Church Supernaturally: Staying on Message

God has given me the responsibility of serving His church by proclaiming His entire message to you. This message was kept secret for centuries and generations past, but now it has been revealed to God's people.(Colossians 1:25-26 NLT) As I was cruising through Colossians this morning, I was arrested by this concise statement from Paul. What … Continue reading Church Supernaturally: Staying on Message

Church Supernaturally: Last Days Strategy

Let your gentleness be known to all men. The Lord is at hand. (Philippians 4:5 NKJV) This verse has intrigued me since I first read it in 1979.  This translation has “gentleness” as the quality we are to demonstrate to others as the Day of the Lord approaches.  The King James Version has it “moderation.” … Continue reading Church Supernaturally: Last Days Strategy

Church Supernaturally: If…, Then…

 I am shocked that you are turning away so soon from God, who called you to Himself through the loving mercy of Christ. You are following a different way that pretends to be the Good News but is not the Good News at all. You are being fooled by those who deliberately twist the truth … Continue reading Church Supernaturally: If…, Then…

Church Supernaturally: Christmas Spirit

Happy Sunday!  I always feel as if the first Sunday in December begins the "Christmas Season."  I used to be a Scrooge about the whole thing, but a few years ago I felt impressed to get myself in a frame of mind to take advantage of the opportunities Christmas provides. I began by making up … Continue reading Church Supernaturally: Christmas Spirit

Building People of Substance for Works of Power The Holy Spirit is an action kind of Guy. In the New Testament He is described as doing all kinds of stuff.

De la Abundancia del Corazon

Martes, Noviembre 27, 2018 Construyendo personas de sustancia para obras de poder En 1983, cuando estaba a punto de salir de la escuela Bíblica, El Espíritu Santo me hablo por medio de hablar en lenguas e interpretación, me dijo, “una vida vivida egoístamente, es una vida desperdiciada, la única razón para el hombre de vivir … Continue reading De la Abundancia del Corazon

Church Supernaturally: Seek the Lord

And it is impossible to please God without faith. Anyone who wants to come to Him must believe that God exists and that He rewards those who sincerely seek Him.  (Hebrews 11:6 NLT) In our day, most of us have come to believe that God is a rewarder.  We believe He loves us and wants … Continue reading Church Supernaturally: Seek the Lord

Church Supernaturally: But for the Grace…

Dear brothers and sisters, if another believer is overcome by some sin, you who are godly should gently and humbly help that person back onto the right path. And be careful not to fall into the same temptation yourself. Share each other's burdens, and in this way obey the law of Christ. If you think … Continue reading Church Supernaturally: But for the Grace…

Church Supernaturally: Don’t Feed the Corpse

Now the works of the flesh are evident, which are: adultery, fornication, uncleanness, lewdness, idolatry, sorcery, hatred, contentions, jealousies, outbursts of wrath, selfish ambitions, dissensions, heresies, envy, murders, drunkenness, revelries, and the like; of which I tell you beforehand, just as I also told you in time past, that those who practice such things will … Continue reading Church Supernaturally: Don’t Feed the Corpse
