming
of our Lord Jesus Christ.
He who calls you is
faithful and he will do it.” (I
Thess 5:23-24). Just as Jesus
is the one who redeems us
and baptizes us in the Holy
Spirit, so too is he the one
who perfect us and not anoth
er. There is no part of our
lives, which Jesus does not
want to perfect in himself.
We must, for our part, allow
him to show us our imperfec
tions and allow him to change
us.
...Be an Overcomer through
Christ...
Here are some concrete
steps to take in order to help
you go on: Begin a neighbor
hood bible study class in your
home-( Adult or children)
Make a ministry of giv
ing out tracts. Start a seminar
in your own church. If you
truly desire in your heart. To
serve the Lord, he will give
you what he knows is best for
you.
What is the greatest
thing in a Christian’s life? It
is love! Love the Lord your
God, Love your neighbor,
and Love your enemies...
God is love!
God does not reveal what he
is doing.. .He reveals what he
is!!!
God has accelerated the
speed of life, and now we
must work faster, night is
coming when no man can
work
You will never advance until
you take a chance. Nothing
happens until you start
Take the first step in faith.
Jesus Christ makes it possi
ble. Faith starts us on success
Hope sustains us
Love sanctifies us
Faith is the action on the
word which God has sent-
Jesus is the Word!
True Christianity is
knowing Christ, not “After
the flesh,” but after the spir
it.” It is possible to know
many things about some
famous person and yet not
know that person. Many peo
ple today know a great deal
about Christ, but they do not
actually know him personal
ly-
They have never met
him, spoken to him, nor had
he speak to them. They know
of him according to the sens
es and the mind, but they do
not know him by the spirit.
(John 14:9). (John 5:39, 40)
knowledge of the scripture is
not sufficient. We must know
Christ, and we must know
him personally and by the
spirit.
We do not learn to know
Christ through our natural
senses but rather by our spir
it. This is why it is essential
for us to develop our spiritual
and to the fullest possible
level of maturity. Our ongo
ing knowledge of Jesus is
enhanced as we fellowship
with him in the spirit.
May God bless and keep
you always in his care.
