This thing called church
The document discusses what the church is and its purpose. It defines the church as the "called out ones; distinct, holy; set apart for God’s divine purposes" based on biblical passages. The church's main purposes are to equip believers for ministry, build up the body of Christ, foster unity, and cultivate spiritual growth and edification according to Ephesians 4:11-16. Additionally, the church is valuable for transforming people and perfecting God's love in them through keeping His word.
Acts 4, 32 27
This document discusses the marks of a gospel-centered church based on passages from Acts 4. It describes how the early church in Acts was of one heart and soul and shared possessions in common (unity), the apostles powerfully testified to Jesus' resurrection (testimony), there was no one in need as they generously shared their wealth (giving), and Barnabas, whose name means encourager, sold land and gave the money to the apostles (encouragement). Reclaiming gospel-centeredness involves enjoying these graces of unity, testimony, giving, and encouragement that flow from focusing on the gospel.
"Novena" of the Holy Spirit with text of saint John Eudes
The document outlines a nine-day novena focusing on the Holy Spirit based on the writings of Saint John Eudes. Each day has a theme and includes prayers, hymns, meditations and invocations related to that theme. The themes are: Jesus sending the Holy Spirit, what the Holy Spirit is not, the Holy Spirit as the heart of the Holy Trinity, the Holy Spirit as the heart of Jesus, the Holy Spirit glorifying Jesus through believers, the Holy Spirit and Mary, the Holy Spirit leading the Church, the Holy Spirit in the life of believers, and the Holy Spirit as the source of holiness for Christians.
Serving as God’s Light in this Broken World
This document is a sermon about serving as God's light in a dark world. It discusses how Christians are called to arise and shine their light (Isaiah 60:1-3). It says the world is in deep darkness due to things like fear, deception, wars, and natural disasters. It encourages Christians to let the glory of God be seen through their transformed character, as they listen to and obey the Holy Spirit's voice and see things from God's spiritual perspective. The sermon concludes with a call to prophetic prayer.
DiscipleShift (Part 1)
A study of Matthew 5:3-16, how the Sermon on the Mount must be view from outside the box of religion, the attitudes and blessings of being a disciple of Jesus, and the three word pictures that Jesus used to explain the role of a disciple in society.

Vintage adventof jesusishope_12.1.13
The document contains summaries of several Bible passages that discuss themes of hope, salvation, and new life. It describes how Simeon recognized Jesus as the Messiah who would bring salvation for all nations. Romans and 1 Peter discuss how suffering can produce perseverance and hope through God's love and the resurrection of Jesus. Revelation depicts a vision of a new heaven, new earth, and New Jerusalem where God dwells among his people and wipes away all tears caused by death, mourning, crying or pain.
The Beatitudes
Jesus went up on a mountain where his disciples joined him. He then taught them the eight beatitudes:
1) Blessed are the poor in spirit for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.
2) Blessed are those who mourn for they shall be comforted.
3) Blessed are the meek for they shall inherit the earth.
4) Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness for they shall be filled.
5) Blessed are the merciful for they shall obtain mercy.
6) Blessed are the pure in heart for they shall see God.
7) Blessed are the peacemakers for they shall be called sons of God.
8) Blessed
The process
The document discusses spiritual growth and falling away from God. It provides two biblical passages about how spiritual growth occurs naturally but imperceptibly like plants growing from seeds. It then quotes that faith does not usually disappear suddenly but rather fades slowly as cynicism and apathy take hold, similar to an ember dying in a fireplace, without a conscious decision to stop believing. People just stop caring about their faith over time.
The God of Sore Thumbs
The document discusses several Bible passages about God calling his people to be set apart and holy. 1 Peter 2:9 refers to Christians as a chosen people meant to praise God who called them out of darkness. Leviticus 11:44-45 commands God's people to consecrate themselves and be holy as God is holy. 1 Corinthians 2:14 notes that those without the Spirit cannot understand spiritual things revealed by the Spirit. The document suggests Christians should stick out from others as peculiar or holy.
Touching heaven and changing earth - sermon about Open Heaven
The document discusses Jesus opening heaven and changing earth through the power of the Holy Spirit. It references Jesus' baptism, when heaven was opened and the Holy Spirit descended upon him, and Pentecost, when the Holy Spirit came upon the disciples and they were empowered to be Jesus' witnesses. The Holy Spirit brings healing, signs and wonders, and empowers believers to continue Jesus' work on earth.
The where. call and context edited
1. The document discusses who is called to missions work. While some say everyone is called, the New Testament does not contain a general call for missionary volunteers.
2. Those called are more specifically those who are "sent" and "given" particular gifts for different roles, as discussed in Ephesians 4. This includes apostles, prophets, evangelists, shepherds and teachers.
3. A missionary is defined as someone who is sent with authoritative message, like an apostle. Several people in the New Testament like Barnabas and Silas are considered missionaries though not traditional apostles.
Honor the Least
The Prophet's reward is an truth that has often been exploited for personal gain, while the truth about honoring the least is conveniently ignored. When we HONOR THE LEAST, we honor Christ. Would doing so bring any less of a reward than honoring a prophet? Is the prophet greater than Christ? This message addresses common fallacies concerning the prophet's reward and takes us to what Jesus really called us to do, in honoring one another.

Comparison of Two Ancient Temples
The parable describes the kingdom of heaven as being extremely valuable, like a treasure hidden in a field or a pearl of great price. When someone discovers this treasure or pearl, they are willing to give up everything they own in order to possess it. The kingdom of heaven is so valuable that one should be willing to make any sacrifice necessary to enter it.

Pass on the baton
For a Christian man or woman, we have a task to be like a runner who is carrying a baton which is the faith in Jesus Christ. It is also important to pass the baton of faith to our children- no inheritance is more valuable than this. Our goal is to ensure that the baton of faith will be passed on from generation to generation so that God's 'Plan of Salvation" for the whole world is achieved.

The document discusses the importance of searching the scriptures to find truth, searching yourself through self-examination, searching for an honest man of integrity, searching to understand God and his divine nature through his creation, and searching for Jesus Christ as the Messiah through carefully examining prophecies and following those who bear witness to him. The key message is that the search should continue through diligently studying the scriptures, continual self-reflection, seeking people of virtue, contemplating God in nature, and following those who point to Christ.
Vintage first corinthians_7.27.14
1. Paul discusses the different gifts and roles within the church body, noting that while gifts differ, it is the same Spirit and God who empowers them all for the common good.
2. He explains that just as a human body has many parts working interdependently, so too the church body has different members with different functions but all working together under Christ with the unifying Spirit.
3. Paul emphasizes that all parts are valuable and necessary for the proper functioning of the whole body, and that members should care for one another across differences in gifts or roles.
Bible verse
Meditating the word of god that gives life in our lives.
Meditating on God's Word will give you a greater understanding of what God wants from and for you, thereby providing you with guidance. Reading of God's promises and mighty deeds can give you comfort during times of trouble and an enhanced sense of joy.
How long should you meditate for?
Mindfulness-based clinical interventions such as Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR) typically recommend practicing meditation for 40-45 minutes per day. The Transcendental Meditation (TM) tradition often recommends 20 minutes, twice daily.
Why is 4 AM the best time to meditate?
The most auspicious times to meditate are at 4 AM and 4 PM. It is said that the angle between the earth and the sun is 60 degrees and that being in a sitting position at these times will balance the pituitary and pineal glands giving you maximum results.
The Backstory: giants, demons, spiritual warfare, and APEST Part 3
In this presentation we will cover how the mystery of Christ, the principalities and powers, and spiritual warfare are tied in with APEST, and how we can respond.
The Backstory: giants, demons, spiritual warfare, and APEST Part 1
Ever wonder why Paul introduces APEST by quoting a battle Psalm describing Israel's battle against a giant named King Og - an infamous gatekeeper to the realm of the dead? Ephesians 4:8-10 is one of the most cryptic verses in all of Paul's writings. But if we read closely, we'll discover that Paul is framing APEST within God's cosmic - and ongoing - battle with evil. If you think APEST is just another personality profile, think again. APEST equips us to actively participate with Christ in overcoming the rulers, authorities, cosmic powers, and spiritual forces of evil. In this presentation we explore what giants, demons, and spiritual warfare have to do with the five-fold giftings of APEST, and why it matters.
Why We Need the Baptism of the Spirit
Jesus was filled with the Spirit. That's why He could do what He did in ministry. He is our model. Every Christian should try to imitate Jesus and be filled and baptized with God's Spirit. This message tells you the what, why and how of this topic.

In this presentation we explore what what "led captivity captive" really means and how an accurate understanding of this phrase can unlock what Paul is trying to communicate with this phrase in Ephesians 4:8-10.
16. the bride
This document discusses the symbolism of the church being the bride of Christ. It asserts that in 1844, Christ entered the most holy place of the heavenly sanctuary to be married to the New Jerusalem, which represents His union with the church. It states that Christ loves the church and gave Himself for it. The church is composed of true believers who are citizens of the New Jerusalem. When Christ returns, He will consummate His blessed union with His church. The sealing of God's people represents their marriage to Christ. The judgment prepares God's people to receive the seal and be part of Christ's eternal bride.

Job acknowledges that worshipping the sun or moon would be sinful, as it would deny God who is above all creation. Hebrews 1 then explains that after God spoke through prophets in the past, He has now spoken definitively through His Son Jesus Christ. It describes Christ as the heir of all things and the one through whom God made the world, upholding all things and purging humanity's sins so He could sit at the right hand of God in heaven, with a name more excellent than angels.
The Inner Man
This document provides a summary and commentary on Ephesians 3:14-21, which describes Paul's prayer for believers. The summary is as follows:
1) Paul prays that believers will be strengthened with power through God's Spirit, allowing Christ to dwell in their hearts through faith.
2) Paul asks that believers be rooted and grounded in love, comprehending the vastness of Christ's love.
3) The passage expresses that God is able to do infinitely more than anyone could ask or imagine according to His power working within them.
Mal 1_6-14 Honoring God
The document discusses the book of Malachi in the Bible and its message about honoring God. It summarizes that Malachi calls the Israelites to deepen their relationship with God rather than just practice religion. It criticizes the priests of Malachi's time for failing to properly honor God in their sacrifices and instead honoring people more. The document argues that today Christians are called to be priests and the bridge between God and people, so all their decisions should be made to honor God like Jesus did as the ultimate priest.

Why do we praise God?
This document discusses why we praise God based on Ephesians 1:3-14. It summarizes that God chose us, predestined us for adoption as his children, redeemed us through Jesus' blood, forgave our sins, lavished his grace upon us, revealed his plan to us, provided an eternal inheritance, sealed us with the Holy Spirit, and guaranteed our inheritance. The overall message is that we should praise God for all the spiritual blessings and riches he has freely given us in Christ, according to his grace and for his glory.
01 Praise God
God has done many things according to the document:
1. God created everything, including man, and had a plan for redemption before creation.
2. God prepared a redemption plan that included Jesus' sacrifice on the cross to save humanity from sin.
3. God offers salvation to everyone and gives both the desire and faith to obtain salvation.

New Anointing Coming
The document discusses preparing one's heart and life for spiritual renewal and revival through being anointed by God like Jesus was. It encourages being willing to follow Jesus' example in ministering to the poor, brokenhearted, captive and oppressed, which may require sacrifice and changing one's life. Revival demands confessing sins, praying for each other, and is difficult work but can bring healing and spiritual awakening.

1. The passage from Isaiah 61:1-4 describes how God has anointed and sent Jesus to bring good news to the poor, freedom to captives, and comfort to those who mourn.
2. It says God has sent Jesus to proclaim a time of favor and God's vengeance on enemies.
3. Jesus will give beauty for ashes, joy instead of mourning, and plant people like trees to bear fruit for God's glory.
Glory (Updated)
Some things get better with prayer. Such is what happens when you are study the revelation of God's glory. Yes God does want to glorify a people and bring them to heavenly places. A foretaste of heaven is on offer and through faith in Jesus we may access it.
God desires to sanctify us with His glory and the cross paid the price and through the resurrection of Jesus and His ascension into glory we are assured that it will be done in God's people.
The holy spirit garment of praise
The document discusses the concept of a "garment of praise" mentioned in Isaiah 61:3. It provides several biblical commentaries and perspectives on what it means to wear a "garment of praise" and how praising God can overcome a "spirit of heaviness." Key points include:
- A garment of praise refers to outwardly displaying praise and thanksgiving to God, similar to how a garment is visible. It can transform one's psychological state from sadness to joy.
- Regularly praising God through song, as David and others did, can lead to an "irreversible blessing" from God.
- A spirit of heaviness or fainting is a demonic spirit
The Glory of the Lord Episode 5 The Shekinah Glory and Omnipresence of God.pptx
THE FIRE OF GOD'S PRESENCEPTUK June 29, 1899, page 406By comparing Isaiah 33:14-16 with Psalm 15:1-5 and 24:1-5, it will be seen that the people who dwell with the devouring fire and the everlasting burnings, are the same people that "ascend into the hill of the Lord," and abide in His tabernacle. Thus it must be that the everlasting, devouring fire is in the tabernacle, the secret place, of God. That is exactly the case. Let us collect a few texts of Scripture that show this.
Verse 11 of this chapter, according to Lowth's reading, says, "My Spirit, like fire, shall consume you." This agrees with Isaiah 11:4: "He shall smite the earth with the rod of His mouth, and with the breath of His lips shall He slay the wicked," and 2 Thessalonians 2:8, which says that the Lord shall consume "that wicked" "with the Spirit of His mouth."
"Our God is a consuming fire." Hebrews 12:29. He descended on Mount Sinai in fire (Exodus 19:18), and spoke to the people "out of the midst of the fire." Deuteronomy 4:12; Verse 22. "From His right hand went a fiery law for them." Deuteronomy 33:2.
The Lord "sitteth between or upon the cherubim." Psalm 99:1. When He drove Adam and Eve out of the garden of Eden, "He placed at the east of the garden of Eden cherubim and a flaming sword, which turned every way, to keep the way of the tree of life." Genesis 3:24. This was the indication of His own presence; to this place Adam and his family came to worship, and from here Cain went out from the presence of the Lord.
The Lord reigns in righteousness, and "a fire goeth before Him, and burneth up His enemies round about," and the hills melt like wax at the presence of the Lord. Psalm 97:1-5. So when Christ comes, it is "in flaming fire taking vengeance on them that know not God, and that obey not the Gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ." 2 Thessalonians 1:8. So at the last, when the wicked are all gathered together to do battle against God and His people, fire comes down from God out of heaven, and devours them. Revelation 20:8, 9. In Isaiah 30:33 we have read that "the breath of the Lord, like a stream of brimstone" kindles Tophet.
God covers Himself with light as with a garment (Psalm 104:2), and dwells in light that no man can approach unto. 1 Timothy 6:16. When Isaiah saw the Lord, sitting on His throne, "the house was filled with smoke" (Isaiah 6:4.), indicating the presence of fire; and this is still further indicated by the fact that the beings that stand above His throne are the "Seraphim," that is, "the burning ones." Remember also that God went before Israel, to guide them, in a pillar of fire by night and a pillar of cloud by day.
In this Presence, amid this fire, the saints of God will dwell throughout eternity, but in order that they may do this, they must here become accustomed to the glory of God, of which the whole earth is full. By beholding it they become changed into the same image "from glory to glory," even by the Spirit of the Lord. 2 Corinthians 3:18. The presen

Announcements 16 Dec 2012
The document provides the order of service for the third Sunday of Advent at St. Barnabas (Chester) Anglican Church located in Toronto, including readings, hymns, prayers, and announcements for upcoming church events and activities through the Christmas season.
15. the true nature of the shaking
The document discusses the true nature of the shaking that was prophesied by Ellen White. It argues that the shaking is the work of the investigative judgment, where God separates the wheat from the tares. During this time, God's people experience an affliction of the soul where they plead for forgiveness and cleansing. Jesus then provides a special atonement or cleansing for His people, removing the record of their sins and clothing them in His perfect righteousness. This final atonement experienced during the judgment is what prepares God's people to receive the latter rain and give the loud cry.
Announcements 30 Sept 2012
This document provides the order of service for Back to Church Sunday on September 30, 2012 at St. Barnabas (Chester) Anglican Church.

The service aims to faithfully witness to Jesus and embrace the community.
11. the glorious state of the church
1. The document discusses the glorious state of the church during the latter rain, which follows a shaking or sifting of the church.
2. It describes how the faithful will sigh and cry over the sins in the church, and will be sealed as they afflict their souls.
3. After the shaking removes the unfaithful, the latter rain will revive God's people and the church will appear "fair as the moon, clear as the sun, and terrible as an army with banners."
Rev 12-the-real-wonder-woman
This document provides an overview and analysis of key passages in Genesis and Matthew related to the seven-day creation week and Jesus' teachings on the Sabbath. It notes how each day of creation involved separation or distinction, and draws parallels between these acts of separation and gospel themes. It also summarizes Jesus' confrontation with the Pharisees over their corruption of the Sabbath, and his teaching that the sign of Jonah is the only sign that will be given to that generation.
Call of duty - spiritual warfare
True Christianity will always be aggressive, and wherever it exists, it will arouse enmity. All who live a conscientious life, who bear testimony of the claims of God, of the evil of sin, of the judgment to come, will be called the disturbers of Israel. {PC 146.2}
If we will consent to lay down our arms, to lower the blood-stained banner, to become the captives and servants of Satan, we may be released from the conflict and the suffering. But this peace will be gained only at the loss of Christ and heaven. We cannot accept peace on such conditions. Let it be war, war, to the end of earth's history, rather than peace through apostasy and sin.
If unity could be secured only by the compromise of truth and righteousness, then let there be difference, and even war. {GC88 45.2}
Those who in harmony with God, and through faith in Him, receive strength to resist wrong, and stand in defense of the right, will always have severe conflicts and will frequently have to stand almost alone. But precious victories will be theirs while they make God their dependence. Their moral sense will be keen, clear, and sensitive. Their moral powers will be equal to withstand wrong influences. Their integrity, like that of Moses, of the purest character.
Build In Front of You (part 1)
The document discusses Isaiah 61:1-11 and building the church through serving the community. It summarizes that the passage talks about deliverance, righteousness, peace, joy, God's presence, healing, and comfort. It then quotes Timothy Keller saying the church should be the best church for the community rather than just having a great church. It concludes by listing 7 ways to "build in front of you" such as praying and building with those who need God's liberty, upholding God's standards for the poor and oppressed, being peace-loving, choosing joy, inviting God's presence, praying for healing, and spreading comfort.

21. the last message of mercy in isaiah 58
This document contains excerpts from Ellen White on the topics of Isaiah 58, the condition of the world, justification by faith as the third angel's message, revealing God's character of love, helping the needy world, and more. Key points include:
- Isaiah 58 outlines God's chosen fast of loosening bands of wickedness and letting the oppressed go free.
- Justification by faith is the message of Christ's righteousness that prepares the way for His second coming, which is the glory of God in the third angel's message.
- God's people are called to reveal His character of love by manifesting His grace in their lives and helping those in need.
The holy spirit as dew
This is a collection of writings on the Holy Spirit as the promised dew from heaven that would fall on His people and bless them.
13.01.04 exegesis epiphany - is. 60.1-6, eph.3.1-12, mt. 2.1-12, psalm 24
The document discusses the Feast of Epiphany, which celebrates God revealing himself as human in Jesus Christ. It centers around the visit of the Magi, guided by Scripture and a star, finding and worshiping Jesus with gifts of gold, frankincense, and myrrh. Through Jesus' incarnation and the preaching of his word to all nations, God manifests himself and calls people out of darkness into his light. The feast emphasizes how Christ reveals God to the world through his physical presence and the proclamation of the gospel in the church.

Trusting God's Providence | Verse: Romans 8: 28-31
Trusting God's Providence.
Providence - God’s active preservation and care over His creation. God is both the Creator and the Sustainer of all things Heb. 1:2-3; Col. 1:17
-God keep His promises.
-God’s general providence is toward all creation
- All things were made through Him
God’s special providence is toward His children.

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
