The document provides an overview of biblical prophecies concerning the church and how they were fulfilled:
- Old Testament prophets like Isaiah, Daniel, and Joel prophesied the establishment of God's kingdom/house in Jerusalem, which would come with the outpouring of the Holy Spirit. These prophecies were fulfilled on the day of Pentecost with the establishment of the early church.
- Jesus proclaimed that the kingdom of God was at hand and promised to build His church. He commanded His followers to preach the gospel to all nations starting from Jerusalem.
- After His resurrection, Jesus ascended into heaven and reigns as King over His kingdom, the church, from heaven. Individual Christians comprise the
The document discusses the concept of faith as presented in the Bible. It provides several examples from Scripture of people who lived by faith, including Enoch, Noah, Abraham, Moses, and others. It also examines what it means to have the faith of Jesus Christ and discusses how faith involves trusting in God's promises without seeing their fulfillment.
God instructs Isaiah to comfort God's people with three messages: 1) God is sovereign and in control, even during difficult times. 2) God will fulfill his purposes, such as forgiving Israel and sending a Redeemer. 3) God will sustain his people, though all humanity is transitory except God's eternal word. The prophecy looks forward to Israel's restoration after the coming exile.
The document describes a situation in the early Christian church where Greek-speaking widows were being overlooked in the daily distribution of food. The twelve disciples appointed seven men, including Stephen, to oversee the distribution so that the disciples could focus on preaching. Stephen performed great signs and wonders but also encountered opposition from religious leaders. He was eventually falsely accused of blasphemy and brought before the Jewish high council, where he gave a speech defending his faith before being martyred.
The document discusses the everlasting gospel and the three angels' messages of Revelation 14. It explains that the everlasting gospel will be preached worldwide before the end comes. It also discusses how those who reject this gospel by worshipping the beast and receiving his mark will drink the wine of God's wrath. The document explores how Jesus willingly took the cup of God's wrath upon himself to redeem humanity from sin, even though he was sinless, in order to bring forgiveness through the everlasting gospel.
The document provides an overview and analysis of Ezekiel 1. It begins by explaining the context around Ezekiel's vision, which took place while he was living in captivity by the River Chebar in Babylon. Ezekiel then sees a vision of God appearing as a whirlwind with fire and brightness coming from the north. Within this vision were four living creatures that had features of a man, lion, ox, and eagle. The living creatures are identified as cherubim. The document analyzes the symbolism and meaning behind various elements of Ezekiel's vision.
The document provides an overview and analysis of Isaiah 49:1-13. It summarizes that:
1) The passage promises comfort for God's people and the coming of a Messiah who will be a servant and bring salvation to all nations.
2) Jesus fulfills the prophecies as the suffering servant who is called and named by God from birth to be a light to the Gentiles.
3) The passage prophesies that the servant will be rejected but later worshipped, establish a new covenant, and guide God's people to salvation.

This document provides an overview of prophets in biblical history and the establishment of schools of prophets. It discusses how God raised up prophets like Abraham and Moses to lead the nation of Israel. It describes how Samuel established schools of prophets during the monarchial period in Israel to provide divine guidance after they asked for a king. The purpose of the schools was to train young men as prophets and teachers to instruct people in God's ways and counter corruption. The document analyzes early prophetic cases and the evolution of the prophet's role over time.
The document discusses how Moses and the writings of Moses provide an authentic foundation for biblical teachings about creation, redemption, the sanctuary services, health reform, and righteousness by faith. It provides numerous biblical references showing how Moses' writings and teachings were accepted and followed by figures like Joshua, Samuel, the kings of Israel, Ezra, Nehemiah, and Jesus himself who expounded on "Moses and all the prophets". False prophets are contrasted who prophesied lies instead of what was written by Moses and the true prophets.
The document discusses the sanctuary message and the three angels' messages from Revelation. It examines the symbolism of the seven churches and their relationship to the history of the church. A key point is that Jesus entered the most holy place of the heavenly sanctuary in 1844 to begin the judgment, as foreshadowed in the earthly sanctuary services. This judgment will determine who will be saved and lost as represented by the churches of Philadelphia and the synagogue of Satan.
Updates and Scenarios on the Signs of the TimesButch Yulo
The document discusses signs of the times and events that refer to the second coming of Jesus and the end of the age. It explains that signs of the times refers to signs signaling Jesus' return and the transition from the old world to the new. Some key signs mentioned include natural signs like earthquakes, famines, and disturbances in the sun, moon, and stars. It also discusses political, spiritual, and moral signs to watch for, as well as the rise of the Antichrist and emergence of the 666 system. The document encourages readers to watch for these signs but not to set dates, and to stay ready at all times for Jesus' return.
The Powerpoint outlines for this series of lessons on The Great Commission were downloaded from the Duluth, GA Church of Christ website at: http://www.churchofchristduluthga.org/sermons.php
I Corinthians 14:37-38 God does not want us to be ignorant of concern for others, God's righteousness, the hardening of Israel, the possibility of our falling, spiritual gifts, what others do for us, Satan's Devices, the resurrection.
The three angels' messages of Revelation 14 warn of God's judgment and call people to worship only Him as Creator. The first angel calls people to fear God and give glory to Him. The second warns that Babylon is fallen and people must come out of false worship systems. The third warns that those who worship the beast and receive its mark will face God's wrath, while those who keep God's commandments and faith in Jesus will be saved. The messages reflect core teachings of the sanctuary message and God's end-time remnant. However, compromising their uncompromising truth to appeal to pluralism would ignore God's warnings.
This passage from Isaiah 58 discusses God's condemnation of empty worship rituals among his people that are not accompanied by righteous living and care for the oppressed. God explains that true worship requires loosening bonds of wickedness, sharing with the hungry, and clothing the naked. The prophet Isaiah lived during a time of rebuilding after the exile when the temple had been reconstructed but the city walls remained in ruins. God promises blessings of light, guidance, strength, and renewal for those who repent from sin and pursue justice. The sermon references other passages emphasizing that God desires mercy over sacrifice and that true salvation will come through God himself acting as righteous judge and redeemer through the coming Messiah.
1) The document discusses Isaiah 53, which prophesies the coming of Jesus as the suffering servant who would bear the sins of humanity.
2) It analyzes various verses from Isaiah 53 that describe Jesus' humble upbringing, rejection, suffering, and death on the cross in fulfillment of these prophecies.
3) The author argues that the chapter paints a clear picture of Jesus and his redemptive work, though some Jewish people did not accept that it referred to him.
The document discusses the future reign of Christ on earth based on passages from Isaiah, Psalms, Ezekiel, and Revelation. It describes the main features of the future millennial kingdom as an earthly kingdom where Christ will reign for 1000 years after His second coming. Resurrected saints from all ages will reign with Christ on earth and assist in His rule. The kingdom will be a time of peace and prosperity without evil or harm.
The document discusses the three angels' messages of Revelation 14:6-12. It provides context on the book of Revelation and explains that an angel delivers God's messages to humanity. The three angels' messages concern worshipping God as creator, leaving Babylon, and warnings about worshipping the beast. The document urges believers to proclaim these universal messages as part of God's final appeal to humanity.

CHRISTIAN SUPERNATURAL TEACHINGS, BIBLE CLASS LESSONS, GOSPELS BY LEADER OLUMBA OLUMBA OBU, THE SUPERNATURAL TEACHER AND SOLE SPIRITUAL HEAD, BROTHERHOOD OF THE CROSS AND STAR
The document provides information about the Hebrew sanctuary and its significance. It discusses the four compartments of the Hebrew sanctuary: 1) the encampment, 2) the courtyard, 3) the holy place, and 4) the most holy place (ark of the covenant). Each compartment held furnishings that served as object lessons pointing to Jesus' ministry. The courtyard represented repentance and reconciliation. The holy place represented sanctification. The ark of the covenant represented glorification. The sanctuary pattern reveals Jesus' work as high priest in both the earthly and heavenly sanctuaries. Understanding this message is key to following Jesus' progression through the heavenly sanctuary.
The document summarizes many Old Testament prophecies about the coming Messiah and shows how Jesus fulfilled them through events in his life, death, and resurrection. Specifically, it discusses prophecies that the Messiah would be born in a stable, rejected by his own people, silent before accusers, mocked, crucified with thieves, pray for his persecutors, have his hands and feet pierced, be buried in a rich man's tomb, and have his garments divided and lots cast for them. It also discusses prophecies of his resurrection, ascension to heaven, sitting at God's right hand, and being cut off 483 years after the decree to rebuild Jerusalem.
The document provides a summary of the progression of sin from the days of Adam and Eve up until the present time. It discusses how Adam and Eve's disobedience in the garden led to humanity being cast out and death being introduced. It highlights the faithfulness of Enoch and Noah in contrast to the increasing lawlessness and wickedness of their generations. The document suggests that today's church has reached a similar state of apostasy and accommodation of sin as in Noah's day. It emphasizes the need for holiness and walking with God in order to be ready for Christ's return.
The document discusses the history and importance of the sanctuary. It begins with God speaking through nature and symbols to humanity. It then outlines the three books that revealed God's plan: 1) Creation 2) The Sanctuary 3) The Bible. It provides details on the earthly sanctuary from the time of Moses, through the tabernacle and temples, highlighting how it represented the heavenly sanctuary and God's presence among his people. It stresses the importance of understanding the sanctuary message as it reveals the plan of salvation and illuminates past, present and future truth.
Prayer with Fasting, The Fasted LifestyleButch Yulo
This document discusses prayer and fasting. It begins by recalling Exodus 19 where God appeared to the Israelites on Mount Sinai. It then shows pictures of Mount Sinai today, which is still burnt from God's presence. This establishes that God's glory was real.
It discusses how Jesus taught his disciples to pray to God as their loving Father. This was revolutionary since Jews never addressed God this way. Jesus also taught they could ask the Father for the Holy Spirit. The Lord's Prayer outlines all aspects of life.
The document contrasts prayer as talking to the Father, versus interceding before God as priests. It suggests intercession requires more earnest prayer, as seen in how Paul and others prayed fervently for
The document discusses Satan's defilement of God's heavenly and earthly sanctuaries throughout history from the Garden of Eden to the Christian era. It describes how Satan used deception to beguile Adam and Eve in Eden, leading to their expulsion. In the Jewish era, God dwelt among Israel in the tabernacle and temple. The document asserts that in the Christian era, Satan sought to deceive Christians in the seven churches and ultimately the church of Laodicea, which had become lukewarm.
Jesus concludes his Sermon on the Mount by likening those who hear his words but do not act on them to a foolish man who builds his house on sand. In contrast, those who hear and obey are like a wise man who builds on rock. After finishing the sermon, Jesus impresses the crowds with his authoritative teaching. He then begins a second tour of Galilee, preaching the gospel of the kingdom and healing the sick. During this time, he raises the son of a widow from the dead in the village of Nain, demonstrating his power over death.

Ha62 09272015 why i love the church of christ part5James Bradshaw
This document summarizes a sermon about why the author loves the Church of Christ. The main points are:
1) Jesus Christ is the head of the Church of Christ. As its head, the mission of the Church is the same as Jesus' mission - to seek and save the lost.
2) Jesus Christ built the Church of Christ and he has all authority. He gave the apostles the power to bind and loose on earth.
3) Jesus Christ paid for and cleansed the Church of Christ with his own blood. Believers are cleansed of their sins through baptism.
1) On the day of Pentecost, as prophesied, the Holy Spirit came upon the apostles with power, fulfilling Jesus' promise.
2) Peter preached to the crowd about Jesus' death and resurrection, calling them to repent and be baptized for forgiveness of sins.
3) About 3,000 people responded to the message and were added to the church that day, marking its beginning with God's power, as he had planned.

This document discusses the identity of Jesus. It examines common beliefs that Jesus was merely a good man, prophet, or sub-god. However, it concludes that Jesus is fully God based on several facts: Jesus created all things; the Father calls Jesus God and Lord; Jesus is the God who spoke to people in the Old Testament; and Jesus' words and actions in the New Testament show He claimed to be God.
CHRISTIAN SUPERNATURAL TEACHINGS, BIBLE CLASS LESSONS, GOSPELS BY LEADER OLUMBA OLUMBA OBU, THE SUPERNATURAL TEACHER AND SOLE SPIRITUAL HEAD, BROTHERHOOD OF THE CROSS AND STAR
The document discusses the works of the Holy Spirit based on passages from the Bible. It describes three main works: 1) The Holy Spirit empowers believers to be witnesses for Christ and obey God's word. 2) The Holy Spirit sanctifies and makes believers holy through offering their bodies as living sacrifices. 3) The Holy Spirit teaches believers and guides them into truth. The conclusion exhorts guarding the truth entrusted by the Holy Spirit living within.
The document discusses how Christ was recognized as the head of the early church. It provides several biblical passages that show Jesus being declared Lord and the foundation of the church by his disciples. The apostles were seen as ambassadors of Christ who spread his message through their preaching and teaching. The written and spoken word of scripture and the apostles' teachings were considered authoritative by the early church. Believers were to adhere to the gospel that had been proclaimed to them and not accept any contrary or altered teachings.
The document discusses the importance of complete obedience to God's commands based on biblical examples. It provides several examples from the Old and New Testaments of individuals who fully obeyed God's commands, such as Noah and Abraham. It also gives examples of partial obedience that was displeasing to God, such as King Saul sparing captives against God's instructions. The document emphasizes that anything less than full obedience to all that God commands is not true obedience. It then discusses the definition and importance of understanding the church that Jesus Christ established based on New Testament teachings.
M2013 s18 stop it you will hurt yourself 3 10-13James Bradshaw
Saul was persecuting Christians and seeking to harm the church. One day, Saul had a vision of Jesus speaking to him, and Jesus said "why do you persecute me?". This experience left Saul trembling and astonished. Jesus instructed Saul to go to the city, where he would be told what to do. Saul went on to become the apostle Paul, one who spread the gospel of Christ.
The document discusses how God speaks to His people through the Holy Spirit. It outlines that God spoke through prophets like Moses, Samuel and Isaiah in the past. Now, God speaks through His Son, Jesus Christ, and the Holy Spirit. The Holy Spirit guides believers and gives them gifts like wisdom, healing and prophecy. When the Holy Spirit descended at Pentecost, the disciples were able to preach boldly and perform signs. Believers can still hear God's voice today through reading the Bible, prayer, visions and the Spirit's prompting.
John receives a vision of Jesus Christ on the island of Patmos. In the vision, Jesus appears as a glorious figure surrounded by symbols of his divine and kingly nature. He instructs John to write down the revelations he receives in a book and send it to the seven churches of Asia Minor. Jesus comforts the fearful John by reminding him of his resurrection and that he holds power over death. He then explains the meaning of the symbols to John.

The document discusses what it means to be filled with the Holy Spirit based on passages from the Bible. It describes how the disciples were initially filled with the Holy Spirit and empowered on the day of Pentecost. It also discusses how believers can experience an ongoing filling through obeying God, asking for the Holy Spirit, and having faith. The results of being filled include encouraging others, having songs of praise, being grateful, serving, understanding family relationships, and more.
The document discusses the biblical basis for the Christian doctrine of the Trinity - that God exists as three persons (Father, Son, Holy Spirit) who are distinct yet united as one God. It provides several biblical passages that reference the three persons of the Trinity and their distinct roles. The Genesis creation account refers to God in plural form, alluding to the Trinity. The Father created through the Son and by the power of the Holy Spirit. Jesus was baptized by the Holy Spirit, and believers are also baptized by the Spirit. The Spirit, Son, and Father are united in purpose yet distinct in their speaking and actions. Believers are to be led by the Spirit as Jesus and disciples were filled with the Spirit.
_MINISTRY_Encounter #3_Presence of the Holy SpiritRohan Dredge
In this, the third installment of the ENCOUNTER Series Rohan takes you through how the Holy Spirit was present and worked through people in the Old Testament and then on into the New Testament. Notice the shift in the activity of the Holy Spirit as He comes upon people in the OT for specific tasks and is poured out on all people in the NT.
This message is thick with scriptures as we unpack explore the specific role of the Holy Spirit in the OT and the shift in dispensation in the NT.
Landing on the big idea that “awareness of his presence enables access to his power.” Take some time to become aware of the places in your life where you need the Holy Spirit to come upon you in fullness and power. Ask God to make that real to you right now.
Enjoy beginning to walk with and relate personally to the Holy Spirit as your guide and best friend.

The document outlines Living Hope's vision for the future, which is to be a Spirit-filled church that loves God and has a passion for reaching the lost. The vision is based on biblical principles of loving God and others, making disciples of all nations, and being witnesses to the ends of the earth through the power of the Holy Spirit. The church aims to care more about those outside the building and commit itself to the greatest evangelism through relying on God's Spirit, not its own power.
1) Jesus appeared to his disciples after his resurrection and commanded them to go into all the world and make disciples by teaching, baptizing, and obeying all that he had taught.
2) He gave them authority and power through the Holy Spirit to be his witnesses from Jerusalem to the ends of the earth.
3) The disciples were motivated by witnessing Jesus' empty tomb and his appearances over 40 days, which proved his resurrection and authority over all things.
The document discusses the author's religious beliefs, which are based on passages from the Bible. It believes that Jesus Christ is God who came in the flesh to fulfill the salvation plan. It discusses principles like there being one God, the importance of knowing and loving God by understanding his word, and that salvation comes through repentance, baptism in Jesus' name, and receiving the Holy Spirit. It also expresses beliefs around losing salvation, the rapture occurring after the tribulation period, and that Jesus will return visibly to gather the elect.

This document tells a story about a man who was calling out to God but failing to recognize how God was responding. God spoke to the man through a singing bird, thunder, a shining star, and the birth of the man's son, but each time the man did not listen or understand. Finally, God touched the man's cheek with a butterfly, but the man brushed it away without comprehending. The moral is that God speaks to us in many ways, but we must have open senses to recognize His communications.
The document discusses prophecies from the Old Testament that foretold characteristics of the Messiah which were fulfilled by Jesus in the New Testament. It provides several examples of prophecies about the Messiah being born of a virgin, born in Bethlehem, descended from Abraham and King David, and more that were fulfilled by Jesus. The purpose seems to be showing how Jesus fulfilled Messianic prophecies and was the promised Messiah.
This document discusses the development of human senses from an embryo to adulthood and compares it to the development of spiritual senses. It notes that each of the five physical senses - touch, taste, smell, hearing, and sight - emerge at different points in fetal and infant development. It then explores how each spiritual sense - touch, taste, smell, hearing, and sight - relates to discerning spiritual truths and realities. The document emphasizes that regularly exercising our spiritual senses through reading Scripture, prayer, and obedience helps them to mature so we can better distinguish good from evil.
The three persons involved in the act of prophesying. God, the giver of the word. The person receiving from God to transmit the word. The final receiver.
Prophecy is speaking out the mind of God under divine inspiration. It involves edifying, exhorting, and comforting people by restoring God's image in them, showing them God's plans, and communicating how God sees them. True prophecy comes from being Christ-centered and having one's heart filled with God's love, which is then poured out to others. Several scriptures are presented that declare God's promises of forgiveness, blessings, healing, and deliverance. The document encourages activating these prophecies by declaring them over others and concludes with a prayer for revelation, transformation, and effectiveness in prophetic ministry.
The document provides information about ambassadors from several sources including dictionaries and examples. It defines an ambassador as an official envoy, especially a high-ranking diplomat, sent by a country to represent them in another country. Joseph Grew and Kichisaburō Nomura are discussed as the ambassadors of the US and Japan respectively who worked to prevent war between the two countries before the attack on Pearl Harbor. The document also discusses how Christians can take on the role of ambassadors for Christ by knowing God's message, having wise and persuasive communication, and living virtuous lives that represent the kingdom of heaven.
The document discusses the biblical Feast of Tabernacles (Sukkoth). It describes how the feast commemorates the harvest and the Israelites' 40 years wandering in the desert. During the feast, Israelites built temporary shelters (sukkot) and lived in them for 7 days. At the Temple, priests performed rituals like pouring water and sacrificing 70 bulls to atone for the nations. The feast points to God dwelling with his people and the future ingathering of all nations when the Messiah returns.
The Feast of Trumpets, also known as Yom Teruah or Rosh Hashanah, marks the Jewish New Year according to the biblical calendar. It commemorates the beginning of the fall harvest season and prophetically points to end times events in God's plan of salvation. The blowing of the trumpet on this feast is likened to the last trumpet that will sound at the rapture of the church, gathering believers to meet the returning Jesus in the air. The 100 trumpet blasts, with the final one longest, picture the trumpet blast announcing Christ's second coming to earth to establish his kingdom.
This document provides an overview of a prophetic night event focused on discussing and prophesying from passages in the book of Isaiah. Participants will explore selected scriptures from their own point of view and compare to biblical commentary. They will share what striking points they find in each passage and discuss ideas emerging from the scriptures. The last hour will involve prophesying over each other. The document includes an opening prayer asking God to help activate prophetic gifts to lovingly represent him, renew minds to have his thoughts and insights, and for mouths to overflow with living waters to soak others in love. Passages on being engraved on God's hands and finding one's wilderness/desert are included to recognize new things, with definitions requested
Jewish people celebrate Shavuot and the harvest of wheat, while Christians celebrate Pentecost and the harvest of the church. Both holidays commemorate the giving of the law at Mount Sinai and the empowering of believers by the Holy Spirit. Pentecost marks when the Holy Spirit descended upon the disciples in tongues of fire, empowering the early church and inaugurating the age of grace.
The document discusses the power of God's spoken word based on revelations the author received from listening to the song "So Will I (100 Billion X)". The author was amazed at receiving revelation from the song's lyrics and realized this showed how much more powerful it is to receive revelation directly from reading and meditating on the Bible itself. The song's lyrics are then included, praising God as the creator of all things and for His salvation through Jesus' death and resurrection.
The document discusses three instances in the Bible where the windows of heaven were opened. Each time, an abundance was poured out from heaven. The first was during Noah's flood, when God opened the windows of heaven to bring judgment through a torrential downpour. The second was when windows opened to transfer natural resources, changing a famine situation into a surplus. The third was when windows opened to pour out spiritual blessings too abundant to contain. Opening the windows of heaven signifies God releasing his abundant provision and blessing from the heavenly realm.
The document discusses spiritual harvest and encourages the reader to be ready. It notes that God has sowed seeds in the reader's "field" through prophetic words, blessings, and other means. These seeds have grown roots and blossoms and it is now time for harvest. The reader is encouraged to identify the different "lines of crops" or fruits of the spirit within themselves. Finally, it reminds the reader that God has prepared good works for them and they should look for opportunities to use their gifts, as this is part of the seeds sown in them. The reader is told to ensure their "silo" or spiritual storage is ready to keep the harvest.
The document discusses biblical meanings of various numbers. It notes that the number 7 represents completion or perfection. Genesis 7:23 describes the biblical flood wiping out all life except those on Noah's ark. Genesis 17:11-12 says circumcision of males should occur on the 8th day as a sign of God's covenant. Colossians 2:11 and John 20:26 also reference the importance of the 8th day. The document asserts that 800 represents being "fully put off" from the old, carnal nature. It lists ages that people in the Bible lived to be, many reaching 800-1000 years.
We can use the power of the blood of Jesus for our benefit. Claiming His blood daily, builds up a shield of protection around you, your household and your ministry.
The Book of Samuel is a book in the Hebrew Bible, found as two books in the Old Testament. The book is part of the Deuteronomistic history, a series of books that constitute a theological history of the Israelites and that aim to explain God's law for Israel under the guidance of the prophets.

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

Scripture, He direct us the way to go.

the sins of any, they are retained.”

utterance.

on God and saying, “Lord Jesus, receive my
