Slides accompanying a sermon on the baptism and filling of the Holy Spirit, preached at Plymouth Meeting E.C. Church on Oct. 11, 2015 by Pastor Bob Brown.
Our God is neither seeking praise and worship singing specialists, nor is He seeking pastors, teachers of the Word, prophets, evangelists, servants, christian converts etc.. He is seeking sons and daughters who will spend quality time in the intimacy of His presence, beyond the veil, in His chambers, and take the time to lay their hearts against His and listen as He whispers kingdom secrets.

We know the dictionary definition of worship (a feeling, or devotion to a deity), and we have read John 4:24, "God is a Spirit: and they that worship him must worship him in spirit and in truth"; but, what does the Bible teach us about the subject of worship? This is a series of lessons that gets to the heart of worship and what it really means for Christians.
Why should we go to church? Can't we celebrate God in nature, or even watch TV church? What is the church anyway? How does it relate to being a Christian? Aren't churches just a group of hypocrites, anyway?

Tomorrow we are starting a new series of study:
“The New Man” is a seminar that will focus on the spirit of man, its soul and its body.
We will learn the properties of each one of these three parts of man.
Our spirit is called to be the ruling part of us, actually, our spirit is the main part of our being, and is the place where the spirit of God dwells in.
We meet in Room #3 at CTF Toronto Wednesdays from 7:00 – 9:00 pm. I invite you to come and participate with us in this discovery of how to let our spirit become the ruler of our life.

“For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, these are sons of God.” (Romans 8:14)
Exactly how are we be led by the Holy Spirit?
Exactly how does the Holy Spirit communicate to all of us in this life?
If the Bible calls the Holy Spirit our Guide and Teacher in this life, then this means He will attempt to communicate to all of us from time to time.
Otherwise we will never be able to pick up from Him exactly what He is trying to teach us or tell us to do.
The very first thing we need to know if we want to learn how to be led by the Holy Spirit is that
We can develop a direct personal relationship with Him
Just like you already have with God and Jesus.
Here are two key verses from the apostle Paul telling us that we are allowed to have direct communication and direct fellowship with the Holy Spirit Himself:
“The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ, and the love of God, and the communion of the Holy Spirit be with you all.” (2 Corinthians 13:14)
“Therefore if there is any consolation in Christ, if any comfort of love, if any fellowship of the Spirit …” (Phillippians 2:1)

The Holy Spirit indwells us to connect us to God, baptizes us into the church body, and fills us to draw closer to Him while equipping us to love and serve others. Are you ready to live a life desperate for God, trusting Him completely?

" faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen." Did you notice that faith involves "evidence" of things "not seen"? The marginal rendering of "substance" is "assurance." Faith involves an assurance "of things hoped for." But, if something is hoped for, that something has not yet been received. Therefore, where faith is involved, there is an assurance that it will be received!
THE ROYAL INVITATION
His Majesty, the King of the Universe, requests the honor of your presence
at the Royal Wedding of the Ages (Rev. 19:7)

with whom He will fill you (Joel 2:28–29; Eph. 5:18), and
Wash you in the water of His Word (Eph. 5:25–26)
so that you may be used (2 Tim. 3:16) to tell others about this glorious feast.
As a token of His love for you,
you will be given a ring to seal you as His own (Eph.1:13)
as He rejoices over you,
His bride (Isa. 62:5),
and clothes you in the wedding garments of
salvation and righteousness (Isa. 61:10)

slides that accompany a sermon with a football theme. This sermon is one in a series on discipleship. It tells what it takes to be a disciple of Jesus.
In Jude 17-23 Jude shifts from piling up examples of false teachers from the Old Testament to a series of practical exhortations that flow from apostolic instruction. He preserves for us what may well have been part of the apostolic catechism for the first generation of Christ-followers. In these instructions Jude exhorts the believer to deal with 3 different groups of people: scoffers who are "devoid of the Spirit", believers who have come under the influence of scoffers and believers who are so entrenched in false teaching that they need rescue and pose some real spiritual risk for the rescuer. In all of this Jude emphasizes Jesus' call to rescue straying sheep, leaving the 99 safely behind and pursuing the 1.
