peace and a rejoicing in the confidence of one day sharing in the glory of God (Rom. 5:1-2). He portrays a guaranteed resolution or confidence and a sure hope that is certain of fulfilment because of the guarantee of realization in the gift of the Holy Spirit already fills the heart of those who love God. This was the same confidence that Abraham had with his promise to father a great nation that would bless the entire world (Rom. 4:17-21). He exhorts the believer to rejoice for they have the…

earth”(Matthew 12:40). After his three days in the grave, Jesus resurrects allowing Jesus to return to Earth he neither needed aid, rescue, or to flee from anything. He did not run away with the boon, but resurrected to give “…commands through the Holy Spirit to the apostles whom he had chosen. He presented himself alive to them after his suffering by many proofs, appearing to them during forty days and speaking about the kingdom of God” (Acts 1:2-3). Through the reassurance and spreading of the…

While at Newcastle Emlyn Evan became a strong believer “Baptism of the Spirit”; this basically means that instead of being baptised in water we should be baptised in the Holy Spirit. Evan started speaking at some small meetings. These small meetings are what eventually became the Revival. People started showing up at these meetings in the thousands and within two weeks the meetings…

individuals and helping them discern where their place was within this community. After a few of these encounters, I became attentive of where the Church as a whole was being called to serve. Through monthly preaching, I affirm the work that the Holy Spirit is already doing, while also prompting the Church to build upon this work as it lives into its…

surrendered to the Spirit of God. My body was jerking, and I recall the evangelist walking around me and praying. I did not know what he was praying, but I knew I needed help. After more prayer, the evangelist reached down and said, "Spirit of performance, be gone!" and he lightly touched my forehead again. My body became completely still and the peace that passes understanding enveloped me, which is exactly what I had asked God to give me. The evangelist then prayed for the Holy Spirit to fill…

To be holy we first need to know our nature (original sin).Then we need to follow Jesus words: “Deny thyself, take up thy cross and follow Me”.

Luther stated the idea that Christian’s should not have temporal authority or law since they can rule themselves with the guidance of the Holy Spirit. However those who are not Christian’s must have temporal authorities so they do not implement their wicked deeds. Luther wrote, Temporal Authority: To What Extent It Should Be Obeyed in 1523 for the Duke of Saxony, John the…
