19750223 His Internal Ministry - The Pertinence Of The Holy Spirit - Growing Inward Graces - Rev. Tommy Jones

What is the difference between #gifts of the Spirit and #graces or #fruit of the Spirit? And why is it fruit and not fruits? What do the first three graces have in common in terms of character? Why does Paul list off a laundry list of obnoxious works of the flesh right before he lists off the fruit of the Spirit? What is counterfeit fruit and from where does it come? Ahh, love – who doesn’t want that? What is its opposite work of the flesh? How does Satan confuse us with its counterfeit? What does the real fruit look like? What about joy and peace?

Posted on December 10, 2018 by Jeff Jones

The whole world is #divided. We see it all day every day at #work, at #school, and in the #news. It is solidly divided between Believers and non-believers. But, did you know that Christians are also divided between those that are filled with the Spirit and those who are not? What is a carnal Christian and how can you avoid being one? Is the Spirit filled Christian life just for a chosen few? Why should we be filled? How do we get filled? What are some misconceptions that we have about the Holy Spirit? How is the Spirit filling us similar but better than being intoxicated? What are five results that every Believer can expect from being filled with the Holy Spirit? Are you truly thirsty? What is the difference between a vessel and a channel?

THE LIVING GOD’S SAVOUR

Posted on December 7, 2018 by Barbara Jones

We detect #odors all around us. Some stores not only have #perfumes inside but spray their classic #scent outside to entice buyers to come inside. They give away small samples which they hope will make you want that aroma. I hate to tell you, but many of these artificial substances make me sneeze, whiz, and produce a whopper of a headache. Ever been there? I remember a family friend from my childhood would come through the door and give me a hug. I would hold my breath, because she reeked with garlic – it was on her breath, pores, and clothes. I was very aware of her presence. Dogs can sniff out a person’s trail by their noses for we all have a distinct chemistry. Have you ever contemplated that we have an odor to God? 11Corth.2:14-17 “Now thanks be unto GOD, who always causes us to TRIUMPH in CHRIST, and make MANIFEST the SAVOUR OF HIS KNOWLEDGE BY US IN EVERY PLACE. FOR WE ARE UNTO GOD A SWEET SAVOUR OF CHRIST in them that are saved and and them that perish; to the one we are the savour of death unto death; and to the other the savour of life unto life. Who is sufficient for these things: For we are not as many which corrupt the word of God; but as of sincerity, but as of God, in the sight of God speak we in Christ.” May we choose to follow the real true words of God and ask to be surrounded with the sweet savour of the blood of the LAMB Jesus Christ covering our sins with purification! Original ionization.!..

19750202 His Internal Ministry - The Performance Of The Holy Spirit - In Impartation, Initiation, and Implementation - Rev. Tommy Jones

Let’s talk about #Pentecost. How did it happen? When did it happen? What happened? Has it ever been repeated? Is there a difference between the event repeating and the experience being repeated? Is the Holy Spirit imparted to all believers equally? What was the significance of the signs of wind, fire, and tongues that accompanied the initiation of the Holy Spirit’s ministry on Earth? How was the Church born the day the Holy Spirit came down? What does that mean for the governance and guidance of the Church? All this power that was given to believers was meant to be implemented to witness. What proves that witnessing in our own strength is fruitless?

19741124 His Internal Ministry - The Performance Of The Holy Spirit - In Communication, Conviction, and Conversation - Rev. Tommy Jones

Last week, we heard about the role of the #HolySpirit in #history. This week, we hear about the current role He plays in our lives. How does the Holy Spirit communicate to us today? How do we know that the Bible is unique amongst all the other literature in the world? Where inspiration ended, illumination began. How does the Bible present differently to the critic and the one who is seeking? What is the difference between conviction by the conscience and that of the Holy Spirit? Is righteousness achieved by doing right? What choice does the Holy Spirit show us? Whose kingdom is finished and days are numbered? Whose work convinces us to ask ‘what must I do to be saved?’ Is it ever up to us to convert others to a saving belief in Jesus Christ? What role will the Holy Spirit play in the resurrection and glorification of believers in the future?

19741117 His Internal Ministry - The Performance Of The Holy Spirit - In Creation, Preparation, and Incarnation - Rev. Tommy Jones

Can we trace the existence and the work of the Holy Spirit from the #beginning until now? How doe we know the Holy Spirit was present and active at the Creation? What was/is His role in it? How did mankind receive the breath of Life? How does the Holy Spirit bring glory to God through us? How did the Spirit prepare the World for the coming of the Messiah? What are some examples of the Holy Spirit’s work in the Old Testament? Who do you think gave the prophets advance information about the Messiah beforehand? How did Jesus Christ come into this World or incarnated? Was Jesus helped throughout His ministry by the Holy Spirit? How about His death and resurrection? Can we also tap into that power?

His Internal Ministry – The Person of the Holy Spirit

19741110 His Internal Ministry - The Person Of The Holy Spirit - Rev. Tommy Jones

Today, we have the introduction of a series of messages on the #HolySpirit. John 14 teaches us that we need to know about all 3 persons of the one true #God. You may know God the Father and you may have accepted Jesus Christ the Son as your Lord and Savior, but do you know the person of the Holy Spirit. Without God’s Word, the Bible, it is improbable that you will strike the right balance. What harm is there in over or under emphasizing the Holy Spirit? What does it mean to be filled with the Spirit and to speak the Word with boldness? The next 12 messages are meant to enlighten and strengthen your Christian walk. Who is the Holy Spirit and what is His relationship with the Father and the Son? What capacities does the Bible tell us of His personality? Was He there at the Creation, how about the baptism of Jesus Christ? Is He a power or a person? Is He diety? Have you ever heard Him referred to as the Holy Ghost? Why is that an incorrect translation? Why doesn’t He have a more proper name like God or Jesus? What are seven pictures given to us of the Holy Spirit? What are His duties?
