Holy Spirit

Everyone, including unbelievers, has his own mask which he makes and wears. This mask is used to cover up what is inside, sin. Even our appearances are used as masks. I believe this applies to not only believers. Another key theme in this book is grace in several of its different aspects. In April of 2016, I began working in the deli of a grocery store. I got to know my coworkers well for over four months. They all seemed to be doing well. Specifically, Marshall did his job well. He…

This report is about the “Excluded Middle”. When talking about worldview one point of view someone may think God and Human when, in fact, this can be categorized as seen and unseen. The excluded middle, though, can be explained to someone by explaining that this is how someone can bridge the gap between the spiritual world and the earth today. Many people groups and religions show this bridge in different ways, such as worship. How do you define worship is a very tricky subject dependent of…

I personally enjoy order, but in a way where the Holy Spirit can make the service His and not ours. This may be wrong in some theologians eyes, but I am still learning and as for right now, I want the Holy Spirit to humble the church and bring us to have listening ears for what He wants. This is what brings out my ENFP personality because I like to see the big picture and go by what I feel rather than logic. Balancing the work of the Holy Spirit with organization has always been somewhat of a…

when you eat from it you will certainly die.” In the New Testament, the world sees the arrival of Jesus, sent by His Father, to die on the Cross for the sins of the world. He spreads the message of salvation through Him, and confronts sinners with Holy Scriptures. In the book, Competent to Counsel, Jay E. Adams states that Christian counseling…

What role should "argument" (via the Weston text) have in the discipline of evangelism and the practice of preaching? What aspects of your ministry formation do you need to cultivate in order to effectively wield this tool in a proper and God-fearing manner? First, the principal purpose of preaching the gospel is to offer a theological interpretation of the word of God into our lives. In the text book argument is defined as, “means to offer a set of reasons or evidence in support of a conclusion…

worship as” the formal, official worship service of Catholicism, is the most important and sacred act of worship in the Catholic Church. Going to Mass is the only way a Catholic can fulfil the Third Commandment to keep holy the Sabbath day and the only regular opportunity to receive the Holy Eucharist.” The Mass incorporates the Bible (Sacred Scripture), prayer, sacrifice, hymns, symbols, gestures, sacred food for the soul, and directions on how to live a Catholic life — all in one ceremony. An…

The 7th principle “The imitation of Christ is the goal for all pastoral counseling”, and in order to be an imitator of Christ we must yield the Holy Spirit and the Word of God (Howard, n.d.). I expect to learn to be more like Christ and yield to the Holy Spirit in the coming weeks. Likewise, understanding my calling in the counseling ministry, how to use solution-focused and short-term counseling, understanding counselee that are on prescription drugs…

ministry to the lost is not that which has the power to save them. Author Dave Wheeler states, “Not enough can be said about the supreme importance of the Holy Spirit on convincing and convicting the lost person of sin, righteousness, and judgment. Unless this work occurs, a nonbeliever does not, cannot experience salvation” (p. 152) Thus the Holy Spirit convicts and convinces sinners of sin, righteousness, and judgment; and to draw sinners to Christ. The evangelist’s role is to simply tell of…

scriptures from different translations and consider the potential areas of discussion. Once again, I pray. This time that God gives me the wisdom to hear what God has for me to preach on and to hear the needs of God’s people. My aim is to be open to the Holy Spirit to direct me on either one of the scriptures, or if there is another topic that would better meet the needs of the congregation at that time. For example if there had been a tornado that had affected the community and parishioners I…
