The sermon explores Jesus giving the apostles authority to heal and cast out demons, and their initial mission to the lost sheep of Israel. It emphasizes seeing the spiritual harvest as Jesus did, with compassion.

Fruits are the result of a process as the Holy Spirit works in a believer's life, while gifts are abilities freely given to believers to serve God.

The document provides encouragement to say no to discouragement and open our hearts to God by relying on Him through faith, prayer, Bible study, and church attendance. It lists several biblical principles: return to God when feeling astray; radiate happiness and love for others as Jesus taught; rely only on God, not people or possessions, as He never disappoints; rejoice in God through praise and worship; and open your heart to Jesus through hearing and obeying the gospel call to salvation.
The Us Series #8 - 29 September 2019 - Bruce McCallum
This document discusses self-control and how to regain it. It provides biblical passages about self-control and the importance of building "the wall of self-control." It lists triggers that can lead to a lack of self-control like hunger, anger, loneliness, and tiredness. To regain self-control, one should: depend on Jesus, acknowledge issues, forget the past, talk back to feelings, believe change is possible, make oneself accountable, and avoid temptation. Maintaining self-control is important for leadership and living a godly life.
Spiritual warfare Part V - Victory in Christ
Victory in Christ comes from our position in Christ at salvation, then in faith yielding and surrendering to Him in total obedience, renouncing the ground that we have given Satan and evil spirits
Spiritual warfare Part V - Victory in Christ
This document provides guidance on spiritual warfare and helping those experiencing demonic oppression find freedom in Christ. It recommends that the individual accept Christ, renounce sin and false teachings, forgive others, and reject pride. Prayer, Scripture reading, and praise are emphasized as the most important tools. The goal is permanent freedom as the individual walks daily with God, not dependence on others. Victory may not be instant, as continued growth in surrender to Christ is important.
Daily devotionals for spiritual growth
An inspirational collection of biblically based daily devotions to enhance your spirit, faith, and walk with God.
The Quest for Holiness - Develop Godly Character: Live Holy
This document is from a Bible study lesson on developing a godly character to live a holy life. It discusses avoiding evil influences, allowing God to reshape one's heart, and growing Christian virtues like faith, goodness, knowledge, and love. The key point is that holiness is a continuous journey that requires daily growth in becoming more like God, not a finish line. One must constantly pursue maturity and draw closer to God.

The Significance of the Locust Army in Revelation 9
The Book of Revelation, filled with symbolic and apocalyptic imagery, presents one of its most striking visions in Revelation 9:3-12—the locust army. Understanding the significance of this locust army provides insight into the broader themes of divine judgment, protection, and the ultimate triumph of God’s will as depicted in Revelation.
sanskrit yoga mantras chanting for yoga class
Introduction
Mantra Yoga is an exact science. "Mananat trayate iti mantrah- by the Manana (constant thinking or recollection) of which one is protected or is released from the round of births and deaths, is Mantra." That is called Mantra by the meditation (Manana) on which the Jiva or the individual soul attains freedom from sin, enjoyment in heaven and final liberation, and by the aid of which it attains in full the fourfold fruit (Chaturvarga), i.e., Dharma, Artha, Kama and Moksha. A Mantra is so called because it is achieved by the mental process.
Lição 12: João 15 a 17 – O Espírito Santo e a Oração Sacerdotal | 2° Trimestr...
Esta lição é uma oportunidade para discutirmos um assunto multo mal interpretado no contexto cristão, que é o fato de algumas pessoas pensarem que o conhecer Jesus é ter a nossa vida mudada em todas as áreas, como se Deus tivesse o dever de transportar-nos deste mundo para um outro mundo onde muitas coisas maravilhosas que desejamos seriam reais. No entanto, a nossa fé não nos tira do mundo após nos convertermos; ao invés disso, permanecemos vivendo sob as mesmas circunstâncias. O propósito de Deus não é nos tirar do mundo, mas nos livrar das ações do maligno (Jo 17.15), Sendo assim, a vida eterna não significa estar fora da realidade deste mundo, mas conhecer o único Deus verdadeiro (Jo 17.3).
THE IMPORTANCE OF AWARENESS AND CONSCIOUSNESS
The subject of spiritualism fundamentally relates to two specific tenets, independent yet closely associated as one—awareness and consciousness.
Astronism, Cosmism and Cosmodeism: the space religions espousing the doctrine...
This lecture created by Brandon Taylorian (aka Cometan) specially for the CESNUR Conference held Bordeaux in June 2024 provides a brief introduction to the legacy of religious and philosophical thought that Astronism emerges from, namely the discourse on transcension started assuredly by the Cosmists in Russia in the mid-to-late nineteenth century and then carried on and developed by Mordecai Nessyahu in Cosmodeism in the twentieth century. Cometan also then provides some detail on his story in founding Astronism in the early twenty-first century from 2013 along with details on the central Astronist doctrine of transcension. Finally, the lecture concludes with some contributions made by space religions and space philosophy and their influences on various cultural facets in art, literature and film.

Is Lucid Dreaming Dangerous? Risks and Benefits!
Lucid Dreaming: Understanding the Risks and Benefits
The ability to control one's dreams or for the dreamer to be aware that he or she is dreaming. This process, called lucid dreaming, has some potential risks as well as many fascinating benefits. However, many people are hesitant to try it initially for fear of the potential dangers. This article aims to clarify these concerns by exploring both the risks and benefits of lucid dreaming.
The Benefits of Lucid Dreaming
Lucid dreaming allows a person to take control of their dream world, helping them overcome their fears and eliminate nightmares. This technique is particularly useful for mental health. By taking control of their dreams, individuals can face challenging scenarios in a controlled environment, which can help reduce anxiety and increase self-confidence.
Addressing Common Concerns
Physical Harm in Dreams Lucid dreaming is fundamentally safe. In a lucid dream, everything is a creation of your mind. Therefore, nothing in the dream can physically harm you. Despite the vividness and realness of the dream experience, it remains entirely within your mental landscape, posing no physical danger.
Mental Health Risks Concerns about developing PTSD or other mental illnesses from lucid dreaming are unfounded. As soon as you wake up, it's clear that the events experienced in the dream were not real. On the contrary, lucid dreaming is often seen as a therapeutic tool for conditions like PTSD, as it allows individuals to reframe and manage their thoughts.
Potential Risks of Lucid Dreaming
While generally safe, lucid dreaming does come with a few risks as well:
Mixing Dream Memories with Reality Long-term lucid dreamers might occasionally confuse dream memories with real ones, creating false memories. This issue is rare and preventable by maintaining a dream journal and avoiding lucid dreaming about real-life people or places too frequently.
Escapism Using lucid dreaming to escape reality can be problematic if it interferes with your daily life. While it is sometimes beneficial to escape and relieve the stress of reality, relying on lucid dreaming for happiness can hinder personal growth and productivity.
Feeling Tired After Lucid Dreaming Some people report feeling tired after lucid dreaming. This tiredness is not due to the dreams themselves but often results from not getting enough sleep or using techniques that disrupt sleep patterns. Taking breaks and ensuring adequate sleep can prevent this.
Mental Exhaustion Lucid dreaming can be mentally taxing if practiced excessively without breaks. It’s important to balance lucid dreaming with regular sleep to avoid mental fatigue.
Lucid dreaming is safe and beneficial if done with caution. It has many benefits, such as overcoming fear and improving mental health, and minimal risks. There are many resources and tutorials available for those interested in trying it.

Requirements for effective soul winning
- 2. 1) A soul winner must be saved : Luke 6: 39 2) A soul winner must holy, a vessel unto honor: II Tim. 2:20 a) In speech: Col. 4:6, > avoids gossip: Jas. 1:26, James 3:5-18 Soul winners must be very careful because sometimes soul winning time or visitation can end up in a gossip session. Sometimes the prospect may begin to talk about other people so the soul winner should know how to get the conversation back to the topic.
- 3. >Avoids cursing or filthy speech Col. 4:6, Prov. 25:11 Do not get into an argument with the prospect. Always be tactful and calm. Avoid the trap of talking against other religions. We should make sure that the prospect will not be offended and will still be open to the next soul winner. > Avoid lying and deceit: Prov. 12:22, Eph. 4: 25 Avoid making false promises to your prospect or he will be discouraged and will not believe you anymore. Make sure to show up on every appointment and try to be on time as well. Sometimes we are expert in sharing Bible but we cannot back it up with good character.
- 4. b) In apparel: I Timothy 2:9 James 1:27 People should not be confused about our identity as Christ- ians. An effective soul winner should obey the precepts of the Bible and one of them is decency in the way we dress. Our way of dressing should never be identified with worldly people because it grieves the Holy Spirit. If the Holy Spirit is grieved, He will not teach us or help us so all our efforts will be useless.
- 5. c) In our way of life/ lifestyle Eph. 5:3-5 > Uncleanness refers to the books we read, the movies we watch, our friends >Covetousness: a strong desire after the possession of worldly things. Any ex- cess of our basic needs is covetousness. We should ask God to give us wisdom to determine when enough is enough. People around us should not look at us and conclude that we are covetous. Covetousness can be manifested by our food. Do we eat in expensive restaurants often? Our clothes: do they have to be signature? Do you have a lot but still want more? Our gadgets: do they have to be the latest model? Our appliances? Furniture? accessories? Shoes?
- 6. 3) A soul winner should be prayerful: Acts 4:31, John 15:5, Eph. 6: 12 Prayer is the most important ministry of a Christian. To neglect prayer is to fail in all efforts. Soul winning includes a spiritual battle that can only be won with God’s help. 4) A soul winner must be knowledgeable of Scripture. II Tim. 2:15 Heb. 10:25, I Peter 3: 15
- 7. Christians should not only read their Bibles but set aside at least two hours a week to do an in- depth study of the Bible. We should also try to memorize verses that will be useful in soul winning as well as other aspects of our Christian lives because we will never know what verses we will need when we witness to someone. It would be a shame if our prospect asks us some questions that we cannot answer.
- 8. 5) A soul winner must be patient: Psalm 126:5 Remember that if it seems your prospect turns you down it means that it is not yet the right time for him to believe the gospel. For some people, they only need to hear once and then they will readily receive Christ but for others it may take years or tens of years or decades.
- 9. 6) A soulwinner must be obedient to all the commands of God: Mat. 4:19 For God to use us, we must see to it that we are not guilty of the sins of commission and omission. Examples of sins of commission are engaging in vices, fornication, adultery, stealing, covetousness. Examples of sins of omission are not praying, reading our Bibles
- 10. Not giving tithes and offerings, showing a bad testimony, not going to church. Any form of disobedience will grieve the Holy Spirit so He will not bless our efforts. 7) A soul winner must not be ashamed: Mark. 8:38, Rom, 1:16, Rom. 9:33, 10;11 Every time there is an op= portunity to share the gospel and you feel ashamed or afraid, just go the Lord in prayer right then and there and God will give you boldness.
