Manifested Presence of God, The (eBook)

The apostle, Peter, spoke of “times of refreshing from the presence of the Lord”. (Acts 2:19-21) Taken in context, Peter is saying that before Christ returns at the end of this present age, there will be “times of refreshing”, and that these times would “come from the presence of the Lord”. What we call “revivals”, or “outpourings of the Spirit”, are in fact God-appointed “times of visitation” of the manifested presence of God. Thus, God manifests His presence throughout church

Bible-Written Words of God, The (eBook)

The Bible – the New and Old Testament scriptures are the Self-revelation of God – Father, Son, and Spirit. Only in these scriptures do we find the mysteries of God, including “the mystery of Christ”, revealed, and His “eternal purposes” prophesied. We need “diligent workers” like Paul. Indeed, every believer must be diligent in the study of scripture. I am convinced that, particularly in the age in which we live, the  adjective, “biblical”, has become of  utmost importance. It is definitive, separating true Christianity from

Seeing Christ (eBook)

Christ-centered Typology for Revelation of Christ, Relationship with Christ, and Reflection of Christ “Typology” – a term given to a method of interpreting the Old Testament scriptures in light of the New Covenant, was used by the apostolic writers of the New Testament. This approach to understanding the Old Testament is based on the principle Paul the apostle gives in 1 Corinthians 15:46, “The spiritual is not first, but the natural; then the spiritual.”. There are many symbols – “types”,

Foundation of the Apostles & Prophets, The (eBook)

In this article, I am focusing on the adjectives, “apostolic” and “prophetic”, rather than the nouns, “apostle” and “prophet”. My goal is a more Christ-centered perspective and understanding of the phrase, “the foundation of the apostles and prophets” (Ephesians 2:20-22), as well as, what it means to “lay” that Foundation. (1 Corinthians 3:10-11)

Christ is Prerequisite for Church (eBook)

Foundation Stones (eBook)

Joined to the Cornerstone Knowing & Experiencing Christ in, and by, and through Sound Doctrine Throughout the Old Testament, we see stones placed as memorials of experiential encounters with the Lord. In the New Covenant also there are foundational “stones”, as it were – foundational experiences of Christ. We need to be “devoted to the apostles teaching” which “lays the Foundation” of Christ. There are foundational doctrines upon which we should build our spiritual house, so we need to “take heed

Who Is This King of Glory? (eBook)

The title of this message is a question found in Psalm 24: “Who is this King of Glory?” In Matthew’s gospel we find Jesus asking a question of His disciples: “Who do people say that I am?” And a little later in Matthew’s gospel, Jesus is coming into the city of Jerusalem, and the crowd of people is asking: “Who is this?” In these passages, the people called Jesus “the Christ, the Son of the living God”, “the Son of

Seeing the Kingdom Through the Cross (eBook)

To understand the kingdom of God, we must understand the mystery of Christ, who is the King of that kingdom. If we seek the kingdom of God and do not enter into the mystery of Christ, we have not entered into the kingdom, and will misrepresent the kingdom of heaven in the world. By and large, the Church in the Western nations has failed to see and enter the kingdom of God, and therefore is misrepresenting the King and His
