To me Reinhard Bonnke is one of the greatest evangelists of all time. His crusade meetings and other initiatives have touched hundreds of millions of people. Great miracles from God accompany his clear and forthright presentations of Jesus and the cross of Christ. We can thank God for Reinhard Bonnke and his partners who together have done great things for God.

CHARACTER
When the Holy Spirit comes on you, a damp squib, a WlNh-out, will become a stick of dynamite. The impossible Will become possible.
I Samuel 8:4 tells us that Israel wanted a King:
So all the elders of Israel gathered together and came to Samuel at Ramah. They said to him, “You are old, and your sons do not walk in your ways; now appoint a King to lead us, such as all the other nations have.”
Samuel was displeased, that the people did not recognize the LORD as their King.
Impossible to Possible
The Lord Jesus was about to return to heaven. He knew He was leaving behind an unsaved world, nation upon nation that had not heard the gospel. Hugely different people with many different ways of thinking; a world full of problems and evil. Jesus had to hand over the responsibility of proclaiming the gospel to this world.
John taught often the power and importance of abiding in Jesus. Here he tells us how we can do this, and how we can be sure that we really are abiding in Jesus. God gives us confirmation that we are through His Spirit.
Jesus is our example. A big part of his ministry was in casting out demons. When the presence of the Lord is manifesting strongly enough, the demons in people start to stir up. Demons often have better knowledge and theology than those who are listening to the message, as we see from this passgae.
