God gives strategies to accomplish his visions, as he did with Joshua, Gideon, and Nehemiah. Ptr. Cesar Castellanos was given the strategy of the "4 Ladder of Success" (Win-Consolidate-Disciple-Send) to accomplish the vision of growing the G12 church. The 4 steps guarantee success if followed closely. To succeed, one must understand the strategy, own it in their heart, join in its strict implementation, and observe teamwork in following it.

Faith and Its importance in Christian Life: Steps to improve in Faith by Br...
This document discusses the importance of faith for Christians. It begins by explaining how faith brings spiritual things into the physical realm and is necessary to please God. It then discusses how modern ideas have reduced faith to being unimportant. Several philosophers are quoted questioning the existence of God. The document argues that faith is still important for Christians as the source of their strength and participation in God's plan. It provides several steps to improve one's faith such as feeding on God's word, acting on faith, and meditating on scripture. It concludes by emphasizing that humans are created to have a relationship with God through faith.
Knowing God's Will v1
The document provides an overview of seeking and knowing God's will. It discusses the different types of God's will, including his fulfilled will through Jesus, revealed will found in scripture, and specific will for individual lives. Fulfilling God's revealed will means placing Christ first, loving God, being thankful, making disciples, and living holy lives. Parents have a responsibility to bring up children in the discipline and instruction of the Lord. Living together as a Christ-centered family allows parents to instruct children according to scripture so they can shine as lights in the world.
Developing the heart of a servant!
Make Me A Servant
Make me a servant Lord, make me like you
For you are a servant, make me one, too.
Make me a servant, do what you must do
To make me a servant, make me like you.
To love my brother, to serve like you do.
I humble my spirit, I bow before yo.
And through my service, I'll be just like you.
So make me a servant, make me like you.
Open my hands Lord and teach me to share
Open my heart Lord and teach me to care,
For service to others is service to you.
Make me a servant, make me like you.
HOW GOD TESTS YOUR FAITH
God tests the faith of those he intends to use. The document discusses how God tested the faith of biblical figures like Noah, Abraham, and Moses through impossible tasks, major changes, delayed promises, unsolvable problems, senseless tragedies, and prolonged pain. Each test was an opportunity for their faith and endurance to grow. The lessons are that faith is believing without seeing, obeying without understanding, and persisting even when it's difficult.
Brokenness Journey
Brokenness is realizing the corruption of our natural selves and reliance on God. It is often triggered by difficult circumstances that break down our pride and self-sufficiency. Brokenness is a journey every believer must undertake, and it can be a breakthrough with a changed life. Though the pain depends on our response, God dwells with and revives the humble and contrite. True unity in the church comprises broken people committed to this process.
What is prayer
This document contains a prayer titled "As the Deer" set to the lyrics of Psalm 42. It then provides an overview of topics related to prayer including what prayer is, reasons for prayer, different types of prayer, and questions about effectively praying. The overview defines prayer as a relationship and communication with God, discusses why prayer is needed to recognize God and respond to His love, and covers specific types of prayer like adoration, contrition, thanksgiving, and supplication. It also addresses best practices for prayer including finding a suitable place and time as well as methods like private and public prayer.
The New Me!
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.

The Meaning Of Worship
Worship is a privilege unique to Christians that allows them to offer spiritual sacrifices acceptable to God through Jesus Christ. It is a means of obeying God's command to worship him alone, nourishing one's spirit, and encouraging spiritual growth in oneself and others. True worship shows where one's priorities lie, expresses love for God, and provides an avenue for praising his name through spiritual gifts while communing with and showing thankfulness to God alone.
Worship Lesson 3
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.
Sermon Slide Deck: "Life is Short..." (Luke 13:1-9)
There may be no more important time to turn to God than when things are going well in your life.
This message was given on May 1, 2016 at New City Church in Caglary by Pastor John Ferguson. For more info, please visit: www.newcitychurch.ca
Serving the Purpose of God
1) David served God's purpose in his generation by working humbly as a shepherd, fighting bravely against enemies of Israel like Goliath, waiting patiently for God to fulfill his promise of kingship, and leaving a godly legacy through his writings in the book of Psalms.
2) All Christians should seek to understand God's unique purpose and plan for their lives and serve Him faithfully in both their daily choices and through helping others learn about the gospel.
3) While God forgives sins, disobedience still has consequences; David's life provides an example of both God's forgiveness and the repercussions of wrongdoing.

A call to walk in holiness
This document calls Christians to walk in holiness and defines holiness as sanctity and purity. It explains that God calls us to be holy and commands us to be holy like Him. The Bible teaches that those with impure hearts cannot enter God's kingdom. The document uses Daniel as an example of someone who was committed to not defiling himself and as a result, received favor and protection from God. It provides steps to living in holiness, such as repenting, renouncing sin, and resisting temptation.
Pre Encounter Lesson 6: Go and Sin No More
This document provides 13 reasons why we need to stop sinning. It summarizes that sin does not satisfy, leads to more and worse sins, enslaves people, degrades them, steals their joy, hurts relationships, and blocks God's blessings. It asserts that God will punish sin in this life and the next. The document encourages stopping sin to avoid these negative consequences and regain confidence before God.
Worship Lesson 1
Worship is summarized as follows:
1. The document discusses who, why, what, how, when, and where of worship by examining biblical definitions rather than modern interpretations.
2. It argues that true worship is directed towards God alone, as revealed in scripture, and focuses on glorifying Him rather than oneself.
3. According to the Bible, true worship involves obeying God's commandments through studying His word, and praising Him for His works rather than one's own, with the goal of exalting Christ above all.
Trusting God in Tough Times
This document discusses how adversity can lead to blessings. It provides biblical examples of people like Job, John Bunyan, Joni Eareckson Tada, and Muhammad who experienced hardship but their response brought honor to God and helped others. Their struggles created opportunities for great blessings. It also suggests tough times can help us see God better, hear God more clearly, and draw closer to God. Rather than wasting sufferings, times of suffering can be opportunities for personal growth.
SFC - Clp talk 3 what it means to be a christian
The document discusses what it truly means to be a Christian. It argues that Christianity is not just a religious system of beliefs, moral system of dos and don'ts, or social/humanitarian system. Rather, the essence of Christianity is union with God through the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ. It is a relationship initiated by God's mercy and love, not by human works. In Christianity, believers become a new creation and participate in Christ's life. The goal is to seek God's kingdom and not worry about earthly things, as God provides for all needs. As children of God, Christians are brothers and sisters and their real citizenship is in heaven.
Armor of God
The document summarizes the full armor of God described in Ephesians 6:10-18. It explains each piece of armor: the belt of truth refers to relying on God's word as truth; the breastplate of righteousness protects the heart and comes from having a right standing with God through Jesus; peace in the gospel protects the feet; faith acts as a shield against attacks; salvation through Jesus protects the mind; and the sword of the Spirit, God's word, is used to fight spiritual battles. It emphasizes relying on God's power and truth rather than human understanding alone.
Total Evangelism
The document discusses various styles of evangelism that congregations and individual Christians can employ. It describes the confrontational style which directly presents the law and gospel message, the conversational style which focuses on developing friendships as a way to naturally share the gospel, the collegiate style which provides rational arguments for the Christian faith, the conformational style of sharing one's personal testimony, and the come and see style which invites unchurched people to church events to encounter the gospel. The pastor's role is to equip Christians in these various styles and provide opportunities for evangelism in the congregation.
a new life in christ
John 3:1-5. A New Life In Christ. In the new life we have been born again. In the new life we are a new creation. In the new life we crucify the flesh with its passions and desires. In the new life we are transformed by the renewing of our minds. In the new life we are renewed by the Holy Spirit. In the new life we are dead to sin but alive to God. In the new life we are washed from our sins. in the new life we put to death the old man and put on the new man. In the new life we died and our life is hidden with Christ in God. In the new life we were brought back from death in sin.
Be Useful Vessels
“Being used by God
is not confined to pastors, preachers or teachers. Anybody can be an instrument
in God's hands.”
God can use anybody, believer or nonbeliever.
Rick Warren: Purpose Driven Life Section2
The document is a response to someone saying they feel like a mistake and that no one loves them. It summarizes that:
1) While the person's parents may not have planned them, God did - he knew them and planned their life long before they were born.
2) God specifically created them, determined where and when they would be born, and made no mistakes.
3) God created them because he loves them and had them in mind even before the world was created.
11 The Person and Work of the Holy Spirit
The document discusses the person and work of the Holy Spirit according to scripture. It describes the Holy Spirit as the third person of the Trinity, who is eternal, omnipresent, omniscient, and omnipotent. The Holy Spirit works in believers to empower them, enable righteousness and fruit of the spirit, and give gifts to serve God and witness to others. Speaking in tongues is mentioned as a potential gift from being filled with the Holy Spirit.
The Word of God
The document discusses the divine origin, absolute truth, and sovereign accomplishing power of God's word. It argues that the Bible is inspired directly by God and contains his unfailing truth, as demonstrated through its divine consistency over many authors over centuries. God's word will achieve his purposes as he speaks things into existence and directs history according to his commands and truth contained in scripture.
Church Sermon: The Priority
This document discusses priorities and argues that God should be the highest priority according to the Bible. It begins by asking the reader to rank their priorities of family, self, God, and other people. It then defines priority as something that is of first importance or higher value. The document explains that the Bible provides the answer for what should be priority, calling it the "book of priorities." It gives three reasons from the Bible why God should be the priority: 1) God is the beginning of everything, 2) God is sovereign over everything, and 3) God is the end of everything. It concludes by urging the reader to make God their only priority in everything from beginning to end.
Power of Prayer
This document discusses the power of prayer. It makes several key points:
1) Prayer is one of the greatest powers available to Christians, as exemplified in scripture.
2) Christians are encouraged to pray often and continuously throughout the day, focusing on God and depending on Him.
3) Jesus was the ultimate example of one who prayed often and taught about the principles and importance of prayer.
4) Prayer brings Christians closer to God and each other, and helps maintain the right mindset of dependency on God.
5) God promises to hear and answer prayers according to His will, so Christians should have confidence in prayer's ability to change things.
23 marraige and_the_family
This document discusses the Seventh-day Adventist views on marriage, family, and divorce. It outlines that marriage was divinely established as a lifelong union between a man and a woman. Divorce is acceptable only in cases of adultery, and remarriage is prohibited while the divorced spouse is still living. Children are a blessing when raised in the knowledge of God. The family plays an important role in spiritual nurture and is intended to reflect the relationship between Christ and the church.
Consolidation: preserving the fruit
The document discusses the process of consolidation, which involves connecting new believers to Christ, a cell group, and the church. The consolidation process includes verification of salvation, allocation to a relational group, follow-up phone calls and visits, lessons for growth, and preparation for encounters. The goal is to establish relationships, provide guidance and teachings, and fully integrate new believers into the church through the consolidation bridge within 5 weeks.
Consolidation Presentation
The document discusses the benefits of exercise for mental health. Regular physical activity can help reduce anxiety and depression and improve mood and cognitive functioning. Exercise causes chemical changes in the brain that may help protect against mental illness and improve symptoms.

Conquest Message
The document outlines three things that must be done to obey God and be successful in conquest:
1. Consecrate oneself by purifying one's heart and setting one's life apart for God's mission.
2. Calendarize priority commitments such as daily devotion, cell group meetings, and assignments.
3. Concentrate on winning souls this week by learning soul winning skills, knowing when someone is genuinely born again, explaining salvation doctrines clearly, and praying with others to accept salvation.
Cell Church Models
The document discusses different cell church models, including the Jethro structure and G12 model. The Jethro structure organizes cells geographically into zones, districts, and regions. Each cell has around 10 members and multiplies when reaching 12 members. The G12 model focuses on evangelism and cell planting, with each member aiming to start their own cell of 12. The document also proposes a combined J12 model that maintains the Jethro structure but applies principles from the G12 like viewing all members as potential leaders and rapidly growing new cells.
Advantages Of The G12 Ray Clemente
The document outlines 12 advantages of the G12 strategy for church organization and growth:
1. Leadership is developed as many members take on roles rather than one person doing all the work.
2. Pastoring becomes more effective as the church transforms from being centered on one person to being maintained by managers and employees at different levels.
3. The church grows exponentially rather than geometrically as each member takes on the role of leading others to Christ.
4. Commitment increases as members are more involved in ministry and serving through their cell groups.
5. The senior pastor is freed up to focus on their duties as members take responsibility for pastoral duties in their groups.

Keeping Up The Pursuit Of Victory
1. Gideon and his 300 men pursued the kings of Midian, Zebah and Zalmunna, despite being exhausted from battle.
2. When Gideon asked the men of Succoth and Peniel for food and supplies, they refused to help his weary troops.
3. Undaunted, Gideon continued pursuing the kings with their 15,000 men despite being outnumbered 50 to 1, trusting in God's promise of victory.
G12 fruitful living, christian discipleship
The document summarizes a parable told by Jesus about a farmer sowing seeds. In the parable, some seeds fell on the path and were eaten by birds, some on rocky ground withered quickly, and some among thorns were choked out. However, seeds that fell on good soil produced a hundred times more crops. The document then explains the meaning - that the seed represents the word of God, and the different soil types represent different responses to the word: some reject it, some accept it temporarily but fall away, and some accept it and produce a abundant spiritual fruit.
Encounter Call Sheet
The document is a call sheet for a photo shoot for Encounter Magazine, an indie rock magazine targeted at ages 13 and up. It provides details of the shoot such as the location, a studio, the cast and crew including the photographer and models, their roles and work times. It also lists the equipment and props needed for the shoot including a camera, lighting, and accessories like a book and headphones.

EED - The Container Port PERFORMANCE INDEX 2023
El Puerto de Algeciras continúa un año más como el más eficiente del continente europeo y vuelve a situarse en el “top ten” mundial, según el informe The Container Port Performance Index 2023 (CPPI), elaborado por el Banco Mundial y la consultora S&P Global.
El informe CPPI utiliza dos enfoques metodológicos diferentes para calcular la clasificación del índice: uno administrativo o técnico y otro estadístico, basado en análisis factorial (FA). Según los autores, esta dualidad pretende asegurar una clasificación que refleje con precisión el rendimiento real del puerto, a la vez que sea estadísticamente sólida. En esta edición del informe CPPI 2023, se han empleado los mismos enfoques metodológicos y se ha aplicado un método de agregación de clasificaciones para combinar los resultados de ambos enfoques y obtener una clasificación agregada.
