The document discusses the biblical concept of laying on hands to impart the Holy Spirit. It provides several biblical references to support the idea that the Holy Spirit is given through the laying on of hands, including accounts from Acts where the apostles laid hands on new believers who then spoke in tongues or prophesied. The document also addresses questions about whether receiving the Holy Spirit is automatic for believers, when the best time for laying on hands is, whether there is evidence of receiving the Spirit, and the ongoing importance of spiritual gifts.

"He has given us of His Spirit" Part 2Dave Stewart
In this lesson we’ll learn a little bit more about the Holy Spirit. We’ll discuss the person of the Holy Spirit, and His role in miracles, conversion and understanding the Word. This lesson was influenced by the writings of Wayne Jackson (https://www.christiancourier.com/articles/29-false-ideas-about-the-holy-spirit) and Jim McGuiggan (http://www.jimmcguiggan.com/reflections3.asp?status=The+Holy+Spirit&id=361).
The first item in The Christian and Missionary Alliance church's Statement of Faith. The role of the Bible as foundational and unquestioned. Meant as part of a study of our church's statement of faith
Is this old expression in the Bible? Can Christians say that this expression is true? Moses told Joshua to be strong and courageous. Jesus told us to fear not. Paul faced persecution.
Around the world, church buildings, many of them beautiful cathedrals, are being repurposed in many different ways - sometimes into locations for activities condemned by the Church.
Don't live out your relationship with God according to what others tell you. God wants to be closer to you than anyone else. And He will always provide everything you need. There are too many so-called church leaders who really don't care about you or God.
The Bible stands alone as an incredible ancient book. It is forcefully substantiated by thousands of ancient copies and thousands of fulfilled prophecies. It has always been powerful.
God created all we know, and all we can possible know, including His very thoughts today. But how He reveals this information to the hearts of individuals is like the wind. It can't be institutionalized.
Almost 2,000 years ago the Paul, the Apostle, traveled to the city of Corinth in what is now Greece and founded a Christian church there. That city still exists. Paul loved and obeyed Jesus dearly.
That Jesus Christ died because He was crucified is a well-established historical fact. Anybody who looks close enough will find the truth. Why was His death necessary? Why follow an executed criminal?
What you say is very important to God. He is not casual about spoken words. Your words are your fruit, your produce, and you are known by the fruit you bear. Do your words give life? Or are they poisonous? You choose your own words.
Historical Context for the Bible: RevelationRick Bruderick
It is wise to consider the historical context in which are found the actual events of the particular Bible passages we are studying. The first book we present is the last book of the Bible, the Revelation of the Lord Jesus Christ.
Focus on where you WANT to go. Fix your eyes on your target. Why? Because you will certainly go to what you are looking at. But you can decide where to look.
When American founders declared independence from England, they did it with reference to God the Creator. What was their motive? How is independence important in Christians today?
The Bible records events in which Jesus discusses His mother. He gave public credit to His followers for being His mothers and His brothers. Spiritual mothers should be honored.
God gave Moses the 10 Commandments, and hundreds of other laws. Human institutions always create rules, commandments, laws and bylaws to keep their members institutionally moral.
The One who made Heaven and Earth and all of us who dwell here didn't plan on it being permanent. It will all be destroyed, with only a few survivors. Who survives? Those who love God.
The world is a dangerous place, especially for those who are called to love God and neighbor. Will you be attacked and suffer? If Jesus would have protected Himself, there would be no Easter to celebrate.
In northern Kentucky, along I-75, is a full-scale replica of Noah's Ark and, just 30 minutes away, along I-275, is the Creation Museum. These sites are committed to the literal Holy Bible.
The authorities in our lives expect our silence and agreement. If we speak up, we will be punished, excluded, or worse. God expects us to fear Him above all others. Jesus taught the same.
Jesus demonstrated what it means to serve others and the early Church demonstrated what it means to serve each other. If we call ourselves Christians, then we become servants to others.

It seems that current missionary work requires spending a lot of money, preparing a lot of materials, and traveling to far away places, so that it feels like missionary work. But what was the result they brought back? It's just a lot of photos of activities, fun eating, drinking and some playing games. And then we have to do the same thing next year, never ending. The church once mentioned that a certain missionary would go to the field where she used to work before the end of his life. It seemed that if she had not gone, no one would be willing to go. The reason why these missionary work is so difficult is that no one obeys God’s words, and the Bible is not the main content during missionary work, because in the eyes of those who do not obey God’s words, the Bible is just words and cannot be connected with life, so Reading out God's words is boring because it doesn't have any life experience, so it cannot be connected with human life. I will give a few examples in the hope that this situation can be changed. A375

Acts 19:1-7 While Apollos was at Corinth, Paul
took the road through the interior and arrived
at Ephesus. There he found some disciples
and asked them, “Did you receive the Holy
Spirit when c you believed?” They answered,
“No, we have not even heard that there is a
Holy Spirit.” So Paul asked, “Then what
baptism did you receive?” “John’s baptism,”
they replied. Paul said, “John’s baptism was
a baptism of repentance. He told the people
to believe in the one coming after him, that is,
in Jesus.” On hearing this, they were
baptized into d the name of the Lord Jesus.
When Paul placed his hands on them, the
Holy Spirit came on them, and they spoke in
tongues and prophesied. There were about
twelve men in all.

I Corinthians 14:26-32 What then shall we say,
brothers? When you come together, everyone has
a hymn, or a word of instruction, a revelation, a
tongue or an interpretation. All of these must be
done for the strengthening of the church. If
anyone speaks in a tongue, two—or at the most
three—should speak, one at a time, and someone
must interpret. If there is no interpreter, the
speaker should keep quiet in the church and
speak to himself and God. Two or three prophets
should speak, and the others should weigh
carefully what is said. And if a revelation comes to
someone who is sitting down, the first speaker
should stop. For you can all prophesy in turn so
that everyone may be instructed and encouraged.
The spirits of prophets are subject to the control
of prophets.

I Corinthians 14:1-5,14,15
Follow the way of love and eagerly desire spiritual
gifts, especially the gift of prophecy. For anyone
who speaks in a tongue does not speak to men but
to God. Indeed, no one understands him; he utters
mysteries with his spirit. But everyone who
prophesies speaks to men for their strengthening,
encouragement and comfort. He who speaks in a
tongue edifies himself, but he who prophesies
edifies the church. I would like every one of you to
speak in tongues, but I would rather have you
prophesy. He who prophesies is greater than one
who speaks in tongues, unless he interprets, so
that the church may be edified.
For if I pray in a tongue, my spirit prays, but my mind
is unfruitful. So what shall I do? I will pray with
my spirit, but I will also pray with my mind; I will
sing with my spirit, but I will also sing with my
mind.

Romans 11:29 for God’s gifts and his call are
irrevocable.
Hebrews 2:1-4 We must pay more careful
attention, therefore, to what we have heard,
so that we do not drift away. For if the
message spoken by angels was binding, and
every violation and disobedience received its
just punishment, how shall we escape if we
ignore such a great salvation? This
salvation, which was first announced by the
Lord, was confirmed to us by those who
heard him. God also testified to it by signs,
wonders and various miracles, and gifts of
the Holy Spirit distributed according to his
will.
