WALKING BY THE SPIRIT
WALKING BY THE SPIRIT By Fred Trokie The Purpose for Walking in the Spirit: To provide a way for believers in Jesus Christ to have daily victory in regards to their Christian life, and to bring them to spiritual maturity so they may bring glory to God in all that they do. Definition of the word “Walk” Greek word “περιπατέω” (peripateo – Strongs# G4043) Means to: regulate ones life by, and to live under it’s control. HOW SHOULD WE WALK? Walk Worthy of the Lord – Colossians 1:9-10 9 For this reason also, since the day we heard of it, …
The Rapture – Old Testament Types and Shadows
This is a comprehensive look into a pre-tribulation rapture from the Old Testament. It includes typology from Genesis, Exodus, and Ruth. It is well-researched and will certainly bless you as you see how God has shown, in advance, types and pictures of the coming rapture. Please enjoy this as Pastor Charlie breaks down these often […]
“Come unto me.” Matthew 11:28
“Come unto me.” Matthew 11:28 The cry of the Christian religion is the gentle word, “Come.” The Jewish law harshly said, “Go, take heed unto thy steps as to the path in which thou shalt walk. Break the commandments, and thou shalt perish; keep them, and thou shalt live.” The law was a dispensation of terror, which drove men before it as with a scourge; the gospel draws with bands of love. Jesus is the good Shepherd going before his sheep, bidding them follow him, and ever leading them onwards with the sweet word, “Come.” The law repels, the gospel …
OUR SAVIOR
When Jesus came, He was so much more than people expected. And the same salvation He offered then, He offers now. OUR SAVIOR Isaiah 53(KJV) 53 Who hath believed our report? and to whom is the arm of the Lord revealed? 2 For he shall grow up before him as a tender plant, and as a root out of a dry ground: he hath no form nor comeliness; and when we shall see him, there is no beauty that we should desire him. 3 He is despised and rejected of men; a man of sorrows, and acquainted with grief: and …
How does The Shepherd and the Sheep illustrate Yeshua the Messiah and Universal Church?
The major passage for the first illustration is John 10:1-39, which contains the discourse on the Good Shepherd. 1. Ten Specific Points All together this passage makes ten specific points. First, John emphasized that it is the Messiah who came in by the door in verses 1-2: Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that enters not by the door into the fold of the sheep, but climbs up some other way, the same is a thief and a robber. But he that enters in by the door is the shepherd of the sheep. The point of these verses is …
THE JEWISHNESS OF CHRISTMAS
My father never liked Christmas. When our family would drive into the Italian and Irish neighborhoods of Brooklyn, to look at the Christmas lights, he refused to join us. He couldn’t understand how anyone could believe in a virgin birth. Moreover, he associated the celebration of Christmas with the anti-Semitism of his small village in […]
Christmas Story: For the Man Who Hated Christmas
By Nancy W. Gavin It’s just a small, white envelope stuck among the branches of our Christmas tree. No name, no identification, no inscription. It has peeked through the branches of our tree for the past ten years. It all began because my husband Mike hated Christmas. Oh, not the true meaning of Christmas, but the commercial aspects of it – overspending and the frantic running around at the last minute to get a tie for Uncle Harry and the dusting powder for Grandma – the gifts given in desperation because you couldn’t think of anything else. Knowing he felt …
UNASHAMED TO SHARE THE GOSPEL
Never be ashamed to share the best news that was ever offered to mankind. It could change someone’s eternal destiny UNASHAMED TO SHARE THE GOSPEL 2 Timothy 1:6-12 (KJV) 6 Wherefore I put thee in remembrance that thou stir up the gift of God, which is in thee by the putting on of my hands. 7 For God hath not given us the spirit of fear; but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind. 8 Be not thou therefore ashamed of the testimony of our Lord, nor of me his prisoner: but be thou partaker of the …
Why is there no mention of the Messiah’s father?
The Servant, the Messiah describes His calling in Isaiah 49:1: Listen, O isles, unto me; and hearken, ye peoples, from far: Jehovah has called me from the womb; from the bowels of my mother has he made mention of my name: The verse begins with a call for the whole world to listen to what the Servant has to say. He then points out that He, the Servant, the Messiah, was elected by God for this specific mission: Jehovah has called me from the womb; from the bowels of my mother. It is interesting to note that, while there are …
Paris is Burning. – by Hal Lindsey
Paris is burning. I’m not talking about the controversial 1990s film. I’m talking about Paris, France. Burning. Well, the city isn’t burning, but there is plenty of fire in the streets. Especially the Champs Elysées. Massive protests have shut down major parts of the country over the past several weekends. In fact, on a recent Saturday, the French government deployed almost 100,000 police officers to contain the demonstrations. The protesters are called “yellow vests.” They are wearing the yellow safety vests that French law requires all motorists to carry in their cars to be worn in case of a roadside …
The Politically Correct Christmas Pageant
Dr. Mike Murphy Despite every effort by the local school board, the parents insisted that the story of the Nativity was going to be a part of the Oakdale Christmas Pageant this year. But with the parents insistence, the board also became insistent, demanding that certain changes would have to first be made. So both sides decided to sit down, so the school board could tell the parents exactly what they had in mind. As the story of that night in Bethlehem was read, you could see the school board officials starting to squirm in their seats. And as the …
