Confessions about Thought Life

February 26, 2007 No Comments

I must be slow to anger.

I must also be quick to listen and slow to speak.

I will be slow to anger.

I will be quick to listen.

I will be slow to speak. (James 1:19)

I will not be so foolish as to get annoyed. (Proverbs 12:16)

It takes great understanding to be slow to anger. I lift up my voice for this understanding. I will not have a hasty temper, so as to exalt folly. (Proverbs 14:29; 2:1-4)

Anger is a work of the flesh. But I belong to Jesus and have crucified the flesh with its passions and desires.
(Galatians 5:20,24)

I must answer softly and not speak harshly.

Resisting Worry, Anxiety, Frustration

February 26, 2007 3 Comments

I cast all my anxieties (worries) upon the Lord, because He cares for me. 1Pet 5.7

I have no anxiety about anything, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving I let my requests be made known to God. Php 4.6

I do not fret or worry or get anxious because of wicked people. I am not envious of wrongdoers. Ps 37.1

I am still before the LORD, and wait patiently for him. I do not get uptight or worry over the one who prospers through dirty tricks and dishonest methods. Ps 37.7

I will hold myself from getting angry about this stuff.

How to Overcome Temptation

February 26, 2007 2 Comments

Satan will try to get me away from being filled with the Spirit, by offering in my mind temptations which appeal to the lust of the flesh, the lust of the eyes or the pride of life.

What should I do when I am aware of temptations?

1. Look to Jesus Christ. Try to force the mind off the temptation by looking to the Lord and His Word.

2. Immediately seek to be filled with the Holy Spirit.

3. Endeavour, if possible, to flee temptation.

4. Pray for the Lord not to lead me into temptation.

5. Use spiritual weapons where possible – speak the Word, praise God etc.

Ministering for the Glory of God

February 24, 2007 No Comments

I pray that in nothing I shall be ashamed, but with all boldness, as always, so now also Christ will be magnified in my body, whether be life or by death. (Philippians 1:20)

I pray that I will be a good and faithful servant of Christ, faithful over a few things and one day ruler over many. (Matthew 25:21)

I pray that I will be willing to carry around in the body the dying of the Lord Jesus, that the life of Jesus also may be manifested in my mortal flesh (2 Corinthians 4:10). For to me, to live is Christ, and to die is gain.

The Gifts of the Spirit

February 21, 2007 No Comments

We believe in the present day operation of the nine supernatural gifts of the Holy Spirit, as recorded in 1 Cor 12. We also believe in the ministry gifts of Christ, as recorded in Eph 4:11-13.

Introduction
It is amazing how difficult some jobs are without the proper tools. Can you imagine how difficult it would be to cut a piece of timber if you didn’t have a saw? Spiritual gifts are the tools that God has given us to enable us to be more effective in accomplishing the task of working with Him to build His church.

The Church – a lesson by Ps John Iuliano

February 20, 2007 No Comments

WE BELIEVE the Church is the body of Christ, the habitation of God through the Spirit, with divine appointments for the fulfillment of her great commission. Each believer, born of the Spirit is an integral part of the General Assembly and Church of the First-born which are written in heaven – (Eph 1:22,23; 2:22; Heb 12:23).

Introduction.

The average person’s response to the word ‘church’, is steeples, stained glass windows, and a huge pipe organ.

Salvation of Man

February 20, 2007 1 Comment

WE BELIEVE salvation is received through repentance toward God and faith in the Lord Jesus Christ. This experience is also known as the new birth and is an instantaneous and complete operation of the Holy Spirit whereupon the believing sinner is regenerated, justified, and adopted into the family of God and becomes a new creation in Christ Jesus, (Titus 2;11; 3:5-7; 1 Peter 1:23; 1 John 5:1) and an heir of eternal life.

Introduction.

The central message of the gospel is, “How man can be saved”.

The Holy Spirit

February 20, 2007 27 Comments

WE BELIEVE in the Holy Spirit, the third person of the triune Godhead, who proceeds from the Father and the Son, and is ever present and active in the work of convicting and regenerating the sinner, and sanctifying and guiding the believer into all truth. John 14:26; John 16:8-11; 1 Peter 1:2; Rom 8:14.

Introduction

So many people sincerely think of the Holy Spirit as a mere influence or power. They fail to see Him as a person with individual characteristics.
