Baptism with the Holy Spirit

The introduction to the meaning of worship in spirit and in truth defines a person’s relationship and experience or encounter with God. Therefore, the two key ideas that was of interested in the book review was: what worship is and what worship is not. Worship is spiritual, therefore, the evident of true worship has to come from the heart, mind, and soul of a person. The heart, mind, and soul are components of spiritual transformation in a relationship with Jesus Christ. Secondly, worship is…

believe that without the words of God in our lives we are really empty. I think it is helpful to read it and apply it in the life. The Bible is free from error in all it affirms and unfailing in its purpose. I have in my religion the Quran, which is the holy book of Islam and is viewed by Muslims as the direct word of God. The Qur’an will lead us to the Paradise. 2- Spiritual reading is an important point in the growth of virtue directing. Spirituality focuses on the existence of God in this…

One truth in my own life I have become very well acquainted with is that it is through the struggles and trial that the Lord often does His greatest work. Throughout my life, as a child growing up in ministry, I have had to learn the struggles of being raised as a pastor’s child. In this journey not only have I faced many challenges; I learned what it meant to be truly set free and make Jesus my Lord, not just my Savior. I have been able to receive His calling on my life through these struggles…

My amazing trip to Falls Creek. My essay is about my awesome trip to Falls Creek, it will be about the long bus rides, the camp and the activities we played, and the worship.

The long bus rides The scenery was the best part, it was a five or six hour bus ride so it was far out. There were huge hills that looked like mountains and you drove in it on a bus, it…

Descartes seeks to explain the existence of God in his meditations. The first instance that he is seen trying to explain the existence of God is in his first meditation which is emphasized in the firth mediation. Descartes argues that the there is a source for ideas in the first meditation and in the firth meditation, he seeks to enhance his first meditation by digging deeper. Although he proposes and defines his arguments, many philosophers have argued that Descartes’ arguments are baseless and…

Respect and Tolerance After reading Laudato Si and Pacem in Terris and discussing their major concepts with the class, the most memorable and realistic goal that resides with me is respect and tolerance of each individual. The idea of treating everyone in our paths as if we are in the presence of God seems simple enough to comprehend, but proves to be immeasurably difficult for the vast majority of the population. The difficulty may prove true for various reasons; however, this should not be…

Dr. Outlaw spoke on Christopher Wright’s missional hermeneutic, and he addressed the question: “How can systematic theology be used to reach people cross culturally?” Despite language barriers, different cultures communicate in different ways. Therefore, complexities will obviously arise from ministering in a cross cultural context.

In this psalm, David praises God, but he still cries out to God for deliverance. These concepts confuse many people. In everyday life, people are confused why Christians can praise God through trials. David has probably been furthering this confusion through this psalm. However, I believe that David’s praise of God illustrates that God is worth following and knowing even if our worldly circumstances do not change. In fact, following God can sometimes cause worldly circumstances to become worse,…

Blows My Mind If we shall be found guilty of anything on the Day of Judgement, it will not be because we believed too much but that we believed too little about all the things God intended for us to experience in this lifetime and eternity.
